Answer:
Let's assume the number be 100.
According to the problem , 100 is increased by 100%.
So, new number will be 100+100=200
Now 200 will decreased by 20%.
So, 20% of 200= 0.20*200= 40.
So, again the number has been changed into 200+40=240.
So, x=240

Answer: 122.5
======================================================
Explanation:
First thing to do is to find the perimeter of figure B. Add up all the sides and we get: 5+9+9+12 = 14+21 = 35.
The scale factor 7:2 means that if the perimeter of figure A was 7, then the perimeter of figure B would be 2. Or it could be 14 for A and 4 for B. And so on. The idea is that the two perimeters scale up or down together. This allows us to set up the proportion below in which we can solve for x
(perimeter of A)/(perimeter of B) = 7/2
x/35 = 7/2
x*2 = 35*7 .... cross multiply
2x = 245
2x/2 = 245/2 .... divide both sides by 2
x = 122.5
The perimeter of figure A is 122.5
I think the easiest way to answer all of these is to just go ahead and find the equation of the line first.
I'm pretty sure that by the time you reach this problem, you've learned to find
the equation of a line that passes through two given points. You have two points: (2, 100) and (5, 205). The equation of the line through them is [ y = 35x + 30 ].
6). The initial membership fee ... the cost for walking in the door and signing up,
before any months, is $30. (Also the y-intercept.)
7). The cost per month is $35. (The slope of the line.)
8). We already did that, up above. [ y = 35x + 30 ].
9). 'x' in the equation is the number of months.
There are 12 months in one year.
y = 35(12) + 30 = $450
Answer:
If y = x then when x = -1 then y = -1
