<h3>
Answer: 20% increase</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
A = old value = 110
B = new value = 132
C = percent change
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(132-110)/110
C = 20%
The positive C value means we have a percent increase, which corresponds to the fact that A = 110 increases to B = 132.
The B-A = 132-110 = 22 portion up top indicates that the increase is 22 pounds, which when divided over 110, gets us 22/110 = 0.20 = 20%
---------------
Checking the answer:
20% of 110 = 0.20*110 = 22
She's able to lift 22 extra pounds on top of the 110 pounds she can handle previously, so she can now lift 110+22 = 132 pounds. The answer is confirmed.
Yes I think it really is the correct answer
82
The sum of the three angles is 180. One is given and the other we can figure out because it forms a straight line (180) with the angle to the left outside. The outside angle is 117, so 180-117 is 63.
So then add up the 3 angles in the triangle
63+35+y=180
y= 82
P(3) = 1/8
P(5)=1/8
Events are independent.
P(3, then 5) = 1/8 *1/8 =1/16
Answer is 1/16.
