To add fractions, first convert them to have equal denominators.
3/4= 9/12 (multiply both sides by 3)
2/3= 8/12 (multiply both sides by 4)
From here, add the numerators while keeping the denominator.
9/12+ 8/12= 17/12
Final answer: 17/12 or 1 5/12
Not sure question is complete, assumptions however
Answer and explanation:
Given the above, the function of the population of the ants can be modelled thus:
P(x)= 1600x
Where x is the number of weeks and assuming exponential growth 1600 is constant for each week
Assuming average number of ants in week 1,2,3 and 4 are given by 1545,1520,1620 and 1630 respectively, then we would round these numbers to the nearest tenth to get 1500, 1500, 1600 and 1600 respectively. In this case the function above wouldn't apply, as growth values vary for each week and would have to be added without using the function.
On one hand, the function above could be used as an estimate given that 1600 is the average growth of the ants per week hence a reasonable estimate of total ants in x weeks can be made using the function.
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation: First determine whether the number increases or decreases. Since the number changes from 100 to 140 it's getting bigger, so it increases.
To find the percent increase, we use the following formula.
The amount of change is the difference between the two numbers which is 40 and we get this by subtracting 100 from 140. The original number will be the number that we started with which is 100.
140/100 simplifies to 0<em>.</em>4.
Finally, we want the percent increase so we write 0<em>.</em>4 as a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get 40%.
Therefore, the percent increase is 40%.
Answer: $133.20
Step-by-step explanation: To simply find the sales tax all you have to do is:
Step 1 Multiply: 120 x .11 = 13.2
Step 2 Add: 120 + 13.2 = 132.2
So Robert actually has to pay $133.20
