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.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The value of DC is 66.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles ABC and DCA are right angled triangles.

The straight line AC is a bisector for angles C and A.

The measure of ∠C is 30°.

Then the measure of angles BCA and ACD will be 15° each.

The measure of angle DAB is 150°.

Then the measure of angles DAC and BAC will be 75° each.

Now consider the right angled triangle ABC.

The measure of side AC is:

AC^{2}=AB^{2}+BC^{2}\\AC=\sqrt{AB^{2}+BC^{2}}\\=\sqrt{4^{2}+(10\sqrt{3})^{2}}\\=\sqrt{316}

Consider the right angled triangle DCA.

The angle DAC measure 75°.

Using the trigonometric identities compute the value of Perpendicular DC as follows:

tan\ 75^{o}=\frac{DC}{\sqrt{316}}\\\\DC=3.732\times\sqrt{316}\\\\DC=66.34

Thus, the value of DC is 66.34.

15/4 in to equal mixed number
Temka [501]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

  \dfrac{15}{4}=\dfrac{12+3}{4}=\dfrac{12}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=3+\dfrac{3}{4}=\boxed{3\dfrac{3}{4}}

__

The integer part of the mixed number is the quotient when the numerator is divided by the denominator. The remainder from that division is the numerator of the fraction.

  15/4 = 15 ÷ 4 = 3 r 3 = 3 3/4

What is the are in square feet of the trapezoid
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

A = 94.6ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be able to find the area of a trapezoid or any quadrilateral shape we need to use the equation:

A= a+b/2h

As we know we have the number base 7.7ft, base 14.3ft, and height of 8.6ft so then we take these numbers :

7.7 + 14.3/2 x 8.6 = 94.6
