Answer:

Percentage Increase = 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage increase, we will use the formula below;

Percentage Increase = \frac{Increase}{Initial cost}  ×   100%

From the question given,  the initial cost = $ 135

Now, we need to find the increase;

Increase = $216 - $135 = $81

We can now proceed to insert the values and then simplify;

Percentage Increase = \frac{Increase}{Initial cost}  ×   100%

                                    =\frac{81}{135}  ×   100%

                                        =\frac{8100}{135} %

                                        =60%

Percentage Increase = 60%

Answer:

60% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out the difference increase between the two numbers you are comparing.Then you increase the new number by the original number. Next you divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. Finally divide the increase number and the original number then multiply by 100. That will give you your answer.

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-1,4) and having slope m=-3
timurjin [86]

Answer:

y = -3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with the point (-1, 4) and the slope m = -3, write out the point-slope equation of a straight line:  y - k = m(x - h) becomes y - 4 = -3(x + 1), or:

y = -3x - 3 + 4

y = -3x + 1    This is the same as answer choice (b).

2. El perimetro de un rectangulo es 64 pies. Su largo es 12 pies mas que 3 veces su ancho. Halla las dimensiones del rectangulo
Afina-wow [57]
Ancho= x
Largo= 3x+12 ("12 pies más (adición) que 3 veces (multiplicación) su ancho (x)")

<span>En el problema incluyen el perímetro (la suma de todos los lados de una figura). </span>En un rectángulo, los lados opuestos son congruentes, así que para calcular el valor de x, tenemos que sumar nuestras ecuaciones.

(3x+12)+(3x+12)+x+x=64
8x=64-24
x=40/8
x=5

Luego lo único que queda hacer es substituir el valor de x en cada ecuación para calcular los valores que te piden.
