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 = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 3 by (6x - 4x) = 18x - 12x
18x - 12x = -30
6x = -30
x = -30 /6
x = -5
Answer:
-x^5 - 7x^4 + x^2 + (1/8)x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the given -9+1/8x-7x^4+x^2-x^5 in descending order of the variable x:
-9+1/8x
-x^5 - 7x^4 + x^2 + (1/8)x - 9
1. When there are two events that need to happen, we must multiply the probability of each event happening.
Shawn losing to Mike: 5/8 chance
Shawn losing to Tim: 2/7 chance
5/8 × 2/7 = 10/56 = 5/28
There's a 5/28 chance of Shawn losing to Mike and Tim.
I don't know #2, sorry :/
Hope this helps!
When Serena is 10, her mom is 3*10=30. Her mom is 20 years older than Serena.
If her mom's age divided by half is equal to Serena's, then she will be twice as old as Serena.
20 + 20 = 40
20 * 2 = 40
Serena will be 20, her mom will be 40.
