The percent increase is 150 percent
Answer:
I will answer in a general way because the options are not given.
We know that the area of model A is smaller than the area of model B.
For model A, we have 72 shaded sections, out of 100.
Then the quotient of model A is:
72/100 = 0.72
For model B we have 10 sections, and x shaded ones.
Because model B is greater than model A, we know that:
x/10 should be larger than 72/100
then we have the inequality:
x/10 > 0.72
x > 0.72*10
x > 7.2
And we can not have more than 10 shaded sections (because there is a total of 10 sections) then:
10 ≥ x > 7.2
Then x can be any whole number in that interval.
the possible values of x are:
x = 8
x = 9
x = 10
Answer:
y = m x + b is the standard form of a straight line
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (10 - (-8)) / (-3 - 0) = 18 / -3 = -6
When x = 0 y = b from the equation for a line
y = - 8
So our equation is
y = -6 x - 8
As a check let x = -2 then
y = (-6 * -2) - 8 = 12 - 8 = 4
Check on the graph to verify that this equation holds
Here are the solutions:
X^2 - X = 0
Factor out X
X(X - 1) = 0
Here are 2 solutions
X = 0 and X - 1 = 0, which is the same as X = 1.
The solutions are:
X = 0
X = 1.
