percent change = ((new value) - (reference value))/(reference value) × 100%

... = (487 -65)/65 × 100%

... = 422/65 × 100%

... = 6.492 × 100%

... ≈ 649%

The gestation period of rhinos is 649% longer than the gestation period of dogs.

Answer:

Solution given:

model A printers [a] prints=80books per day

model B printers [b] prints=55books per day

total no of printers =9

no of model A printers be x

and

no of model B printers be [9-x]

According to the question;

ax+(9-x)b=670 books

substituting value of a and b; we get

80x+(9-x)55=670

80x-55x+495=670

25x=670-495=175

x= $\frac{175}{25}$ =7

So;

no of model A printers =x=7

no of model B printers =9-x=9-7=2

is your answer.

Answer:

4(x-3)(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

We factor out the 4 first since all numbers are divisible by 4. That leaves us with x^2+3x-18.

Then we factor this to get (x-3)(x+6).

So the factored form of the equation is 4(x-3)(x+6)

|3x| = 9 Variable please.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

x = 3 or x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of 3x = 9

Divide nine by 3 to get 3

Absolute value represents the number of spaces an integer is from 0, so the answer could also be -3, as the absolute value of 3 x -3 (-9) is 9.
