Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
percent increase = (new number - original number) / (original number) * 100
= (1200 - 840) / (840) * 100
= (360) / 840 * 100
= 0.4285 * 100
= 42.85% rounded to nearest percent = 43% <==
Use a let statement
first
let x and x + 2 be the number so you write it like this
<u>let x = the first consecutive integer
</u><u>let x + 2 = the second consecutive integer
</u>
second
x(x+2)=323
x^2 + 2x = 323
-323 -323
x^2 + 2x -323 = 0
third
try to factor -323 so it is 19 and -17
(x + 19) (x - 17) = 0
x = 19
x = -17
hope this help
Answer:
Third graph down
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -6 ≥ 6(x-2)+8
Distribute
2x - 6≥6x -12+8
Combine like terms
2x - 6≥6x -4
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-6-2x ≥6x-2x-4
-6 ≥4x-12
Add 4 to each side
-6+4 ≥4x-4+4
-2 ≥4x
Divide by 4
-2/4 ≥4x/4
-1/2≥x
Closed circle at -1/2
Line going the the left
Answer:
x = -56
Step-by-step explanation:
x/7 = -8
Multiply each side by 7
x/7 *7 = -8*7
x = -56
