Answer: %512 increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Soooo if you had $1 and the prize was $512, then youd be making $512 (because you lost/invested the $1), It would be a 512% increase. Now, if it was $51,200 youd win, then yes it would be a 51,200%, but its only $512.

Serial numbers for a product are to be made using 3 letters followed by 3 digits. The letters are to be taken from the first 5 l
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

43,200 serial numbers can be generated

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordering for the letters and the digits are important. For example, 012 constitutes a different serial number than 210. So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

How many serial numbers can be generated

3 letters, from the first five of the alphabet

3 digits, from a set of 10

So

T = P_{5,3}*P_{10,3} = \frac{5!}{(5-3)!}*\frac{10!}{(10-3)!} = 43200

43,200 serial numbers can be generated

Linear equations... HELP!
fgiga [73]
The answer is m = 250 - 25w.
This is because this answer is in y=mx+b format (slope-intercept form) and has the correct values.
In slope-intercept form, m is the slope and b is y-intercept.
In m = 250 - 25w, the y-intercept is 250 and the slope is -25.
This matches the graph.
Y-intercept is where a line crosses the y-axis, which is 250 in this case.
The slope is negative since the values are decreasing over time (as x-values increase, y-values decrease).

I NEEEED HELP PLEASE COMMENT IF U WILL HELP ME. ITS AN ALGEBRA QUESTION Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to
Musya8 [376]

f(x)= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4

g(x)= 5x^3 -7x+ 4

f(x) - g(x)

= (9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4) - (5x^3 -7x+ 4)

= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4 -5x^3+ 7x -4

= (9x^3 -5x^3)+ 2x^2+ (7x -5x)+ (4-4) (combine like terms)

= 4x^3+ 2x^2+ 2x

= 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1)

The final answer is 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1).
