we know that

the number 100 (original quantity) represent the 100\%

the number 106 (new quantity) represent the x\%

Step 1

<u>by proportion find the value of x%</u>

\frac{100}{100\%} =\frac{106}{x\%}\\\\x*100=100*106\\ \\x=106\%

Step 2

<u>Find the increase percentage</u>

increase\ percentage=106\%-100\%=6\%

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The percent increase is 6\%

Find the inverse of the given function.
kodGreya [7K]

For this case we must find the inverse of the following function:

f (x) = - \frac {1} {2} \sqrt {x + 3}

We follow the steps below:

Replace f(x) with y:

y = -\frac {1} {2} \sqrt {x + 3}

We exchange the variables:

x = - \frac {1} {2} \sqrt {y + 3}

We solve for "y":

- \frac {1} {2} \sqrt {y + 3} = x

Multiply by -2 on both sides of the equation:

\sqrt {y + 3} = - 2x

We raise both sides of the equation to the square to eliminate the radical:

(\sqrt {y + 3}) ^ 2 = (- 2x) ^ 2\\y + 3 = 4x ^ 2

We subtract 3 from both sides of the equation:

y = 4x ^ 2-3

We change y by f ^ {- 1} (x):

f ^ {- 1} (x) = 4x ^ 2-3

Answer:f ^ {- 1} (x) = 4x ^ 2-3

A box is contructed out of two different types of metal. the metal for the top and bottom, which are both square, costs $5 per s
patriot [66]
Total cost, C = 8x^2 + 12xz 
volume, V = (x^2)*z = 10 
C = 8x^2 + 12x*10/x^2 
= 8x^2 + 120/x 
dC/dx = 16x - 120/x^2 = 0 
16x = 120/x^2 
x^3 = 120/16
 x = 1.957 ft

d^2C/dx^2 = 16 +240/x^3 = +ve for x = 1.957 
so, C is minimum when
x = 1.957 ft z = 2.61 ft

Length of the base x is 1.957 ft and height of side z is 2.61 ft

Find the surface area of a cylinder that has a raius of 13.5 cm., and a height of 90 cm. Show all work without using a calculato
professor190 [17]

\bf \textit{surface area of a cylinder}\\\\ SA=2\pi r(h+r)~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=13.5\\ h=90 \end{cases}\implies SA=2\pi (13.5)(90+13.5) \\\\\\ SA=27\pi (103.5)\implies SA=2794.5\pi \implies SA\approx 8779.18

well, the last part will be with a calculator, but you can simply use the area in π terms.
