NEED HELP FAST!!! Find the percent of increase from 260 to 430. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

a_sh-v [17]

You started out with 260, and increased to 430.
The amount you increased was (430 - 260) = 170

170 is (170/260) = <em>65.4%</em> of what you started with.

============================

Another way:

The new amount is (430/260) of the old amount.

430 / 260 = 1.654 = 165.4%

The original amount was 260.
You started with 100% of it.
You ended up with 165.4% of it.
That's an increase of 65.4% .

In a certain year, brand A of heart-rate watch cost $39.99 and brand B cost $59.99. A nonprofit community health organizatio

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Brand A = 21 heart-rate watches.

Brand B = 13 heart-rate watches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of Brand A heart watches and B be the number of Brand B heart watches.

We have been given that a nonprofit community health organization purchased 34 heart-rate watches for use at a wellness center.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$A+B=34...(1)$

We have been given that in a certain year, brand A of heart-rate watch cost $39.99 and brand B cost $59.99 and the organization spent $1619.66 for the watches.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$39.99*A+59.99*B=1619.66...(2)$

We will use substitution method to solve our system of equations.

From equation (1) we will get,

$A=34-B$

Substituting $A=34-B$ in equation(2) we will get,

$39.99*(34-B)+59.99*B=1619.66$

$1359.66-39.99*B+59.99*B=1619.66$

$-39.99*B+59.99*B=1619.66-1359.66$

$20*B=260$

$B=\frac{260}{20}$

$B=13$

Therefore, the organisation purchased 13 heart-rate watches of brand B.

Now let us substitute B=13 in equation (1).

$A+13=34$

$A+13-13=34-13$

$A=21$

Therefore, the organisation purchased 21 heart-rate watches of brand A.

The table shows the numbers y of students absent from school x days after a flu outbreak.

allsm [11]

A function that models the data is given by this quadratic equation, y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572.
The number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak is equal to 11 students.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two (2) variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

By critically observing the graph (see attachment) which models the data in the given table, we can infer and logically deduce that the quadratic function is given by:

y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572

For the number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak, we have:

y = -0.4908(10)² + 5.8845(10) + 1.3572

y = -0.4908(100) + 58.845 + 1.3572

y = -49.08 + 58.845 + 1.3572

Number of students, y = 11.12 ≈ 11 students.
