Hello there!
1. Okay. So 70% is positive, so it is a corresponding growth. 70% is 0.7 in decimal form. C and D are both eliminated, because that's too large. When something grows by 70%, that is less than double. 0.7 is not right either, because that's more of a decay than a growth. The only answer that makes sense id 1.70, because you are going up, and adding 1 to decimal form brings you to the decimal that when multiplied will bring you to the total. The answer is B: 1.70.
2. So, -75% is negative, so it is a decay factor. A is eliminated, because it makes no sense and B is out, because that represents growth, not decay. You lose 75% of the amount overtime compounded, but you still have 25% that remains. To find that amount, you would subtract that amount from 1 to get the decay. 1 - 0.75 is 0.25. The decay factor is 0.25. The answer is D: 0.25.
Answer:
x = the wight of the large box
y = the weight of the small box
A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms.
3x + 2y = 73
A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms.
8x + 4y = 177
by solving the system of equations
3x + 2y = 73
8x + 4y = 177
we find
x = 15.5 kg
y = 13.25 kg
the large box weights 15.5 kg.
the small box weights 13.25 kg.
Answer:
slope=2
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = y/x
hope this helps
Volume = pi*r^2
so 58^2*pi= 3364pi = approx 10,562.96 in^2
Answer:
$1.95
Step-by-step explanation:
notebook = n
pencil = p
3n + 2p = 5.10
2n + 3p = 4.65
multiply top equation by 2 and bottom by 3
6n + 4p = 10.20
6n +9p = 13.95
subtract bottom equation from the top equation
-5p = -3.75
divide by 5, negatives cancel out
p = 0.75
sub p into either equation, I chose the original top equation
3n + 2(0.75) = 5.10
3n + 1.50 = 5.10
subtract 1.50 from both sides
3n = 3.60
divide both sides by 3
n = 1.20
p = 0.75
n + p = 1.95 (the fourth option)
