Answer:

Notice that the distance is in the y-axis, and the time in the x-axis.

First, let's see what happens in the four points:

A) You can see that in point A, the steepness of the line increases, this means that the speed of the runner increases in that point.

B) In this point, the runner that increased his/her speed in point A crosses the graph of another runner, this means that they are at the same distance to the end and at the same time.

C) In this point again two runners are at the same distance and the same time, and we also can see that the runer that increased his/her speed at point A, now has reached the end of the race (because his line stops increasing, wich means that he/she already finished the race)

D) The las runner finishes the race at point D.

Then the first runner that finishes the race is the one with the shorter graph (shorter graph means that he ran for less time than the others, wich means that he/she finished first)

The last runner is the one that finished at point D,

The middle one finishes right after the point C.

PLEASE GIVE AN EXPLANATION WITH YOUR ANSWER! The table below shows the change in the value of shares over the last three years.
gulaghasi [49]

First, lets convert them into multipliers:

The multiplier for a:

                             25% increase = 1.25

                             40% decrease = 0.6

                             40% increase  = 1.4

Now to work out the overall percentage change, we just times all of the multipliers together, and convert it back to a percentage:

1.25 x 0.6 x 1.4 = 1.05    

So the overall multiplier is 1.05

And a multiplier of 1.05 = a <u>5% increase</u>.

That means that the percentage change is + 5%

_________________________________________

Answer:

The percentage change in shares from the start of 2013 to the end of 2015 is:

+ 5%

Note: if you haven't been taught multipliers - then ask and I'll try my best to explain!

In the question, there are certain information's that are of immense importance in regards to finding the answer. The first information is that Jose Rivera had purchased 7 textbooks for his classes at River Run Community College. The price that Jose Rivera had to pay was $208.55. The average cost per textbook needs to be found.
The cost of 7 textbooks purchased by Jose Rivera = 208.55 dollars
Then
The cost of 1 textbook purchased by Jose Rivera = (208.55/7) dollars
                                                                               = 29.79 dollars
The average cost of a textbook purchased by Jose Rivera rounded to the nearest cent is 29.80 dollars.
