Answer: Choice D
Explanation:
The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten
An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1
Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%
Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05
So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).
Answer:
2.25 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a conversion problem. The connection between ton and pound is in the following order:
1 pound = 0.0005 tons
By multiplying each side by 4500 we can easily find the answer of this problem:
4500 pounds = 2.25 tons

Explanation:
Given function: f(x) = -2x² - 3x + 20
To find the x-intercepts of a function, f(x) = 0
=================
-2x² - 3x + 20 = f(x)
-2x² - 3x + 20 = 0
-2x² - 8x + 5x + 20 = 0
-2x(x + 4) + 5(x + 4) = 0
(-2x + 5) (x + 4) = 0
-2x + 5 = 0, x + 4 = 0
-2x = -5, x = -4
x = -5/-2,x = -4
x = 5/2, x= -4
Coordinates: (-4, 0), (5/2, 0)
Answer:
d. - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for direct variation is
y = kx
We know y =3 when x = -9
3 = k(-9)
Divide by -9
3/-9 = -9k/-9
-1/3 = k
The equation is then
y = -1/3 x
We know y = 5
5 = -1/3 x
Multiply each side by -3
-3*5 = -3*-1/3x
-15 = x
