Answer:
132 days to 125.4 days percent of change
Step-by-step explanation:
p= N-O/O x 100% where p is the percent change, is the New value and O is
the Old value. We are given the Old value (132) and the New value (125.4) which we can substitute into the formula to calculate the percent change:
p= 125.4-132/132 x 100%
p= -6.6/132 x 100%
p= (-660/132%)
p= -5%
You use the butterfly method:
360 24
___ ___
X 100
multiply 360 by 100 to get 36000
then divide by 24 to get 1500
Answer:
14/27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the unknown number
-2/3 * x = -28/81
Multiply each side by -3/2
-3/2*-2/3 * x = -28/81 * -3/2
x = 28/2 * 3/81
x =14*1/27
x = 14/27
Answer:
5770 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the wall under the Waters proposal is 20 feet and the height of the wall under the Barrett proposal is 34 feet and its perimeter is 9809 feet. Since there is an increase in the dimensions of the wall, we find this percentage increase.
So, the percentage increase in the height of the wall is thus (New height - Old height)/Old height × 100%
New height = 34 feet and Old height = 20 feet
So, Percentage increase = (New height - Old height)/Old height × 100% = (34 ft - 20 ft)/20 ft × 100 % = 14/20 × 100% = 7/10 × 100% = 70 % increase.
Since all the dimensions increase by the same amount, the perimeter in the Waters proposal increases by 70% to the perimeter in the Barrett proposal.
Let P = perimeter in the Waters proposal and P' = perimeter in the Barrett proposal.
So, the percentage increase in perimeter is
(P' - P)/P × 100 % = 70 %
We now find P
(P' - P)/P = 70%/100%
(P' - P)/P = 0.7
P' - P = 0.7P
P' = 0.7P + P
P' = 1.7P
P = P'/1.7
So, substituting the value for P' = 9809 feet
P = P'/1.7
= 9809 ft/1.7
= 5770 feet
So, the perimeter of the wall under the Waters Proposal is 5770 feet.
