The value of the CPI (Consumer Price Index) is calculated by dividing first the current period price by the base period price and multiply the quotient by 100. Using the first set of values, we get base period price. 
                                CPI = (current period price / base period price) x 100
                                 191 = (93.11 / base period price) x 100
                                          base period price = 48.75

Then, using this base period price and the second current period price, we solve for the second CPI
                                CPI = (76.05 / 48.75) x 100
                                  <em>CPI = 156
</em>Therefore, the answer to this item is letter C. <em>

Can u please help me with this math assignment
Troyanec [42]
Hard to read sideways but what I got from that is that you have a right triangle and you are trying to explain the other angles? 
Both of the other two angles would be 45 because an angle is 180 total. If it is a right angle, that means that there is a 90 degree angle. 180-90=90. In a right angle, the other two angles are the same in degree. Therefor 90/2 is 45. 45 applies to both of the acute angles. I hope this helps! Good luck :)

Use completing the square to solve for x in the equation (x minus 12) (x + 4) = 9. x = –1 or 15 x = 1 or 7 x = 4 plus-or-minus S
Scrat [10]

Answer:

x = 4 ± \sqrt{73}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 12)(x + 4) = 9 ← expand the left side using FOIL

x² - 8x - 48 = 9 ( ad 48 to both sides )

x² - 8x = 57

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 = 57 + 16

(x - 4)² = 73 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 4 = ± \sqrt{73} ( add 4 to both sides )

x = 4 ± \sqrt{73}

he temperature at noon on a winter day was 2 °F. By 6 p.m., the temperature had dropped to −9 °F. Write a subtraction expression
nydimaria [60]

Based on the starting temperature and the new temperature, the relevant expression would be<u> 2 - (-9) </u>

To find the number of degrees the temperature has changed by, use the following equation:

<em>= Starting temperature - Current temperature </em>

Starting temperature = 2°F

Current temperature = -9°F

The equation becomes:

<em>= 2 - (-9)</em>

In conclusion, the expression would be 2 - (-9)

Since f(x) is up and down, simply decrease the overall equation by 2 to get 2sqrt(x+3)+3 instead of +5. To move it 5 to the right, we have to do something kind of weird, which is subtract 5 from (x+3) instead of add 5 to get
 2sqrt(x-2)+3.
