The sales was increased by 44.4%.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Lets do this cumulative
- 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 99
- 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 108
- 90 of 10% = 9 which is 117
- 90 of 10% = 9 which is 126
- 90 of 4 % = 3.6 which is 129.6
- 90 of 0.044% = 0.0396 which is 129.99
- This comes to nearly 44.44 to be closer there was an increase.
- Always rule 1 approximation use 50% of 90 if it is above 130.
- Down it to 40% of 90 see if the sales is lower than 130.
- It should always start with 50,40,30....10 percents.
- Alternative should be 10,1 or decimals.
- Approximation using decimals rounding up becomes simple.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
When a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle.
Then the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant and the square of the measure of the tangent are equal, hence
x(x + 5) = 6²
x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 4
Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.
the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.
the full size tree grew by 18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.
Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2
A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x
Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that
x/2 + x + 3x = 27
Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes
x + 2x + 6x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6 inches
The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.
The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches
