Percent increase and decrease. Original number:45 New number: 18

Mathematics
1 answer:
andre [41]3 years ago
4 0

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%

Traveling with a speed of 70 mph, a car covered a distance D miles in T hours. Write an equation that relates the distance D thi
irina [24]

Answer:

Part A) D=70T

Part B) D=105\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Par A) Write an equation that relates the distance D this car travels in T hours

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

The speed is a proportional relationship between the distance and the time

Let

D ----> the distance in miles

T ----> the time in hours

so

D=kT

In this problem the constant of proportionality k represent the speed of the car in miles per hour

we have

k=70\ mi/h

substitute

D=70T

Part B) Use the equation to find the distance the car travels between 3:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m

we know that

The time between 3:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m is equal to

5:00 p.m-3:30 p.m=1.5 hours

so

For T=1.5 h

substitute in the equation and solve for D

D=70(1.5)

D=105\ miles

Which function f (x) , graphed below, or g (x) , whose equation is g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2, has the largest maximum and
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

g(x), and the maximum is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

for given function f(x), the maximum can be seen from the shown graph i.e. 2

But for the function g(x), maximum needs to be calculated.

Given function :

g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2

let x=0 (as cosine is a periodic function and has maximum value of 1 at 0 angle)

g(x)= 3 cos1/4(0 + 0) +2

    = 3cos0 +2

     = 3(1) +2

     = 3 +2

     = 5 !
