Answer:

176

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find these kinds of problems, you need to divide the given number by the percentage in its decimal form.

25% = 0.25

44/0.25 = 176

To check your work, simply take the answer and multiply it with the percentage.

176*0.25 = 44

The original quantity is 20 and the new quantity is 15. Adam incorrectly says the percent decrease is about 14.29%. What is the

Yuki888 [10]

Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.

===================================================

Explanation:

The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5

The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35

Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429

That converts to 14.29%

This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below

---------------------

Difference = 20-15 = 5

Divide the difference over the original quantity

5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)

----------------------

Here's another way to approach the problem

A = old value = 20

B = new value = 15

C = percent change

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%

C = (-5/20)*100%

C = -0.25*100%

C = -25%

The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.

Substitute the values for a, b, and c into b2 – 4ac to determine the discriminant. Which quadratic equations will have two real

hoa [83]

Answer: $0=2x^2-7x-9\\0=4x^2-3x-1\\0=x^2-2x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the standard quadratic equation is ax^2+bx+c=0

Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.

1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9

$b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0$

So it has 2 real number solutions.

2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

$b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0$

So it has only 1 real number solution.

3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

$b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16=25>0$

So it has 2 real number solutions.

4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8

$b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32=36>0$

So it has 2 real number solutions.

5. a=3, b=5, c=3

$b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36=-9$

Thus it does not has real solutions.

The complete question is
Bradley made a house for his dog, Bowser, out of wood with a cube base and a triangular prism top. The dimensions of the dog house are a = 2 feet, b = 1 foot, and c = 1.4 feet.
If Bradley plans to paint the outside of the dog house blue, not including the bottom, how many square feet of paint will he use?

the picture in the attached figure

we know that

surface area of the figure=surface area of cube+surface area of triangular prism

surface area of cube=4*a²----> 4*2²-----> 16 ft²

surface area of triangular prism=2*[a*c]+2*[a*b/2]---> 2*[2*1.4]+[2*1]
surface area of triangular prism=5.6+2----> 7.6 ft²

surface area of the figure=16 ft²+7.6 ft²----> 23.6 ft²

the answer is
23.6 ft²
