You just multiply 450 by .18 and it'll give you the 18% you have to add to 450.
So the equation would look like:
450(.18)=81
Which you then add:
450+81= 531
So 531 is your total!
Answer:

Since the measurement can't be negative the correct answer for this case would be 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the figure attached illustrate the situation.
For this case the we know that the original area given by:

And we know that the initial area is a half of the entire area in red
, so then:

And we know that the area for a rectangular pieces is the length multiplied by the width so we have this:

We multiply both terms using algebra and the distributive property and we got:

And we can rewrite the expression like this:

And we can solve this using the quadratic formula given by:

Where
if we replace we got:

And the two possible solutions are then:

Since the measurement can't be negative the correct answer for this case would be 
29.) This is simply interpreting the linear function.
The function:
96+2.1x
a.) The 96 is what you start with from the beginning. So, we know Rachel weighed 96 ounces when she was born.
b.) Again, interpretation. The 2.1 is the slope, or the change in the line. So we know that Rachel gains 2.1 ounces each day.
30.) For this one, you just have to plug 9 into the equation for x.
Answer:
y > 2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, first let's simplify the equation by understanding the form.
y = mx + b is the form.
Currently we have 2x - y < -3, So we can subtract 2x on both sides to get
-y < -2x - 3
Let's multiply each term by -1 to get
y < 2x + 3, but wait! We have to flip the sign!
The answer is :
y > 2x + 3
Answer:
37.5 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The question might be trying to confuse the reader. Point (1) which states the difference in weight does not show any evidence on how it affects the speed of both cyclist. Point (2) show an important point where the distance traveled is 75 miles.
Cyclist B, who leave point X at 2pm overtook cyclist A at 4pm, showing that the time it took for B to overtook A is 2 hours
Speed = distance / time
= 75 miles / 2 hours
= 37.5 miles per hour
