Answer: The percentage changes is -11\frac{13}{17} \%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the initial weight of the dog = 17 pounds,

After 3 months, the weight of the dog = 15 pounds,

⇒ \text{ The percentage in the weight of the dog} = \frac{\text{ Initial weight-final weight}}{\text{ initial weight}}\times 100

⇒ \text{ The percentage in the weight of the dog} = \frac{15-17}{17}\times 100

= -\frac{2}{17}\times 100

= -\frac{200}{17}

= -11\frac{13}{17}\%

Find the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2)
Arisa [49]

Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

(Look at the image I attached)

Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.

(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify

4 + 36 = c^2

40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.

c = sqrt(40)

So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.

Help me out please T-T​
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The simplyfied version would be 19/4

Show of work:

(1/4)^-2 = 4^2

3 × 8^2/3 × 1 = 12

(9/16)^1/2 = 3/4

4^2 - 12 + 3/4

Convert elements to fractions:

-12 × 4 + 3

---------- ----

4 4

Since the denominators are equal combine the fractions:

-12 × 4 + 3

---------------

4

-12 × 4 + 3 = -45

= -45/4

=4^2 - 45/4

4^2 = 16

16 - 45/4

16 × 4 - 45. 16 × 4 - 45

--------- ----- ----------------

4 4. 4

-> 16 × 4 - 45 = 19

= 19/4

The probability that the parking lot of a mall is full on a holiday is 0.19. The probability that it is a holiday is 0.29. What
dybincka [34]

Answer:

66%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use conditional probability.

P(full | holiday) = P(full AND holiday) / P(holiday)

P(full | holiday) = 0.19 / 0.29

P(full | holiday) ≈ 0.66

The school that Trevon goes to selling tickets to the annual dance competition. On the first day of tickets sales the school sol
KiRa [710]

Answer:

  both kinds of tickets are $5 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s and c represent the dollar costs of a senior ticket and child ticket, respectively. The problem statement describes two relationships:

  12s + 5c = 85 . . . . . revenue from the first day of sales

  6s + 9c = 75 . . . . . . revenue from the second day of sales

Double the second equation and subtract the first to eliminate the s variable.

  2(6s +9c) -(12s +5c) = 2(75) -(85)

  13c = 65 . . . . . simplify

  65/13 = c = 5 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of c

Substitute this value into either equation. Let's use the second one.

  6s + 9·5 = 75

  6s = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 45

  30/6 = s = 5 . . . divide by the coefficient of s

The price of a senior ticket is $5; the price of a child ticket is $5.
