Answer: 
b) 5314
c) ln 2.7
d) 4.6 hrs
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
Answer: i think the answer is 320
Step-by-step explanation:
i say 320 because a square has 4 sides and there is 80 yards so all i did is multiply 80 x 4 = 320
Answer:
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b where m = slope and b=y-intercept
slope: 0, y-intercept: 3
y=(0)x + 3
y=3
square root of (9-6)^2 +(5-1)^2 = 5
the distance is 5 units
