Well, 91-70=21. We now know that he score 21 percent better than last test. Then we can make a proportion to find increase as it corresponds to the score on his first math test.

21/70=0.3 or 30%

answer: 30% increase

If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is 1.74 m/s2 and subway stations are located 930
Free_Kalibri [48]
Given that the subway stations are 930 m apart, the train have to be accerelated for half the distance and then decerelated for the rest of the distance.

Recall that the distance travelled by an object with an initial velocity, u, for a period of time, t, at an accereration, a, is given by
s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2

But, we assume that the train accelerates from rest, thus
s=\frac{1}{2} at^2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow465=\frac{1}{2}(1.74)t^2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow t^2=534.48 \\  \\  \Rightarrow t=\sqrt{534.48}=23.12

The maximum speed is attained at half the center of the distance between subway stations (i.e. at distance = 465 m).

Thus, maximum speed = distance / time = 465 / 23.12 = 20.11 m/s.

Claire bought a pair of jeans that regularly cost $50 on sale for $40. What was the percent decrease in price?
Len [333]

The answer is 20%

If 50 is your 100%, take 100 and 90 for example it would be obvious that is it 10% off, so with 50 since it is half of 100 you double the 10% which will be 20%. :)

Which ordered pair is the y intercept of y=2x^2+3x-3?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

I think it's A - (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

 x,y

(0,-3)

y-intercept equation for this problem:

y=2x^{2}+3x-3

Break it down to smaller parts:

2(0)^{2} +3(0) = 0

0 - 3 = -3

Rewriting it in a neater way:

=> y = 2(0)^{2} +3(0) -3\\y=-3

Therefore, answer A / the first choice is correct

- have a great day, be safe & healthy -
