Please help find the percent of increase?!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago

Subtract to find the difference:

2000 - 500 = 1500

Divide the difference by the original population:

1500 / 500 =  3

Multiply that by 100 to get the percentage:

3 x 100 = 300%

15.3+x=1.3-x so how do I solve it
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try getting rid of the numbers to isolate the x.

Add x on both sides to get rid of the x on the right side and to get 2x on the left side. This leaves us with 15.3 + 2x = 1.3

Subtract 15.3 on both sides to get rid of the 15.3 on the left side.

This would leave us with 2x = -14

Divide 2 on both sides to isolate the x.

The answer is x = -7

(x - 2)  -  speed up the river

\frac{30}{x - 2} = \frac{38}{x + 2}
30 * (x + 2) = 38 * (x - 2)
30x + 60 = 38x - 76

Given: <br><br> ∆SPM, PK⊥ SM<br><br> SP = 25, SM = 28, PK = 9<br><br> Find: m∠S, m∠M, PM
nevsk [136]

Answer:

∠S = 21.10°

∠M = 79.45°

PM = 9.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Here Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry suffice to solve our problem.

From the Pythagorean theorem we get:

KM^2+9^2=PM^2 and

(25-KM)^2+9^2=25^2.

We solve for KM in the second equation and get:

(25-KM)=\sqrt{25^2-9^2}

\therefore KM=25-\sqrt{25^2-9^2} =\boxed{1.68}

Now since

SK+KM=25\\\\ SK=\boxed{23.32}

Therefore

{\angle}S=Tan^{-1}(\frac{PK}{SK}) = Tan^{-1}(\frac{9}{23.32})=21.10^o

and

{\angle}M=Tan^{-1}(\frac{PK}{KM}) = Tan^{-1}(\frac{9}{1.68})=79.45^o.

And finally again from the Pythagorean theorem:

PM^2=PK^2+KM^2=9^2+1.68^2

\therefore PM=\sqrt{9^2+1.68^2} =9.16.

Thus,

∠S = 21.10°

∠M = 79.45°

PM = 9.16.

⊙O and ⊙P are given with centers (−2, 7) and (12, −1) and radii of lengths 5 and 12, respectively. Using similarity transformati
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Whereby circle \bigodotP can be obtained from circle \bigodotO by applying the transformations of a translation of T₍₁₄, ₋₈₎ followed by a dilation by a scale factor of 2.4, \bigodotO is similar to \bigodotP

Step-by-step explanation:

The given center of the circle \bigodotO = (-2, 7)

The radius of \bigodotO, r₁ = 5

The given center of the circle \bigodotP = (12, -1)

The radius of \bigodotP, r₂ = 12

The similarity transformation to prove that \bigodotO and \bigodotP are similar are;

a) Move circle \bigodotO 14 units to the right and 8 units down to the point (12, -1)

b) Apply a scale of S.F. = r₂/r₁ = 12/5 = 2.4

Therefore, the radius of circle \bigodotO is increased by 2.4

We then obtain \bigodotO' with center at (12, -1) and radius r₃ = 2.4×5 = 12 which has the same center and radius as circle \bigodotP

∴ Circle \bigodotP can be obtained from circle \bigodotO by applying similarity transformation of translation of T₍₁₄, ₋₈₎ followed by a dilation by a scale factor of 2.4, \bigodotO is similar to \bigodotP.
