Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%
70 ft because 7 is bigger than 5 and 7x10=70
Answer:
What is the change in y-values from
Point A to Point B?
50
What is the change in x-values from
Point A to Point B?
1
What is the rate of change of the linear function?
50
feet per second
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: £83.70
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a ratio.
Let x be the amount he earns for 9 hours of work.
We can cross multiply:
x = 9*9.3
x = £83.70
Answer:
x = -3 or x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 9 from both sides.
x^2 - 9 = 0
Factor the left side. There is no common factor of the terms. It is a binomial which is the difference of two squares, so it factors into the product of a sum and a difference.
(x + 3)(x - 3) = 0
Set each factor equal to zero.
x + 3 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
Solve each equation.
x = -3 or x = 3
