The new rent per month is $1,607.35.
Given: Original rent = $1,550; Cost of Living Index = 3.7%
1. Multiply the original rent by the Cost of Living Index
1,550 * .037 = 57.35

2. Add the product of original rent and Cost of Living Index to the original rent
1,550 + 57.35 = $1,607.35

Answer:
new rent = $1607.35

Explanation:
Assume that the original rent is x

We are given that the rent increased by 3.7%.
This means that:
new rent = x + 3.7% x
new rent = x + 0.037 x

We are given that x = 1550, therefore:
new rent = 1550 + 0.037(1550)
new rent = 1550 + 57.35
new rent = $1607.35

Hope this helps :)

What is the scientific notation for 140000
vampirchik [111]
You move the decimal point forward until it reaches the one so it looks like this:

1.4 x 10⁵ 

the exponent, 5, just tells you how many spaces the decimal point moved.

A. Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

B.  Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

C. Increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here, we have  number of employees in a company has been growing exponentially by 10% each year. So , If we have population as x in year 2019 , an increase of 10% in population in 2020 as  x + \frac{x}{100}\times10 which is equivalent to \frac{11x}{10}.

<u>A.</u>

For each month: We have 12 months in a year and so, distributing 10% in 12 months would be like \frac{10}{12}  = 0.84 . ∴ Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

<u>B.</u>

In every 3 months: We have , 12 months in a year , in order to check for every 3 months  \frac{12}{3} = 4 and Now, Population increase in every 3 months is \frac{10}{4}  = 2.5.  ∴ Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

<u>C.</u>

In every 20 months: We have , 12 months in a year in which increase in population is 10% . Left number of moths for which we have to calculate factor of increase in population is 20-12 = 8. For 1 month , there is 0.84% increase in population ∴ For 8 months , 8 × 0.84 = 6.72 %.

So , increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.

Carmen is an engineer making plans to run a rail line, represented by the transversal t, through a city.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

m\angle 1=155\degree

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing diagram is shown in the attachment.

We need to Examine Carmen’s rail plans to identify the measure of ∠1.

Recall that corresponding angles are equal.

From Carmen’s rail plans, the measure of \angle 1  corresponds to 155 degrees because the streets represented by lines V and W are parallel and t is a transversal.

Therefore m\angle 1=155\degree
