To increase an amount by 3% what single multiplier would you use?

1 answer:

3 0

3% is the decimal 0.03 .

To make a number 3% bigger, multiply it by 1.03 .

The ' 1 ' part is the amount that's already there, and
the ' .03 ' part is the amount to be added onto it.

Why is -a² is always negative (a ≠ 0) and why is (-a)² is always positive?

hjlf

$-a^2=(-1)\cdot a\cdot a$

Regardless of the sign of $a$ , we have $a\cdot a=a^2\ge0$ (never negative). But multiplying by -1 makes it negative.

On the other hand,

$(-a)^2=((-1)\cdot a)^2=(-1)^2\cdot a^2=1\cdot a^2=a^2$

which can never be negative for real $a$ .

The function y=65x...

ANEK [815]

I believe there was a typo in the question. The equation states 65, buy the chart states 55. This is not linear at all.

one correct equation would be 2x=28 to depict the amount of money earned and then you would do 28/3 to find out the amount of money they each have after splitting the money they earned.

The scale on a map shows that 1 inch = 30 miles. If there are 4.5 inches between your present location and the place you want to

anastassius [24]

Scale : 1 inch = 30 miles

So, the ratio between the distance on the map and the real distance is 1:30

When a quantity increase/decrease in a ratio, the other one increase/decrease respectively.

Call the miles we have to go : x

1:30 = 4.5:x

(1x4.5):(30x4.5) = 4.5 : x

4.5 : 135 = 4.5 : x

So, x = 135 => We have to go 135 miles to get to the place we want to go.
