Answer:

An increase of 43.3% per year

Step-by-step explanation:

using the equation, plug in the respective variables. 650 =500R3, 3 times 500 is 1500. 650=1,500R. divide both sides by 1500 to get .4333, 3 repeating. .433 in percent form is 43.3%. (I just use 650 out of 500 or 650/500 which is 1.3 divided by 3 because 3 years to get the same amount)

An 8-pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60. At the same rate, what would be the cost of 11 pounds of tomatoes?
Evgesh-ka [11]
Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given that for an 8 pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60, we would want to know how much will it be for 11 pounds. First, we should know how much does it cost per pound. So 5.60 divided by 8 is 0.7. So per pound of tomatoes costs $0.7. Now to know how much for 11 pounds, we multiply 0.7 by 11 and we get $7.70. The correct answer therefore would be option C. $7.70. Hope this answer helps.

Kendra earns $70 per week mowing lawns. She saves 60% of the money she earns each week. How many weeks will it take Kendra to sa
katrin [286]

Answer:

5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find how much money she saves a week by multiplying the decimal form of 60% and $70.

To get the decimal form of a percent you have to move the decimal to the left twice, like this: 60 ---> .60

Now that we have the decimal form of the percent we can multiply it by the 70 to find how much she saves a week:

(70)(.6) = 42

Therefore, Kendra saves $42 each week.

To find how many weeks it will take Kendra to buy the game system you divide $210 by the $42. Like this:

(210)/(42) = 5

All in all, it will take Kendra 5 weeks to save enough money to buy a game system that costs $210.

natulia [17]

Answer:

C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

in equations y=4x+9 and y=4x-9 you have the same slope (4) so paralleling is guaranteed.

y=9 and y=18 you can understand as y=0x+9 and y=0x+18, so in this situation you have the same slope (0), so lines y=9 and y=18 are parallel too.

Help me.A towns population went from 25,800 people to 48,200 people in ten years. What is the percent
solong [7]

The percent increase in population is: 87%

Further explanation:

The percent change is given by:

Percent\ increase=\frac{Increase}{Original\ number}*100

Given

Population before 10 years = 25800 people

Population after 10 years= 48200 people

Increase=48200-25800=22400\ people

Putting the values in the formula:

Percent\ Increase=\frac{22400}{25800}*100\\=0.8682*100\\=86.82\%\\Rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ percent\\87\%

The percent increase in population is: 87%
