Answer:
36%
Step-by-step explanation:
line up $ and % data like this:
$2.79 represents 100%
$3.79 represents X%
cross multiply
X*2.79 = 3.79*100
divide both sides by 2.79
X= 3.79*100 / 2.79 ≈ 136%
so it increased 36%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not doing all of them, so you can learn.
Here's the first three:
9. 6-12x
10. (and 11? dude u need to rephrase) x/(5(x+2))
You'll apply the geometric mean formula. The idea is to multiply the two pieces of the hypotenuse: 5*11 = 55
Then apply the square root to get sqrt(55)
The exact answer in terms of radicals or square roots is sqrt(55)
Using a calculator, the approximate answer is sqrt(55) = 7.416198
If your teacher wants you to use a proportion, then one way to do it is to have
11/y = y/5
11*5 = y*y
55 = y^2
y^2 = 55
y = sqrt(55)
y = 7.416198 approximately
First, divide 2 by 4 which = 0.5
Next, move the decimal point two places over to make 0.5 = 50.0
Then, take 50.0 and add the % sign. This would make = 50%
I hope this helped!
It would take them about 129.9 hours to deliver all of the paper, because if you divide 44 by 52 you get 0.846153... now multiply that by 150 and you get 129.9230... Now round that to the nearest tenth which is 129.9.
Hope this helps :-)
