Answer:

60.092%

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply create a ratio to find the difference created between the prices, and subtract this from 1 (100%) to find the percent decrease.

$19.95 / $49.99 = 0.39908

1 - 0.39908 = 0.60092

Given that we take away the difference from the price from the percent of the whole, we find that the price decrease is 60.092%.

Thus, we have found the percent decrease.

Cheers.

Answer:

<1 = 109 (Vertically Opposite to <3)

<2 = 71 (Corresponding to <6)

<3 = 109

<4 = 71 (Alternate Interior to <6)

<5 = 109 (Alternate Interior to <3)

<6 = 71

<7 = 109 (Corresponding to <3)

<8 = 71 (Vertically Opposite to <6)

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 = 2x + 29

<2 = x + 31

<3 = 2x + 29

<4 = x + 31

<5 = 2x + 29

<6 = x + 31

<7 = 2x + 29

<8 = x + 31

<1 + <2 = 180

(2x + 29) + (x + 31) = 180

(2x +x) + (29 + 31) = 180

3x + 60 = 180

3x = 180 - 60 = 120

x = 120/3

x = 40

<1 = (2x + 29)

   = (2 * 40) + 29

   = 80 + 29

   = 109

<2 = x + 31

    = 40 +31

    = 71

A professional baseball player signs a contract with a beginning salary of $3,000,000 for the first year and an annual increase
FrozenT [24]

Answer: the athlete's salary for year 7 of the contract is $3795957

Step-by-step explanation:

The player signs a contract with a beginning salary of $3,000,000 for the first year and an annual increase of 4%. This means that the amount he gets each year is 1.04 times of the previous year's amount. The rate at which his salary increases is in geometric progression. The nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^n-1

Where

Tn is the salary for the nth year

a is the salary for the first year

r is the rate at which the salary is increasing. So

a = 3,000,000

n = 7

r = 1.04

We want to determine T7. It becomes

T7 = 3000000 × 1.04^(7-1)

T7 = 3000000 × 1.04^6

Tn = $3795957

Answer:

The slope of function A is 2 times the slope of function B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In function A, every-time the input goes up 1 the output will also go up one. In function B, every time the input goes up by 1, the output goes up by two. Therefore, the slope of function A is 1 but the slope of function B is 1/2.

1/2*2=1
