Answer:

60% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage increase/ decrease construct a fraction with numerator showing increase/ decrease and denominator with original number then multiply the fraction by 100%

here the decrease = 45 - 18 = 27

percent decrease = $\frac{decrease}{original}$ × 100%

= $\frac{27}{45}$ × 100% = 60%

Elden [556K]

Answer:

94.2

Step-by-step explanation:

i honestly dont know if this answer is right but i am currently takeing classes in math about Geometry. We was learning about Word problems, that had to do with volume, Area, and perimeter, and learned what radius is, etc..

So i thought you take the formula it gives you and use. Since Pie means 3.14 you use that in the formula. V= 1×3.14×2×15 = 94.2
you would multiply everything together because every number is close together.
the height is 15 cm, thats how you get 15 at the end.
next step is to solve the equation in your calculator. and it gives you that number. = 94.2

For x = 4, then it means 3 to the fourth power or 3 times 3 times 3 times 3 times 3. 3^4 = 81 and 8 times that is 648.

y(x) = 8 * 3^x where x = 4:

y(x) = 8 * 3^4 = 8 * 81
y(x) = 648

The Function Rule then being that for every value of x there is one and only one value of y. y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.

A car travels at constant speed for 7 days and covers 1500 miles. What is the speed in centimeters/minute? You may use the (appr

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Speed = 23809.52 cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A car travels at constant speed for 7 days and covers 1500 miles.

To find : What is the speed in centimeters/minute

Solution : Formula to find speed is

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

Distance traveled = 1500 miles and time taken = 7 days

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{1500 miles}}{\text{7 days}}$

Now, we have to convert miles into centimeter and days into minutes.

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour= 60 minute

24 hr= 24×60 minute

1 day = 24×60 minute

7 days = 7×24×60 minute = 10,080 minute

Now, 1 mile = 8/5 km = 1.6 km

1 km= 100000 cm

1.6 km = 1.6 × 100000 cm

1 mile = 1.6 × 100000 cm

1500 miles = 1500×1.6 × 100000 cm = 240,000,000 cm

Put back the values into speed

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{1500 miles}}{\text{7 days}}$

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{240,000,000 cm}}{\text{10,080 minute}}$

$\text{Speed}=\text{23809.523 cm/minute}$

Therefore, speed = 23809.52 cm/min

3241004551 [841]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

about $171,400

Step-by-step explanation:

William's total monthly debt is ...

$1012.84 +579.13 +250 +300 = 2141.97

On an annual basis, this is ...

12 × $2141.97 = $25,703.64

This will be 15% of (25703.64/0.15) = $171,357.60.

William's new annual salary should be about $171,400 to keep his debt ratio at the recommended 15%.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

A debt ratio of 15% is a pretty aggressive target. Most mortgage lenders like to see the "front end" ratio (housing expense) less than 28%, and the "back end" ratio (all debt) less than 36%.
