Answer:

A 26.56% increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

A 12% increase corresponds to a total of 112% of the original amount.

Hence, a 13% increase of the 112% of the original amount would be equal to 1.12*1.13 = 1.2656, which equates to 126.56% of the original amount.

Hence, the single percentage change would be a 26.56% increase.

Hope this helped!

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2,0) and (1,0)? Write

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

m=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be found using:

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Let's call (2,0) our "2" coordinate, and (1,0) our "1" coordinate.

Coordinates are written as: (x,y)

Therefore, our x2 is 2 and y2 is 0. Our x1 is 1 and y2 is 0.

Substitute these values into the formula .

$m=\frac{0-0}{2-1}$

$m=\frac{0}{1}$

m=0

The slope of the line is 0

xeze [42]

11 hours and 15 minutes because doing 2.25, which is equal to 2 hours and 15 minutes, times 5 you end up getting 11.25, and converting that to time you get 11 hours and 15 minutes.
