An increase is adding, not multiplying. they meant that 5 times a number is 500% of something. it would be a 400% increase as one plus four is five.

If LM=41-2x and NP=7x+5, find LM
Tatiana [17]
Answer:
LM = 33 units

Explanation:
From the drawing:
LM = NP
41 - 2x = 7x + 5
41 - 5 = 7x + 2x
36 = 9x
x = 9

This means that:
LM = 41 - 2x 
LM = 41 - 2(4) 
LM = 33 units

Hope this helps :)

√(2x+1)<br> Evaluate the integral<br> 2<br> (2x + 1) In (2x + 1)<br> dx.
Crank

Substitute y=\ln(2x+1) and dy=\frac2{2x+1}\,dx, so that

\displaystyle \int \frac2{(2x+1) \ln(2x+1)} \, dx = \int \frac{dy}y = \ln|y| + C = \boxed{\ln|\ln(2x+1)| + C}

Suatu jenis roti memerlukan 150 gram tepung dan 50 gram mentega. Roti jenis lain memerlukan 75 gram tepung dan 75 gram mentega,
Katena32 [7]
Let the one type of the bread be bread A
The second type of the bread be bread B

Let the flour be 'f' and the butter be 'b'

We need 150f + 50b for bread A and 75f + 75b for bread B

We can compare the amount of flour and bread needed for each bread and write them as ratio

FLOUR

Bread A : Bread B
150 : 75
2 : 1

We have a total of 2250gr of flour, and this amount is to be divided into the ratio of 2 parts : 1 part. There is a total of 3 parts. 

2250 ÷ 3 = 750 gr for one part then multiply back into the ratio to get

Bread A : Bread B = (2×750) : (1×750) = 1500 : 750


BUTTER

Bread A : Bread B = 50 : 75 = 2 : 3

The amount of butter available, 1250 gr is to be divided into 2 parts : 3 parts.
There are 5 parts in total

1250 ÷ 5 = 250 gr for one part, then multiply this back into the ratio 

Bread A: Bread B = (2×250) : (3×250) = 500 : 750

Hence, for bread A we need 1500 gr of flour and 500 gr of butter, and for bread B, we need 750 gr of flour and 750 gr of butter.
