Since you take 56 from 140 to get 84, then the percent decrease is 56/140. 56/140 is 0.4, and when converted into a percent it is 0.4 x 100 = 40%.

The answer is 40% decrease.

If the ratio of purple marbles to orange marbles is 3 to 8, how many orange marbles will I have if I have 48 purple marbles?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

You will have 128 orange marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation

Variable x = number of orange marbles

3/8 = 48/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 8 × 48

3x = 384

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3

1x = 128

x = 128

128 orange marbles

Check work:

Substitute the variable x for the answer

3/8 = 48/128

Cross multiply

3 × 128 = 8 × 48

384 = 384

If the numbers equal, the answer is correct

Use the law of sines to find what Angle R is:

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, according to the law of Sines, we have

$\frac{Sin(A)}{a} = \frac{Sin(b)}{b}$

In our case, we have S and R, so...

$\frac{Sin(S)}{s} = \frac{Sin(R)}{r}$

And we want to isolate R...

$r = sin^{-1} (\frac{Sin(S) * r}{s} ) = sin^{-1} (\frac{Sin(52) * 32}{26} ) = 75.90$

the angle of R is then 75.90 degrees.

Due to conservation efforts, the gray whale has been removed from the endangered species list. There are now 13,000 in the world

brilliants [131]

Answer:

$P = 13,000(1.11) ^ t$

Step-by-step explanation:

This scenario can be modeled using an exponential growth equation.

The exponential growth equations have the following form:

$P = p (1 + r) ^ t$

Where P is the population in year t

p is the initial population at t = 0

r is the growth rate

t is the time in years.

In this case we know that the current population is 13,000 and that the growth rate is 11%

$p = 13,000\\r = 0.11$

The equation that models this scenario is:

$P = 13,000(1 + 0.11) ^ t$

$P = 13,000(1.11) ^ t$

Let the equation C= 2.32 N + 34,180 represent the cost of raising a child, C on an income, N. If the Corlone family has an incom

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$126,980

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation C = 2.32N + 34,180 where 'C' is the cost of raising a child and 'N' is the income. If the Corlone family has an income of $40,000, you can use this value for 'N' and solve for 'C':

C = 2.32(40,000) + 34,180

C = 92,800 + 34,180

C = $126,980
