Answer:

<h2>Between 2009 and 2010 hurricanes increased a 428%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest percentage change refers to which two years presents the biggest difference.

So, to answer the question of the problem, we observe that 2009 is the least year and 2010 (the consecutive year) is the greatest year, this means that they proportion has the biggest difference.

Now, we have to find the percentage for each year, which is calculated dividing the number of hurricanes of the year by the total number of hurricanes of all years together.

From the graph, we observe that the total hurricanes from 2006 to 2011 is

5+6+8+3+12+7=41

Now, the percentage of the year 2009 is

\frac{3}{41}=0.07 (or \ 7\%)

The percentage of the year 2010 is

\frac{12}{41}=0.30 (or \ 30\%)

So, from 2009 to 2010, the percentage of hurricanes increased

\frac{30}{7}=4.28 (or \ 428\%)

This means that between 2009 and 2010 hurricanes increased a 428%, which is nuts.

Firstly, we will find smallest value and largest value

smallest value is in 2009

and smallest value is 3

largest value is in 2010

and largest value is 12

So, percentage change will be greatest between 2009 to 2010

now, we can find percentage change

=\frac{12-3}{3}\times 100

=\frac{9}{3}\times 100

=300 %..............Answer

25 lbs would be greater than 384 oz because 384 divided by 16 (because 16 oz per lb) =24lbs
so 25lbs > 384 oz

Is this image complementary supplementary or neither due today
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Complementary, X = 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary = 90 degree angle

Supplementary = 180 degree angle

(x - 30) + x = 90

(60 - 30) + 60 = 90

30 + 60 = 90

9-8x² The degree of the polynomial is​
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. For polynomial 2x2 - 3x5 + 5x6.

We observe that the above polynomial has three terms. Here the first term is 2x2, the second term is -3x5 and the third term is 5x6.

Now we will determine the exponent of each term.

(i) the exponent of the first term 2x2 = 2

(ii) the exponent of the second term 3x5 = 5

(iii) the exponent of the third term 5x6 = 6

Since, the greatest exponent is 6, the degree of 2x2 - 3x5 + 5x6 is also 6.

Therefore, the degree of the polynomial 2x2 - 3x5 + 5x6 = 6.

2. Find the degree of the polynomial 16 + 8x – 12x2 + 15x3 - x4.

We observe that the above polynomial has five terms. Here the first term is 16, the second term is 8x, the third term is – 12x2, the fourth term is 15x3 and the fifth term is - x4.

Now we will determine the exponent of each term.

(i) the exponent of the first term 16 = 0

(ii) the exponent of the second term 8x = 1

(iii) the exponent of the third term – 12x2 = 2

(iv) the exponent of the fourth term 15x3 = 3

(v) the exponent of the fifth term - x4 = 4

Since, the greatest exponent is 4, the degree of 16 + 8x – 12x2 + 15x3 - x4 is also 4.

Therefore, the degree of the polynomial 16 + 8x – 12x2 + 15x3 - x4 = 4.

A school drama department sells 40 more student tickets than adult tickets. Charging $8 for adult tickets and $6 for student tic
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Adults = x

Students = y = x + 40. 40 more student than adult

Adult = $8, Student = $6

Total for Adults = 8*x = 8x

Total for students = 6*y = 6y

Total = $1920

8x + 6y = 1920

Hence system of equations are:

y = x + 40

8x + 6y = 1920
