The answer is B. You didn't mention compounding, so I have to assume that this is simple interest. The formula for simple interest is
<span>Interest = principal * interest rate expressed as a decimal * time in years. </span>
<span>$126 = $450 * X * 7. Now multiply $450 * 7 years = $3,150 </span>
<span>$126 = 3,150X </span>
<span>What has been done to the X? It was multiplied by $3,150. What is the opposite of multiplication? It is division. Remember that whatever we do to one side of the equal sign we must also do to the other side of the equal sign. </span>
<span>$126 = $3,150X </span>
<span>-------____---------- </span>
<span>$3,150__$3,150 </span>
<span>Any number over itself = 1. Now we have </span>
<span>.04 = X </span>
<span>To change a decimal to a percent move the decimal place two places to the right and add a percent sign. </span>
<span>.04 = 4$. The answer is B</span>
Answer:
decrease of 38% (to nearest percent)
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent change = [ (difference between final and initial value) ÷ initial value] x 100
⇒ percent change = [(2100 - 1300) ÷ 2100] × 100 = 38% (to nearest percent)
Since you have not presented any choices wherein we can determine the best answer, I will go on and share my thoughts on how she could improve the results of her survey.
Since she just surveyed her ballet class, she should opt for surveying on other classes with other genres. This would entail reliability and validity and eliminate bias about the results.
