Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

You must divide the difference between the original and new amounts by the original amount.

50-40/50, or 10/50 which is equivalent to 20%

The triangle on the grid will be translated two units left. On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (negative 1, negati
nignag [31]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices of triangle ABC are (-1, -1), (-1, -5) and (0.5, -5).

We need to find the coordinates of triangle when it is translated two units left.

So, the rule of translation is

(x,y)\rightarrow (x-2,y)

Using this rule, we get

A(-1,-1)\rightarrow A'(-1-2,-1)=A'(-3,-1)

B(-1,-5)\rightarrow B'(-1-2,-5)=B'(-3,-5)

C(0.5,-5)\rightarrow C'(0.5-2,-5)=C'(-1.5,-5)

The vertices of triangle A'B'C' are A'(-3,-1), B'(-3,-5) and C'(-1.5,-5).

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Find the product.
4vir4ik [10]
Answer :

6{y}^{4} {z}^{2} + 12 {y}^{3} {z}^{2}-3 {y}^{3} {z}+3 {y}^{2} {z}^{2}

Step-by-step explanation :

To find the product of

3 {y}^{2} z(2 {y}^{2} z + 4yz - y + z)

First we expand the bracket ,

it implies that, we use the expression outside the bracket to multiply individual expressions inside the bracket.

Hence

3 {y}^{2} z(2 {y}^{2} z + 4yz - y + z)

= 3 {y}^{2} z(2 {y}^{2} z) + 3 {y}^{2} z(4yz) - 3 {y}^{2} z(y )+3 {y}^{2} z( z)

we now apply the law of indices

{a}^{m} \times {a}^{n} = {a}^{m+n}

meaning, when you are multiplying two expressions with the same bases , repeat one of the bases and add the exponents.

Then, simplify to obtain

= 6{y}^{4} {z}^{2} + 12 {y}^{3} {z}^{2}-3{y}^{3} {z}+3 {y}^{2} {z}^{2}

How to calculate standard deviation given mean and sample size?
ad-work [718]
In addition to mean and sample size you will need the individual scores.

The formula for standard deviation is:

S^2 = E(X-M)^2/N-1

Here's an example: 
Data set: 4,4,3,1
Mean: 3
Sample size: 4

First, put the individual scores one after the other and subtract the mean from it.
4 - 3 = 1
4 - 3 = 1
3 - 3 = 0
1 - 3 = -2

Second, square the answers you got from step 1. 
1^2 = 1
1^2 = 1
0^2 = 0
-2^2 = 4
Third, plug the values from step 2 into the formula. 

S^2 = (1+1+0+4)/(4-1) = 6/3 = 2

Standard deviation = 2

Which expressions are equivalent to -2.5(1-2n) - 1.5n
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

-5n - 4


Step-by-step explanation:

The goal is to simplify this expression.


1. Distribute

-2.5 * 1 = -2.5

-2.5 * 2n = -5n


Now, we have

-2.5 - 5n - 1.5


2. Combine like terms

-2.5 + (-1.5) = -4 (+ * - = -   The - cancels out the +)


3. Put it together

-5n - 4


I hope I helped!

Let me know if you need anything else!
