Answer:

As a percent: 115%

As a decimal: 1.15

As a fraction: $\frac{23}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

Suppose Michael spends some amount of money on food, and that money is set at 100%. He leaves a 15% tip for the waitress.

Thus, he is really paying 100%+15% = 115% of the original price.

To express a percentage as a decimal, we just divide by 100:

115% = 115/100 = 1.15

The same division should be simplified instead of operated to express the percentage as a fraction:

115% = $\frac{115}{100}$

Simplifying by 5:

115% = $\frac{23}{20}$

Summarizing:

As a percent: 115%

As a decimal: 1.15

As a fraction: $\frac{23}{20}$

In the graph shown, suppose that f(x) = 3.5x and h(x) = 1.5x. Choose the statement that COULD be true.

faust18 [17]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

Now these are exponential curves and the bases for the functions are 3.5 & 1.5

Also the graph of g(x) is between f(x) & h(x)

Hence the value of base called the scale factor must be between 3.5 & 1.5.

4 & 5 are more than 3.5

0.9 is smaller than 1.5

But π = 3.14 lies between 3.5 & 1.5.

Hence the only option which can represent the graph of g(x) is

Option D) is the right answer

Whats the area of a circle with a circumference of 31.4unit

marin [14]

Answer:

78.54

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have to divided 31.4 by 3.14 to get your diameter so you can get your radius. 31.4 divided by 3.14 equals 10 and 10 divided by 2 equals 5 which is you radius. The formula for area for a circle is πr². 5 squared is 25 and 3.14 times 25 equals 78 .54 which is your answer.

For A = {a,b}, determine A x P(A).

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Since A={a,b}, then $P(A)=\{\emptyset, \{a,b\}, \{a\}, \{b\}\}$ . Remember that the Cartesian Product of two sets A, B is defined by

$A\times B=\{(x,y): x\in A \text{ and } y\in B\}$ . Then

$A\times P(A)=\{(a,\emptyset),(a,\{a,b\}),(a,\{a\}), (a,\{b\}), (b,\emptyset),(b,\{a,b\}),(b,\{a\}), (b,\{b\})\}$
