Step-by-step explanation:

$20 - $18 = $2

to get % of increase we need to know what % of $18 the $2 are.

$2 ÷ $18 = 0.11111111........

Multiply this number by 100 and you will get the percentage.

0.111111111111........ x 100 = 11.1111111111....%

Suppose a car going 65 mph is traveling north parallel to a train going 50 mph. Once the front of the car is as far north as the
scoray [572]

Answer:

0.75 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we have to find the difference in the distance the train and car travelled

65/60 is 1.083333 which is miles per minute then multiplied by 3 is 3.25 mile gone in 3 minutes

For the train it is 50/60 which is 0.833333 and the times 3 is 2.5 miles in three minutes

3.25 miles minus 2.5 miles is 0.75 miles so that is how long the train is

4 times a number is 32 less than the square of that number. Find the negative solution.
zvonat [6]

Answer:

<u>The negative solution is -4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

x = a number

4x = x² - 32 (4 times a number is 32 less than the square of that number)

2. Let's solve for x and find the negative solution:

4x = x² - 32

-x² + 4x + 32 = 0

x² - 4x - 32 = 0 (Multiplying by - 1)

(x - 8) (x + 4) = 0

(x₁  - 8) = 0

(x₂ + 4) = 0

x₁ = 8

<u>x₂ = -4</u>

<u>The negative solution is -4</u>

the measure of an angle is 12 less than twice the measure of its supplement. what is the measure of the angle
Alex

Answer:

Two angles are said to be supplementary if they add up to 180 degrees. So the supplement of an angle is obtained by subtracting it from 180. i.e., if x is an angle, its supplement is 180−x

A triangle has sides of length 2, 2, and 3. Which of the following is the measure of the obtuse angle of the triangle?
kramer

Answer:

97.18^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse angle in the triangle is opposite to the greatest side. The greatest side in the triangle with sides lengths 2, 2 and 3 is side with length 3. By the cosine rule,

3^2=2^2+2^2-2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot \cos \alpha,\\ \\9=4+4-8\cos \alpha,\\ \\-8\cos \alpha=9-4-4=1,\\ \\\cos \alpha=-\dfrac{1}{8},\\ \\\alpha\approx 97.18^{\circ}.
