By what percent will the product of two numbers increase if one of them is increased by 15% and the other is increased by 40%?

Mathematics

Marysya12 [62]4 years ago

Answer:

61% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of two numbers = x * y = xy

(x + 15%) * (y + 40%)

Due to the fact that x and y are variables, we can add the percents to them

1.15x * 1.4y

Multiply

1.61xy

Calculate percent increase

1.61xy (new amount) - xy (original amount)

------------------------------------------------------------      * 100

                   xy (original amount)

Simplify

.61xy

---------  * 100      =     61%

  xy

61% increase

Hope this helps :) Let me know if you have any questions about my answer.

GCF of 9ab^2 and 6bc^2
garik1379 [7]

The GCF is 3*b = 3b

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF is the Greatest Common Factor which will divide all the numbers whose GCF it is.

To find the GCF, we factorize the polynomials first

So,

9ab^2 = 3*3*a*b*b\\6bc^2=3*2*b*c*c

We can see that only 3 and b are common in factors of both polynomials

So,

The GCF is 3*b = 3b

Linda just turned 15 and is planning to go to college. She has researched her favorite Texas university and discovered the tuiti
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Linda needs to raise a minimum of $9,000 to completely pay for her tuition fee for the first year, that is, $250 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Tuition fee = $14,000 per year

Linda received a $5000 gift that she will use for her first year of college tuition during her 15th birthday

Amount remaining = Tuition fee - gift money received

= $14,000 - $5,000

= $9,000

Linda needs to raise $9,000 in the next three years to contribute to her first year of college tuition

The minimum amount Linda needs to save each month in the next three years to raise $9,000

= Remaining tuition / 3 years

= $9,000 / 3 * 12 months

= $9,000 / 36 months

= $250 per month
