Answer:11.7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Recognize variables. Starting price is 9, it’s increasing by 1.5% each year, the question asks for the price in 20 years.

2. Convert percentage to decimal. Most calculators won’t understand multiplying by percentages, and instead will understand multiplying by decimals. A decimal is something we can easily work with. It is more commonly taught to work with decimals as well. With that said 1.5% equals .015. (The number in the ones place in the percentage is always in the hundredths place when converted to a decimal, the tens to the tenths, the hundreds in the percentage to the ones place in the decimal, the hundredths in the percentage to the ten thousandths in the decimal. Basically, every individual number [the 5 in 1.5] moves two spaces to the right when going from percentage to decimal form, likewise two to the left going from decimal to percentage form. 23%=.23, 104%=1.04, 0.5%=.05, 1.234%=.01234)

3. Make your equation

20(9*(.015))+9

+9 is your starting point

9*(.015) gives you the amount the price increases per year

20 is multiplied then to that increased price for the next 20 years

4. Crunch em numbers

Find the unit rate.<br> 48 cupcakes in 6 boxes=cupcakes per box
natka813 [3]

Answer: 8 cupcakes per box

Step-by-step explanation: "Per box" means in 1 box, so we can rewrite the given statement using fractions as

<em>48 cupcakes/6 boxes</em> = <em>__ cupcakes/1 box</em>.

To find out what goes in the blank, notice that we

have a 1 in the denominator of our second fraction.

So we want to find a fraction that is equivalent

to 48/6 that has a 1 in the denominator.

If we divide the numerator and denominator of 48/6 by 6,

we get the equivalent fraction 8/1 or <em>8 cupcakes/1 box</em>.

So now we have <em>8 cupcakes/1 box = __cupcakes/1 box</em>.

So an 8 must go in the blank which means that the unit rate

for 48 cupcakes in 6 boxes is <em>8 cupcakes per box</em>.

Find m&lt;2<br> See picture for full problem. Please and thank you!
aev [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

as the other triangle is Isosceles triangle which means it's two sides are equal and two angles are equal so

to find its 3rd angle apply angles sum property on it

according to which

2(68) + x = 180

136 + x = 180

x = 180 - 136

x = 44°

also we know, the other triangle is right angled triangle

so, it's one angle is 90° and 2nd angle is 44° (Vertically opposite angle)

therefore to know measure of angle 2 apply angle sum property of triangle in it too.

so,

90 + 44 + angle 2 = 180

134 + angle 2 = 180

angle 2 = 180 - 134

angle 2 = 46°

therefore, angle 2 is 46°

hope this answer helps you dear!

I need some answers plzz 90=-105+x
leonid [27]

Hey there!

Answer:

x = 195

Explanation:

So here is your equation:

90 = -105 + x

First, you simplify both sides of the equation:

90 = x - 105

Then, you will have to turn it around:

x - 105 = 90

So after you do that, you will have to Add the 105 to both sides:

x - 105 + 105 = 90 + 105

x = 195

So 195 is your answer.

Hope this helps! :D
