Answer:

163

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of visitors on Friday = 3,260

Number increased by 15% on Saturday

Projected percentage increase on Saturday = 20%

Actual percentage increase in number of visitors = 15%

Number of visitors on Saturday :

(100 + 15)% × 3260

115% * 3260

(115/100) * 3260

= 3749 visitors

Projected percentage increase = 20%

Projected number:

((100 + 20)% * 3260

120% * 3260

(120/100) * 3260

= 3912

Difference : (3912 - 3749) = 163

Lilian says that 25% of a number will always be less than 75% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Lillian's
rjkz [21]
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

Find the equation of the line given the slope and the y-intercept
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2}x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear graph is usually written in the following format...

y = mx + b

Where m would be the slope, usually referring to rise over run and b would be the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). From the graph, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at point 3 so b would be 3. The graph also shows us that for every 1 value that the line rises it moves to the right 2 values. Therefore, the slope would be 1/2. Using these values we can create the following equation...

y = \frac{1}{2}x + 3
