Answer:

The increase from $3.50 to $8.50 was 243%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase from $3.50 to $12.00 was $8.50.

We need to compare this to the original $3.50 by writing the following ratio, evaluating it and converting the result to a percentage:

$8.50

--------- = 2.43

$3.50

Multiply this result by 100%: (100%)(2.43) = 243%

The increase from $3.50 to $8.50 was 243%.

Answer:

A. ( 1 × 1 / 10 ) + ( 2 × 1 / 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 / 1000 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is written in expanded form if it shows the sum of the values of the individual digits that make up the number.

To write 0.124 in expanded form, follow these steps:

(i) Take the digits one after the other and multiply it by its value depending on its place.

Taking the first digit - 0

The value is 0 unit, where a unit is 1

Now multiply 0 by 1

=> 0 x 1

=> 0

Taking the second digit - 1

The value is 1 tenth, where a tenth is 1 / 10

Now multiply 1 by 1 / 10

=> 1 x 1 / 10

Taking the third digit - 2

The value is 2 hundredth, where a hundredth is 1 / 100

Now multiply 2 by 1 / 100

=> 2 x 1 / 100

Taking the fourth digit - 4

The value is 4 thousandth, where a thousandth is 1 / 1000

Now multiply 4 by 1 / 1000

=> 4 x 1 / 1000

(ii) Add the results obtained in (i) above

=> (0 x 1) + ( 1 x 1 / 10) + (2 x 1 / 100) + ( 4 x 1 / 1000)

=> ( 1 x 1 / 10) + (2 x 1 / 100) + ( 4 x 1 / 1000)

Therefore,

0.124 in expanded form is ( 1 × 1 / 10 ) + ( 2 × 1 / 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 / 1000 )

$\frac{1}{6}$ or 0.167 pounds more butter was used than sugar

Solution:

Given that, Desmond's Desserts made a batch of fresh scones with 2/3 of a pound of butter and 1/2 of a pound of sugar

To find: Amount of butter used than sugar

From given information,

$\text{Butter used} = \frac{2}{3} \text{ pound }$

$\text{Sugar used } = \frac{1}{2} \text{ pound }$

To find how much butter is used than sugar, find the difference between them

$Difference = Butter\ used - Sugar\ used$

$Difference = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{2}\\\\Difference = \frac{2 \times 2-1 \times 3}{3 \times 2}\\\\Difference =\frac{4-3}{6}\\\\Difference =\frac{1}{6} = 0.167\\\\$

Thus $\frac{1}{6}$ or 0.167 pounds more butter was used than sugar

Answer:

Answer is option d 

Step-by-step explanation:

$given \: expression \: is \: {(x - 3)}^{2} = 5 \\ {x}^{2} - 6x + 9 = 5 \\ subtracting \: 5 \: on \: both \: sides \: we \: get \\ {x}^{2} - 6x + 4 = 0 \\ on \: solving \: the \: quadratic \: equation \: by \\ \: completing \: square \: method \\ {x}^{2} - 6x = - 4 \\ adding \: {3}^{2} on \: both \: sides \: w e\: get \\ {x}^{2} - 6x + {3}^{2} = {3}^{2} - 4 \\ {(x - 3)}^{2} = 5 \\ x - 3 + = \sqrt{5} \\ x = \sqrt{5 } + 3$
