Answer:11.7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Recognize variables. Starting price is 9, it’s increasing by 1.5% each year, the question asks for the price in 20 years.
2. Convert percentage to decimal. Most calculators won’t understand multiplying by percentages, and instead will understand multiplying by decimals. A decimal is something we can easily work with. It is more commonly taught to work with decimals as well. With that said 1.5% equals .015. (The number in the ones place in the percentage is always in the hundredths place when converted to a decimal, the tens to the tenths, the hundreds in the percentage to the ones place in the decimal, the hundredths in the percentage to the ten thousandths in the decimal. Basically, every individual number [the 5 in 1.5] moves two spaces to the right when going from percentage to decimal form, likewise two to the left going from decimal to percentage form. 23%=.23, 104%=1.04, 0.5%=.05, 1.234%=.01234)
3. Make your equation
20(9*(.015))+9
+9 is your starting point
9*(.015) gives you the amount the price increases per year
20 is multiplied then to that increased price for the next 20 years
4. Crunch em numbers
PEMDAS
Answer:
positive
Step-by-step explanation:
I need to see the diagrams to tell you.
Answer:
D)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 -14x -72
0=x^2 - 14x-72
0=x^2 - 18x+4x-72
0=x(x-18)+4(x-18)
0=(x-18)(x+4)
x-18=0 or x+4=0
x1=18 or x2=-4
asis of symmetry: x=(x1+x2)/2
x=(18+(-4))/2
x=14/2
x=7
5. You have correctly shown the decimal equivalents of the numbers in selection C. Those are in order. The decimal equivalents for selection D would be
... -1.33, -2.00, -1.00, -0.08, -0.07
The first of these is greater than the second of these, so this list is not in order. The correct choice is D.
6. √169 = 13, the only rational number in the lot. The correct choice is C.
8. All the numbers except the ones with radicals are rational numbers, so the appropriate choice is the one that lists the radicals only: G.
9. You have correctly plotted the points. When you connect them to make a geometric figure, you get a triangle that is 6 units high and 6 units wide. Its area will be half that of a square that is 6×6, so is 18 square units.
_____
The formula for the area of a triangle is
... A = (1/2)bh
where b is the base length of the triangle (6 units), and h is the height (6 units). Filling in the numbers you have, this is
... A = (1/2)·6·6 = 18 . . . . square units.
When you have a plot like this on a graph, it is usually pretty easy to see that the triangle area is half the area of a rectangle (or square) with the same height and width.
