It means per CENT, per every cent that makes up to 100, or you could say per hundred, which is why everything is based off from 0 - 100 perCENT.

The table of values represents an exponential function f(x).

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

-3.98 (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of function f(x) over the interval a ≤ x ≤ b is given by:

$\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Given interval: -2 ≤ x ≤ 2

$\implies a = -2$

$\implies b = 2$

$\implies f(a) = f(-2)=16$

$\implies f(b) =f(2)= \dfrac{1}{16}$

Substituting the values into the equation:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \textsf{rate of change} & =\dfrac{\frac{1}{16}-16}{2-(-2)}\\\\ & = \dfrac{-\frac{255}{16}}{4}\\\\ & = -\dfrac{255}{64}\\\\ & = -3.98\: \sf (nearest\:hundredth)\end{aligned}$

Given the system of equations, what is the value of the system determinant? x + y = 8 x - y = 10 0 -1 -2

kkurt [141]

Each X and Y in the equations don't have a number in front of them so they are all considered 1.

D = 1*(-1) - 1*(-1) = -1 -1 = -2

The answer is -2

the first box measures 18 inches by 8 inches by 15 inches. the second box is 10 inches tall and the area of the base measures 19

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Box 1 has the greater volume, by 200 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest of two volumes can be found by computing each volume and comparing the results.

The volume is computed from dimensions by ...

V = LWH

V = (18 in)(8 in)(15 in) = 2160 in³

The volume is computed from area and height by ...

V = Bh . . . . . where B is the base area, and h is the height

V = (196 in²)(10 in) = 1960 in³

<h3>Comparison</h3>

The units of the two volumes are the same, so we can decide which is larger by comparing the numbers. Box 1 has a volume that is more than 2000 in³, and Box 2 has a volume that is less than 2000 in³.

Box 1 has a greater volume

The amount by which the volume is greater can be found by subtracting the smaller volume from the larger:

2160 in³ -1960 in³ = 200 in³

Box 1 is larger by 200 in³

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The percentage by which Box 1 is larger than Box 2 can be found by multiplying 100% by the ratio of the difference to the Box 1 volume:

200/1960 × 100% ≈ 10.2%

Box 1 is about 10% larger than Box 2.

Please find the measure of the exterior angle

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

exterior angles:

144°and 36°

126° and 54°

90° and 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that each angle in a triangle adds up to 180°.

so,

2x+3x+5x=180

10x=180

x=180/10

x=18

the interior angles are:

2x=36°

3x=54°

5x=90°

and explanation is provided to find the exterior angles above.(sorry for the bad handwriting)

The cost of a stove to a store owner was $500, and she sold the stove for $1080. What was her percent of profit based on cost?

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

116%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price (C. P.) = $500

Selling Price (S. P.) = $1080

Profit = SP - CP = $1080 - $500 = $580

Profit percent

$= \frac{Profit}{CP} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{580}{500} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{580}{5} \\ \\ = 116 \%$
