An education budget went from 800000 to 900000 what is the approximate percent increase

Mathematics

ella [17]3 years ago

8 0

The approximate increase was 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Initial budget = Old value = 800000

Increased budget = New value = 900000

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 900000 - 800000

Change = 100000

Percent increase = $\frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100$

Percent increase = $\frac{100000}{800000}*100$

Percent increase = $\frac{100}{8}$

Percent increase = 12.5%

The approximate increase was 12.5%

Find a5, when a1 =4, r=5

sasho [114]

Answer:

Answer: a5 = 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

For a geometric sequence:

First term = a0

Second term = a1 = a0*r

Third term = a2 = a0*r^2

Fourth term = a3 = a0*r^3

....

nth term = a(n-1) = a0*r^(n-1)

Given: a1 = 4 = a0*r

Also: r = 5

So, a0*5 = 4 => a0 = (4/5)

a5 = a(6-1) = Sixth term = a0*r^5 = (4/5)*5^5 = 2500

Hope this helps

Follow the steps to finish solving the equation -3x+18=7x

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

x = 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation -3x + 18 = 7x. First we do your step 1, and get: 18 = 10x. When doing your step 2, we divide both sides by 10 to isolate x alone. 18/10 = 1.8. X = 1.8

Select a setting so that each given point will lie within the viewing window.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The given points are

$(-13,3)\\(0,0)\\(-2,-7)$

The setting would have a interval or 2 units above and below the minimum and maximum of each coordinate.

The given maxium horizontal coordinate is 0.

The given minimum horizontal coordinate is -13.

The given maximum vertical coordinate is 3.

The given minimum vertical coordinate is -7.

Now, we extend each maximum and minimum value by 2 units to create the setting.

So, the setting is

$x_{min}=-15\\x_{max}=2\\ y_{min}=-9\\y_{max}=5$

With a scale of 2 units.

Is (2, 2) a solution of the system y = x and x + 2y = 6?

Mariana [72]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 2 and y = 2 into both equations and if both are true then (2, 2) is a solution of the system.

y = x, that is

2 = 2 ← True

x + 2y = 6, that is

2 + 2(2) = 2 + 4 = 6 ← True

Thus (2, 2) is a solution of the system
