Can you explain why an increase of 100% actually doubles the original amount?

Answer:

The original amount is always 100% at the start.

Adding 100% will make the amount 200%, which is double the original amount.

Adding 200% will make the amount 300%, which is triple the original amount.

what is the difference between the commutative distributive and associative properties when multiplying?
Fantom [35]
<span>The associative rule is a rule about when it's safe to move parentheses around. You can remember that because the parentheses determine which expressions you have to do first--which numbers can associate with each other. It looks like this:

For addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
For multiplication: (ab)c = a(bc)

The commutative property is about which operations you can do backward and forward. You can remember this by thinking of people commuting to work: they go to work every morning, then they repeat the same operation backward when they commute home. It looks like this:

For addition: a + b = b + a
For multiplication: ab = ba

Finally, the distributive property tells you what happens when you distribute one operation against another kind in parentheses. It looks like this:

a * (b + c) = ab + ac

In other words, the a is "distributed" over the b and c.

Of course, you can make these work together:

a * (b + (c + d))
= a * ((b + c) + d) (by the associative property)
= a * (d + (b + c)) (by the commutative property)
= ad + a (b + c) (by the distributive property)
= ad + ab + ac (by the distributive property again).

Hope this helps. </span>

Triangle WXY is isosceles. ∠YWX and ∠YXW are the base angles. YZ bisects ∠WYX. m∠XYZ = (15x)°. m∠YXZ = (2x + 5)°. What is the me
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Option D is correct.

The measure of \angleWYX = 150^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle WXY is isosceles  and \angle YWX and \angle YXW are base angles.

Isosceles Triangle:

A triangle with two equal sides, and two congruent base angles that means the angles are equal

By the definition, the base angles are equal i.e, m\angle YWX=m\angle YXW

Since, YZ bisects m\angle WYX

Angle Bisector theorem: An angle bisector is a line or ray that divides an angle into two equal angles

then, \angle WYX =2\angle XYZ or

Substitute the value of \angle XYZ=(15x)^{\circ} ;

\angle WYX =2(15x)^{\circ} = (30x)^{\circ}

The sum of measures of these three angles of  triangle WXY is equal to the 180 degree.

In triangle WXY we have;

\angle YXW+\angle WYX+\angle YWX=180^{\circ}

Substitute the value of m\angle YWX=m\angle YXW=(2x+5)^{\circ} and \angle WYX=(30x)^{\circ} in above formula:

2\angle YXW+30x=180^{\circ} or

2\cdot(2x+5)+30x=180^{\circ}

Simplify:

4x+10+30x=180^{\circ}

Combine like terms ;

34x+10^{\circ}=180^{\circ} or

34x=170^{\circ}

Simplify;

x= \frac{170}{34} =5^{\circ}

Substitute the value of x in  \angle WYX;

\angleWYX = (30x)^{\circ} = 30 \cdot 5 = 150^{\circ}

Therefore, the measure of \angleWYX = 150^{\circ}
