Answer:

So I have my own way of thinking:

So lets say a 25% increase of 60.

First what I would do is 25% x 60 = 15. THEN MAKE SURE YOU DON"T FORGET THIS STEP. You will have to do 60 + 15 = 75.

So that is for increase, you can do this with any numbers :).

So now lets say 25% decrease of 60.

First what I would do is 25% x 60 = 15 and then do 60 - 15 = 45. (Since we are decreasing)

So that is for the decrease, you can do this with any numbers :).

I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!

How many school buses will fit a thousand people if the school bus seats 72
sdas [7]
For problems like these, we use something called a ceiling function, in which \lceil{x}\rceil = \text{the smallest integer that is greater than or equal to x}. If we do \lceil1000 / 72\rceil, we get that we do \lceil13.888...\rceil, which is 14 buses. We take the ceiling of the division because if we don't, we know that there are going to be extra kids left over that won't be able to seat on a bus. If we just rounded down to 13 buses, we would have been able to seat only 936 kids, a full 64 kids left over.

Which expression is equivalent to (18)2⋅(19)2
sladkih [1.3K]

The expression that is equivalent to the given expression where the expression is given as (18)2⋅(19)2 is (18 * 19)^2

<h3>How to determine which expression is equivalent to the given expression? </h3>

The expression is given as

(18)2⋅(19)2

Rewrite the above expression properly

So, we have

(18)^2 * (19)^2

The factors in the above expression have the same exponent.

So, the expression can be rewritten as

(18 * 19)^2

Hence, the expression that is equivalent to the given expression where the expression is given as (18)2⋅(19)2 is (18 * 19)^2

PLZ EXPLAIN , I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO DO
Phantasy [73]
Make sure you know the formula pertaining to the question. 

1. c=2(pi)(r)
2. c=2(pi)(d)

r= radius 
d= diameter
c= sircumference

So we are given that the circumference of a circle is 12.3pi and the radius is unknown. 

So let's plug in the known values 

**we use the formula with the radius, becuase we are looking for the radius. 

c=2(pi)(r)
12.3(pi)=2(pi)(r)

divide each side by pi

12.3=2(r)

divide each side by 2

r=6.15 in.
