Explain why a change from 20 to 40 is a 100% increase, but a change from 40 to 20 is a 50% decrease

1 answer:

4 0

Hi there! :D

A change from 20 to 40 is 100% increase because:

If 20 is the number starting up and is the original number, then 20 would equal 100%

40-20=20 An extra 20 is equal to 100%. 20=100%, so it's own number added to itself would make it an increase.

A change from 40 to 20 is a 50% decrease because:

40/2= 20

Half of 40 is 20. Half of a number is equal to 50%.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

10.

m < N = 180 - 53 - 44

= 83 degrees.

Using the Law of Sines:

LM / sin 83 = 14 / sin 44

LM = 14 sin 83 / sin 44

LM = 20.

11.

m < ABC = 1/2 * 192 = 96 degrees.

In a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 376 green peas and 117 yellow peas. Based on those results

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 376 green peas and 117 yellow peas.

Total no of peas = 376+117=493

No of green peas = 376

Probability of selecting a green pea = $\frac{376}{493} =0.7627$

Yes it is reasonably close to 3/4 = 0.75 since difference is only 0.0127 negligible.

7 Max is thinking of a number. His number: is a 6-digit, odd number • has the same number of 1,000s as Is • is greater than half

wel

The two numbers that can possibly be Max's number are 617237 and 627137.

We are provided with several characteristics of the numbers about which Max is thinking.
The number is a 6-digit number.
The number is odd.
The numbers have the same digits at 1000 s and 1 s place value.
The number is greater than 500,000.
The sum of all the digits of the number equals 26.
According to the rules, the digits at 1000s and 1s places should be the same as well as odd. They can be 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.
The leftmost digit should be more than 5, so it can be 6, 7, 8, or 9.
The remaining digits can be filled in such a way that the total sum is 26.
There are a number of possible answers.
So, we will take any two such numbers that follow all the rules.
