Let's make an equation.

19,000x=24,320

This equation shows the percentage increase, which is x. Once we have x, we need to subtract 1 from it since in the equation the 1 shows that it's increeasing. All we need to do is divide both sides by 19,000.

24,320÷19,000

1,28-1=0.28; we need to multiply by 100 to find the increase.

0.28×100=28

So, the percentage increase is 28%.

Ninety tickets were sold by our school for the band fest. a tickets were sold for $3.00 each and b tickets were sold for $4.00 e
Lesechka [4]

Answer: 60= $3.00 and 30= $4.00

x=# of $3 tickets

90-x=# of $4 tickets

$3x+$4(90-x)=$300

3x+360-4x=300

-x+360=300

-x=-360+300

-x=-60

x=60 $3 tickets

90-60=30 $4 tickets

Identify the percent of change as an increase or a decrease. 50 pounds to 35 pounds. Find the percent of change.
Solnce55 [7]
Since it starts at 50 and goes to 35....it is a decrease since the amount is going down, or getting smaller.  To find the percent, first find the difference 50-35 = 15; then divide by the initial amount of 50.  So, 15/50 = 0.3, and then convert that to a percent by multiplying by 100.  Therefore the percent decrease is 30%

PLEASE HELP For the expression below, write two other equivalent expressions using different terms. Make sure one is fully simpl
Julli [10]

Given:

The given expression is

-4(x+2)-2x+4

To find:

The two other equivalent expressions.

Solution:

We have,

-4(x+2)-2x+4

Using distributive property, we get

=-4(x)-4(2)-2x+4

=-4x-8-2x+4

So, one equivalent expression is -4x-8-2x+4.

On further simplification, we get

=(-4x-2x)+(-8+4)

=6x-4

Therefore, the second and fully simplified equivalent expression is 6x-4.

What is the approximate distance between the points (-2, 3, -5) and (2, -7, 4)?
tatiyna
To approximate the distance of points with three dimension, make use of the equation,

                           d = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 +(z2 - z1)^2)

Substituting all the data from the points given, 
                       
                    <span>d = sqrt ((2 - -2)^2 + (-7 - 3)^2 +(4 - -5)^2) = sqrt 197
</span>
Thus, the distance from the points is approximately 14.04 and that is letter D.
