The number of tomato plants Jeff planted went from 4 last year to 12 this year. Find the percent increase.

1 answer:

6 0

200%

We find the difference, then divide that by the original. 12-4/4 = 8/4 = 2
Multiply by 100 to get the percentage, = 200%

Also, adding 4 would be a 100% increase, and adding 8 is twice that, so 200%.

What is the surface area?

mash [69]

$\large\bf{\underline{Answer:}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{ = 3000 \:ft^2}$

__________________________________________

$\large\bf{\underline{Given:}}$

A 3 dimensional figure with 5 sides
it has 3 rectangles with dimensions 28 ft and 25 ft
And 2 triangles with base =30 ft and height = 20 ft

$\large\bf{\underline{To\: find:}}$

Total surface area of figure

$\large\bf{\underline{Therefore:}}$

$\bf{area \:of\: figure}$

‎ㅤ ${\bf = area \:of \:3\: rectangles + 2 \: triangles}$

$\large\bf{\underline{Formulas:}}$

$\boxed{\bf\pink{area\:of\: triangle= \frac{1}{2}\times base\times height}}$

$\boxed{\bf\pink{area\:of\: rectangle=length\times breadth}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{= 3\times (28 \times 25 )+ 2(\frac{1}{2} \times 30 \times 20)}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{= 3 \times 800 + 2 \times 300}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{=2400+ 600}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{= 3000}$

Please factor 5x^2-23x+12

STALIN [3.7K]

5x^2-23x+12

= 5x^2 - 20x - 3x + 12

= 5x(x - 4) - 3(x - 4)

= (5x - 3)(x - 4)

Hope that helps
