Answer:

$218.70

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to first convert the percentage to the decimal.

20% = 0.2

Now, you need to find 20% of each bill by multiplying each bill by 0.2.

0.2(185.45) + 0.2(205.20) + 0.2(195.05) + 0.2(245.80) + 0.2(262.00)

Because of the distributive property, you can add up the bills and multiply the sum by 0.2.

0.2(185.45 + 205.20 + 195.05 + 245.80 + 262.00)

0.2(1093.50)

218.7

17. x^2 + 2x + 1
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

E. This polynomial could be factored by using grouping or the perfect squares methods.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 2x + 1

There is no greatest common factor

This is a perfect square

a^2 + 2ab+ b^2 = ( x+1)^2

We can factor this  by grouping

x^2 + 2x + 1

(x^2 +x) + (x+1)

x( x+1)  + x+1

Factor out x+1

( x+1)  ( x+1)

This is not the difference of squares since there is no subtraction

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line.<br> (1,3) <br> (0,1)<br> m=4
Anna [14]

Given coordinates (1,3) and (0,1).

In order to find the equation of line, we need to find the slope between given coordinates.

We know slope formula,

m= \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

We have (x1,y1) = (1,3) and (x2,y2) = (0,1).

Plugging values of x1,y1,x2 and y2 in slope formula, we get

m=\frac{1-3}{0-1}

Simplifying top and bottom of the fraction we got for slope

m=\frac{-2}{-1}=2

We got slope m=2.

We are given second point (0,1), where x-coordinate is 0 and y-coordinate is 1.

y-intercept is a point on y-axis, where x=0.

Therefore, y-intercept = 1.

Now, applying slope-intercept form of the linear equation

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.

m=2 and b=1.

Plugging values of m and b in slope-intercept form, we get

y=2x+1.

Therefore, point-slope form for the line is y=2x+1.

By what percent will the fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and denominator is decreased by 20% ?
seropon [69]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x.

x = x/1

Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.

Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.

The new fraction is

1.6x/0.8

Do the division.

1.6x/0.8 = 2x

The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.

The increase is 100%.
