Answer:
Last year there were 550 bison in the heard and this year it is 10% larger.
10% is also 10/100 or 0.10
To find 10% of the heard last year
550 x.0.10 = 55. To find the number in the heard this year add 550 (last year) + 55 (10% growth) = 605 or,
to find how many there are now last years heard size was 100% of the heard or 1.00. To find any percent more add it to 1.00 and multiply by the starting amount.
550 x 1.10 = 605
For the second example.
If there are 550 bison in the heard this year, and this year was a decrease of 10% from last year we can express last year's number like this.
550 = (x - (x * 0.10)) simplify;
550 = 1x - 0.10x
550 = 0.90x
Divide both sides by 0.90
x = 611.11 but it's hard to have 0.11 of a bison so realistically 611 bison last year. Subtract 10% or 61 and you indeed have 550 this year.
Answer:
3 or 6/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4--2 (you add there is a subtraction of a negative) over or divided by 3-1
That is a 45 45 90 triangle.
The legs of such a triangle equal the hypotenuse divided by the sq root of 2
So each leg equals 125.5 cm divided by

M = (1,4)
N = (5,2)
For M, you simply move to 1 on the x axis abs for 4 you move on the y axis. Same does for N, for 5 you move on the x axis and for 2 you move on the y axis.
17,500 / 700 = 25 15 year old trees you will need
