Answer:

21%

Step-by-step explanation:

Another 10% increased means it becomes 110*110/100 = 121. The first 10% increase means the second 10% increase will be an actual 11% increase from the original, so it will be a total of 21%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the first 10% increase is calculated as 10% of what you started with. The second 10% is 10% of what you started with plus 10% of the increase caused by the original 10% increase.

Let's do the maths…

Let's start with 100 to make things easy.

We know that 10% of 100 is 10.

We know that 20% of 100 is 20.

So if we increase 100 by 10% we get 110.

If we increase 100 by 20% we get 120.

Now lets do the 10% plus 10%.

From the first 10% increase we were left with 110.

Now if we take 10% of the 110 we have 11.

What does 8/7 to the power of 4 equel

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The equivalent expression $\frac{8^4}{7^4} = \frac{4096}{2401}\approx 1.71$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$(\frac{8}{7})^4$

We need to find the equivalent for given expression.

Solution:

$(\frac{8}{7})^4$

Now by using Law of indices which states;

$(\frac{a}{b})^n= \frac{a^n}{b^n}$

So applying the same in given expression we get;

$\frac{8^4}{7^4}$

Now we can say that;

$8^4 = 8 \times 8 \times 8 \times 8$

Also

$7^4 = 7 \times 7 \times 7 \times 7$

$\frac{8^4}{7^4} = \frac{8 \times 8 \times 8 \times 8}{7 \times 7 \times 7 \times 7}$

Now We know that;

$8 \times 8 \times 8 \times 8 = 4096$

$7 \times 7 \times 7 \times 7 = 2401$

On substituting we get;

$\frac{8^4}{7^4} = \frac{4096}{2401}\approx 1.71$

Hence The equivalent expression $\frac{8^4}{7^4} = \frac{4096}{2401}\approx 1.71$

If p→qp→q, and q→rq→r, then thats all it says

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: then q→r

Explanation:

If p → q

and q →r , then you can use the law of transitivity to conclude

q→r.

That is a basic law of sillogisms.

An example will help you to understand the transivity law:

Make p, stand for 3 > 3/4, q stand for 3/4 > 15 / 20, the you can conclude that 3 > 15 / 20.

3 > 3/4

3 /4 > 15 / 20

Then, 3 > 15 /20.

This is, from the fact that you know that 3 is gretar than 3/4 and that 3/4 is greater than 15/20, you can conclude that 3 > 15 / 20. That is transitivity and is a law of logic, which you can use to get conclusions.
