A consumer price index (CPI) measures changes in the price level of market basket of consumer goods and services purchased by households.The annual percentage change in a CPI is used as a measure of inflation
CPI=(1,445÷745)×100=194
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to create two equations for each company and then set them equal to each other. The keywords base fee means you will pay this amount regardless, so this amount stays constant and it will be the constant in the equation. The other keyword is per. Per will link the variable with the coefficient.
The first equation for company M:
y = 12x + 60
The second equation for company N:
y = 9x + 120
Set the equations equal to each other.
9x + 120 = 12x + 60
Solve for x. I am going to subtract 9x from both sides first.
9x - 9x + 120 = 12x -9x +60
120 = 3x +60
Now, I will subtract 60 from both sides.
120 - 60 = 3x + 60 - 60
60 = 3x
Finally, I will divide both sides by 3
60/3 = 3x/3
x = 20
20 is how many guests it will take for the total cost to be the same.
Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly. I will be assisting you today with answering this problem, and will be teaching you how to deal with it on your own in the future.
First, let's take a look at our question, and evaluate it.
"The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?"
To clarify this problem, we are looking for the patio's width.
Let's first understand what the area of a rectangular shape is.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is "Length times Width", or "L • W".
So this is how the equation should look like:
A = L • W
We have our area, 5 5/8, and we have our length, 1 1/2.
To make things more simple, let's convert our fractions to decimals. Now, to convert our fractions to decimals, let's set our denominators (the numbers on the bottom of a fraction) equal to another fraction, with x as the numerator (the numbers on the top of a fraction) and 100 as the denominator.
So we have 1/2 and x/100. Divide 100 by 2 to find x (as 1/2 of anything is dividing by 2).
100 / 2 = 50, so 1 1/2 = 1.50 as a decimal.
Now, let's try 5/8.
1/8 = 0.125, so multiply 0.125 by 5.
0.125 • 5 = 0.625.
5 5/8 = 5.625 as a decimal.
So, now we have our equation:
A = L • W
Plug in our numbers.
5.625 = 1.50x
To isolate and solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 1.50, so let's do that.
5.625 / 1.50 = 3.75
1.50x / 1.50 = x
We are now left with:
x = 3.75
Your answer is:
The patio's width is 3.75 yards.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
10√5 - 5√2
or
5(2√5 - √2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
2√5(5 - 5√5)
Required:
Multiply and simplify
Solution:
2√5(5 - 5√5)
Apply distributive property by multiplying each term in the bracket by 2√5
2√5*5 - 2√5*5√5
2*5√5 - 2*5√5*√5
10√5 - 10√25
10√5 - 10*5
10√5 - 50
10√5 - (25*2)
10√5 - 5√2
Or
5(2√5 - √2)
