The average value of two positive numbers is 30% less than one of the two numbers. By which percentage is average value bigger t
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

75% bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second be y.

So:

Average = \frac{x + y}{2}

And:

Average = (1 - 30\%) * x -----30% less than x

Substitute Average = (1 - 30\%) * x in Average = \frac{x + y}{2}

\frac{x + y}{2} = (1 - 30\%) * x

\frac{x + y}{2} = (1 - 0.30) * x

\frac{x + y}{2} = 0.70 * x

\frac{x + y}{2} = 0.70x

Cross multiply

x + y = 0.70x * 2

x + y = 1.40x

Collect like terms

1.40x - x = y

0.40x = y

Make x the subject

x = \frac{y}{0.40}

x = 2.50y

So, the average is:

Average = (1 - 30\%) * x

Average = (1 - 30\%) * 2.50y

Average =0.70 * 2.50y

Average =1.75y

Rewrite as:

Average =(1 + 0.75)y

Express as percentage

Average =(1 + 75\%)y

This means that the average is 75% bigger than the second number

Use the table below. Do x and y have a proportional relationship? Explain.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

For x and y to have a proportional relationship, then

the ratio of k = \frac{y}{x} must be equal for all points

(2, 5) → k = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5

(3, 7.5) → k = \frac{7.5}{3} = 2.5

(5, 12.5) → k = \frac{12.5}{5} = 2.5

(18, 8) → k = \frac{18}{8} = 2.25 ≠ 2.5

k is not equal for all values , hence no proportional relationship exists
