Answer:
(a) Growth
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-- current
--- rate
Solving (a): Growth or decay
The question says his followers increases each day by 24%.
Increment means growth.
<em />
<em>Hence, it is a growth problem</em>
Solving (b): Equation to represent the scenario.
Since the rate represents growth, the equation is:
Substitute: and
(x - xo)^2 + (y - yo)^2 = r^2
[x - (-3)]^2 + [y - (2)]^2 = (1.5)^2
(x+3)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 2.25
Answer: option C
Answer:
27.33333... mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Find 1/3 of 20 1/2: 1/3*41/2=41/6
That equals 6.83333...
Now add 20 1/2 and 6.83333 = 27.3333...
Therefore, 27.33333... mph
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
