Answer:

= 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Length and breadth is in the ratio 2:3

Then, let length = 2x and breadth = 3x

Area of rectangle = l×b = 2x×3x = 6

Now if breadth is increased by 50% ,

our new breadth will be = 3x + 50%(3x)

                                       = 4.5x

And length is increased by same number of units, length = 2x+ 2x = 4x

New area = l×b = 4.5x × 4x

                        = 18

Percentage change in area = ×1000

                                           = ×100

                                           = 200%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L & B be the original length & width of the rectangle then its area is

A0=LB

Now, the length & width both are increased by 50 % then new length & width become 1.5L & 1.5B then new area of rectangle

A1=1.5L×1.5B=2.25LB

Now, the percentage increase in the area of rectangle

=A1−A0A0×100 %

=2.25LB−LBLB×100 %

=125 %

Mike installed the window shown. How many square feet is the window? Use 3.14 for pi. Round to the nearest tenth.
Natali [406]

Answer: 3.9ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the rectangle first:

= Length * Width

= 2 * 1.5

= 3 ft²

Find the area of the semi-circle by finding the area of a circle and dividing it by 2:

= πr²

= 3.14 * 1.5/2 * 1.5/2

= 1.76625‬ft²

Divide by 2:

= 1.76625‬/ 2

= 0.88 ft²

Add the area of the rectangle to the semi-circle:

= 3 + 0.88

= 3.9ft²

1. Which of the following is not a linear equation in one variable?
Lorico [155]

\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

Which of the following is not a linear equation in one variable?

a) 33

b) 33(x+y)

c) 33x

d) 33y

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

  • Option <em><u>b) 33 (x + y)</u></em> is not a linear equation in 1 variable.
  • Here, we can see that there are 2 variables used ⇨ x & y. Hence, even though it's a linear equation, it's not in 1 variable.
  • All the other options are in 1 variable or don't have a variable at all.

A 78 gram sample of Uranium loses half of its mass each year. What is the exponential equation? Please explain why A is the corr
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The first answer is correct because we have a decay factor.

The sample is losing mass, so the number that is being multiplied by a power of x must be less than 1.

If the second answer were used, then the sample would be gaining mass.
