Answer:

49.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Number - x

2.5% of the number is 0.025x.

New number is  x+0.025x = 1.025x.

New number is 51.

1.025x = 51

x = 51/1.025≈ 49.8

Determine wether the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant
evablogger [386]

Answer:

decreasing

Step-by-step explanation:

"Increasing" means the graph is going up from left to right.

"Decreasing" means the graph is going down from left to right.

"Constant" means the graph is "flat" (this is not a technical term) it is keeping the same y value, neither going up nor going down.

What can be super confusing is the

(2.2, 5) mentioned in the question. THIS IS NOT A POINT. It is an interval and points and intervals unfortunately have the same notation sometimes.

An "interval" is a section of the graph, here: FROM 2.2 not including 2.2, TO 5 not including 5. These are like the address on the x-axis. If you look at your graph at 2.2 on the x-axis, it is a peak(relative maximum) and it goes down to the right to where x is 5 where it bottoms out (relative minimum) So on that interval, from 2.2 to 5, the graph is DECREASING.

It takes 45 minutes because if you do 6 divided by 2 you get 3 and then you do 3 x 15 you get 45. So 45 is your answer
