Answer:

the new area is 1% smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a rectangle is length times breadth.

let's call them a and b

Area = a × b

now, a is increased by 10%. that means it is multiplied by 11/10.

because 100% means the whole thing, 1% means a 1/100th part of the whole. and 10% then means 10 times the 1/100th part of 10 × 1/100 = 10/100 = 1/10

if then simmering increases by 10% it means that it is the original 100% plus 10%.

so, it is 100/100 + 10/100 = 10/10 + 1/10 = 11/10

therefore the new length is

a(new) = a(old)×11/10

in exactly the same way, when the breadth is reduced by 10% we get then

breadth(new) = breadth(old)×9/10

so, Area(new) = a(new)×b(new) = a(old)×11/10 × b(old)×9/10

remember, Area(old) = a(old)×b(old)

so, Area(new) = a(old)×b(old) × 11/10 × 9/10 =

= Area(old) × 11/10 × 9/10 =

= Area(old) × 99/100

that means the new area has lost compared to the old area 1/100th of its size. 1/100th = 1%

PLSSS HELP ME WITH MATH

Step-by-step explanation:

always remember, equations and inequalities are like a scale with 2 pans (left and right).

a variable is like a placeholder, an empty spot on the pans. and the expressions on both sides are kind of the conditions for the things to put in these empty spots so that the status of the scale stays unchanged.

for an equation the scale has to stay balanced all the time.

and in an inequality one side is heavier that the other (it normally does not matter how much heavier) with "<" or ">" signs, or the scale can be also balanced with "<=" or ">=" signs. just the other side must never be heavier.

A

so, in our case here

2x - 5 = 3

yes, the solution (the ONLY solution, actually) is x = 4. no other value of x allows the scale to be balanced.

2x - 5 >= 3

well, since it is a ">=" sign, we can be lazy and treat it like the equation above, and x = 4 is therefore a valid solution for the inequality too.

but so is every other value of x that makes the left side "heavier". what about e.g. 5 ?

2×5 - 5 >= 3

10 - 5 >= 3

5 >= 3

true, great ! so, e.g. x = 5 is also a valid solution.

what else ?

let's simplify the inequality

2x - 5 >= 3

2x >= 8

x >= 4

so, really every value of x that is greater or equal to 4 is a valid solution for the inequality.

B

-2x - 5 = 3

yes, the solution (the ONLY solution, actually) is x = -4. no other value of x allows the scale to be balanced.

-2x - 5 >= 3

well, since it is a ">=" sign, we can be lazy and treat it like the equation above, and x = -4 is therefore a valid solution for the inequality too.

but so is every other value of x that makes the left side "heavier". what about e.g. -5 ?

-2×-5 - 5 >= 3

remember, -×- = +

10 - 5 >= 3

5 >= 3

true, great ! so, e.g. x = -5 is also a valid solution.

what else ?

let's simplify the inequality

-2x - 5 >= 3

-2x >= 8

x <= -4

a multiplication or division by a negative value flips the inequality sign, because such an operation makes a light weight heavy and a heavy weight light.

so, really every value of x that is less or equal to -4 is a valid solution for the inequality.

What are the two ways you can find the distance between points (X1,Y1) and (x2,y2) in the coordinate
igomit [66]

The first (and most typical) way to find distance of two points is by using the distance formula.

distance=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2  }

One alternative is the Manhattan metric, also called the taxicab metric. This option is much more complicated, and rarely used in high school math. d(x,y)=∑i|xi-yi|
