Answer:

50% ( rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to find the percentage decrease in the price of the bottle of water.

To do this, what we do is that we subtract the new price from the old price, then we divide the result by the old price and multiply the result by 100.

Mathematically,

Percentage decrease in price = (old price- new price)/old price * 100%

Percentage decrease in price= (2.65-1.4)/2.65 * 100%

1.25/2.65 * 100% = 47.2%

We were asked to round to the nearest tenth of a percent. This brings our answer to 50%

Answer:

47.2 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial price, P1 = 2.65

Final price, P2 = 1.40

% price decrease = change in price/initial price × 100

Change in price = P1 - P2

= 2.65 - 1.40

= 1.25

% decrease = 1.25/2.65 × 100

= 47.2 %

Answer:

(x,y) --> (x+4, y-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

A is correct. B can be represented as x+4, y - 5 because the x values shifted 4 to the right (a positive shift so x+4) and the y values shifted 5 down (a negative shift so y-5)

The box plots show the math scores of students in two different classes. Based on the box plots, which statement is correct?
Allisa [31]

Based on the box plots, the statement which is correct is that: A. The median score of Class A is greater than the median score of Class B.

<h3>What is a box and whisker plot?</h3>

In Mathematics, a box plot is also referred to as box and whisker plot and it can be defined as a type of chart that can be used to graphically or visually represent the five-number summary of a data set with respect to locality, skewness, and spread.

Additionally, the five-number summary of any box plot (box and whisker plot) include the following:

  1. Minimum
  2. First quartile
  3. Median
  4. Third quartile
  5. Maximum

By critically observing the box plot (box and whisker plot) which represent the math scores of students in in two different classes, we can reasonably and logically deduce the following median scores;

Median score of class A = 80

Median score of class B = 75

Therefore, a median score of 80 in Class A is greater than the median score of 75 in Class B.

Explain how modeling partial products can be used to find the products of greater numbers.
beks73 [17]
<span>It is easier to multiply. For example: 63 multiply by 7
</span><span>63 x 7 = (60+3) x 7 =  60 x 7 + 3 x 7 =  420 + 21  =  441
</span>
Another example : <span>25 x 73
</span>25 x 73 = (20+5) x (70+3) = 20 x 70 + 20x3 + 5x70 + 5x3

                                         = 1400 + 60 + 350 + 15           =  1875

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The angle measure is 111 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles confined within a circle and a square will be equal to 180. In this case, since angle Z is equal to 69, angle x is 180.
