A 100% increase followed by a 50% decrease

Answer:

We end up with our original number

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be our number

We increase by 100

increase = old number * 100%

increase = x*1

increase = x

New number = old number + increase

                       = x+x

                         =2x

Now we decrease by 50%

decrease = number *50%

                = 2x*.5

                =x

Final number = new number - decrease

                       = 2x-x

                         =x

What is the measure of angle b°?​
Tasya [4]

Answer:

b = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a trapezoid is 360°

Summing the angles we get:

65°+55°+130°=250°

Then subtracting this value from 360° we get:

360°-250°=110°

Final answer of 110°

The function. In the graph is f(x) =
Tanya [424]

Answer:

x^3-2x^2-5x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph of the function f(x).

Now we need to use that graph to find the equation of the graph and match with the correct choice from the give choices:

x^4-2x^2+5x+6

x^3-2x^2-5x+6

x^3-2x^2+5x+6

-x^4-2x^2+5x+6

We see that graph has end points in opposite direction then the degree of polynomial must be ODD.

Available degrees are 3 and 4. Degree 3 is odd so it is choice B or C.

Only x^3-2x^2-5x+6 satisfies the given points from graph.

Hence correct choice is x^3-2x^2-5x+6.
