Answer:

The spider ate 10 bugs this month.

Step-by-step explanation:

A spider ate last month =  8 bugs

If the spider ate more bugs this month = 25%

First we calculate 25% of 8 (last month's value)

= \frac{25}{100} × 8

= 0.25 × 8 = 2

The spider ate 2 more bugs than the last month.

So this month spider ate =  8 + 2 = 10  bugs.

The spider ate 10 bugs this month.

To increase by a percentage, multiply by the 1+(the percentage/100). i.e. in this case to find 25% we'd multiply by 0.25, so to increase by 25% we basically find 125% of it, which involves multiplying by 1.25.

8*1.25 is 10, so the spider ate 10 bugs this month.

How do you know if a function is quadratic??
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Usually it's in standard form: ax²+bx+c

or vertex form: y=a(x-h)²+k

If you put the graph into a graphing calculator it's going to look like a hill/depression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form ex: 3x²+2x+1

Vertex form ex: y=4(x-1)²-2

Herber read a total of 36pages in 2 hours. Later on, he read 90 pages in 5 hours. How many pages did Herber read each hour.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

18 pages per hour.

If you do 36 (the pages/amount) divided by 2 (The time), you get 18.

To double check, when you do 90 (The pages/amount) divided by 5 ( The time), then you get 18 again.

Therefore the answer is 18 pages per hour.

Solve the simultaneous equation x+y/4=1/2 and x-3y/3=2
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x+y/4 = 1/2

x-3y/3 = 2

move variables to one side:

multiply the first equation by 4 to get: x+y =2

and the second equation by 3 to get: x-3y =6

then subtract the equations to cancel out x:

 x+y = 2

- x-3y = 6

then u get

y--3y = 2-6

4y = -4

y=-1

substitute to solve for x:

x-1 / 4 =1/2

x-1 = 2

x=3

check:

3+-1

2/4= 1/2

correct!!!
