Percent increase from 2000 to 2001 is 12% and from 2001 to 2002 is 12.6%. Thus period of 2001 to 2002 has higher increase percentage.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that,

Total circulation of local newspaper in 2000 = 3250

Total circulation of local newspaper in 2001 = 3640

Total circulation of local newspaper in 2002 = 4100

<em><u>Finding percent of increase in the newspaper’s circulation from 2000 to 2001:</u></em>

$\text { Percent increase from } 2000 \text { to } 2001=\frac{\text { change in circulation from 2001 - 2000 }}{\text { circulation in } 2000} \times 100$

$\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{3640-3250}{3250} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{390}{3250} \times 100=12 \%}\end{array}$

<em><u>Finding percent of increase in the newspaper’s circulation from 2001 to 2002:</u></em>

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent increase from } 2001 \text { to } 2002=\frac{\text { change in circulation }}{\text {circulation in } 2001} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{4100-3640}{3640} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{460}{3640} \times 100=12.6 \%}\end{array}$

As we can see 12% < 12.6%

So period of 2001 to 2002 has higher increase percentage.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown side of the right triangle.

Nesterboy [21]

The length of hypotenuse is 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Vertical side = a = 15

Horizontal side = b = 36

Hypotenuse = c

Using pythagorean theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(15)^2+(36)^2=c^2\\225+1296=c^2\\1521=c^2\\c^2=1521$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{1521}\\c=39$

The length of hypotenuse is 39.
