First you would subtract 30000 - 23,500 = 6500

Now divide 6500 by the original number

6500/30000= 0.22

Multiply by 100 to get percent

22% decrease

30,000 - 23,500 = 6,500
$\frac{6500}{30000} \times 100\% \\ = \frac{650000}{30000} \\ = 21.66\%$

The answer is 21.66% or 22% decrease.

If you translate Point A ( 1 , 3 ) using the rule ( X , Y ) --> ( X + 2 , Y + 5 ) then A' coordinates

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

A' (3, 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the translation rule to A (1, 3 )

A (1, 3 ) → A' (1 + 2, 3 + 5 ) → A' (3, 8 )

Week 1 2 3 4 5 Water Level (inches) − 1 1 4 1 3 8 2 1 2 − 1 5 8 − 1 3 4 Between which two weeks did the water level change the m

suter [353]

Answer:

The water level change the most in week 3 and week 4

The change = -370 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Week 1 2 3 4 5

Water Level (inches) − 1 1 4 1 3 8 2 1 2 -1 5 8 -1 3 4

To find - Between which two weeks did the water level change the most? Calculate the change .

Proof -

The formula for change in water level with respect to week be-

Rate of Change in Water Level = Difference in water level / Difference in weeks

Now,

For week 1 and week 2

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{138 - 114}{2 - 1}$ = $\frac{24}{1}$ = 24 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 3

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{212 - 114}{3 - 1}$ = $\frac{98}{2}$ = 49 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 114}{4 - 1}$ = $-\frac{272}{3}$ = -90.67 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 114}{5 - 1}$ = $-\frac{248}{4}$ = -62 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 3

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{212 - 138}{3 - 2}$ = $\frac{74}{1}$ = 74 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 138}{4 - 2}$ = $-\frac{296}{2}$ = -148 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 138}{5 - 2}$ = $-\frac{272}{3}$ = -90.67 inches

Now,

For week 3 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 212}{4 - 3}$ = $-\frac{370}{1}$ = -370 inches

Now,

For week 3 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 212}{5 - 3}$ = $-\frac{346}{2}$ = 173 inches

Now,

For week 4 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 + 158}{5 - 4}$ = $\frac{24}{1}$ = 24 inches

∴ we get

The water level change the most in week 3 and week 4

The change = -370 inches

Note :

The highest change means which temperature goes the most change in water level. It can be negative also.

So, We have to take the modulus and then find the highest number.

Here, 370 > 173

So, Highest change occurs in Week 3 and Week 4 but not in Week 3 and Week 5.

If the given values in a right triangle are cos A =

Vlad1618 [11]

See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2

the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2

What triangle pairs can be mapped to each other using a single tranlation

shepuryov [24]

Answer: I think Figure 4 is the correct one

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not possible to map the triangle MNP and CDE together using just a single translation in Figure 3. With Figure 4, we can use a translation to map the triangle MNP and the triangle CDE. Accordingly, in the diagram, the triangle MNP and the triangle CDE can be translated to each other.
