Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

Increase = New Number - Original Number.

Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100.

The gym teacher has $250 to spend on volleyball equipment. She buys 4 volleyball nets for $28 each. Volleyballs cost $7 each. Ho

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The maximum number of volleyballs that she can buy is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of volleyballs

we know that

The cost of each volleyball net ($28) by the number of volleyball nets (4) plus the cost of each volleyball ($7) multiplied by the number of volleyballs (x) must be less than or equal to $250

The inequality that represent this situation is

$28(4)+7x\leq 250$

Solve for x

$112+7x\leq 250$

subtract 112 both sides

$7x\leq 250-112$

$7x\leq 138$

Divide by 7 both sides

$x\leq 19.7$

therefore

The maximum number of volleyballs that she can buy is 19

For a sequence an=an-1+an-2 and a1=1, a2=2, find its first four terms<br>

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

3, 5, 8, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + aₙ₋₂

a₃ = a₂ + a₁ = 2 + 1 = 3

a₄ = a₃ + a₂ = 3 + 2 = 5

a₅ = a₄ + a₃ = 5 + 3 = 8

a₆ = a₅ + a₄ = 8 + 5 = 13

The product of the page numbers on two facing pages of a book is 182. find the page numbers. g

miskamm [114]

The page numbers must have a difference of one, so:
n * (n+1) = 182
n^2 + n -182 =0
Solving by the quadratic formula we see n = 13 and n+1 = 14
