<h3>Answer: Net Increase of 26%</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
If it increases by 5%, then we use the multiplier 1.05
Think of it like saying 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05
Similarly, an increase of 20% means we involve 1.20
Combine those multipliers to get: 1.05*1.20 = 1.26
This is a net increase of 26%
Interestingly, we get fairly close to 25% which is what many students might go for (since 5 + 20 = 25). This is a beginner's trap.
----------------
An example:
Let's say the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit)
An increase of 5% means it moves to 1.05*20 = 21 degrees C
A 20% increase means we go to 1.20*21 = 25.2 degrees C
The shortcut would be to do a 26% increase to get 1.26*20 = 25.2 to help confirm we have the correct combined increase.
Congruent triangle are the same shape and same size exactly
Answer:
length = 10 cm; width = 25 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the length 2x and the width 5x. Since perimeter can be calculated by multiplying the sum of the length and width by 2 we can write:
2 * (2x + 5x) = 70
2 * (7x) = 70
7x = 35
x = 5 which means the length is 2 * 5 = 10 and the width is 5 * 5 = 25.

Answer:
625/17
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 times -5 is 25 because if you times a negative to a negative you get a positive, so do that to both sides and 25 times 25 is 625....... you may have to simplify, hope this helps :)
