Answer:

The percent change is 87.5%. (You're one chonky boi lol)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent change, calculate the difference between the new weight and the old weight and divide that value by the old weight and multiply by 100% to find the percent change. In this case, the equation would be \frac{225-120}{120} * 100% = \frac{105}{120} * 100% = 0.875 * 100% = 87.5%, so the correct answer is a percent change of 87.5%.

Answer:

53\frac{1}{3} %

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{120}{225} =\frac{y}{100}

225 × y = 120 × 100

225y = 12000

225y ÷ 225 = 12000 ÷ 225

y=53\frac{1}{3}

The isosceles triangles below are similar.

Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.

b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.

c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.

EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.

Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.

HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.

d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.

Suppose you bought D DVD's and B Books. If each DVD cost $14.95 and each book you bought off the 'specials' table cost $6.95, wr
Doss [256]

Answer:

14.95D + 6.95B

Step-by-step explanation:

Well a simple expression would make D the amount of DVD's you bought and B the amount of Books purchased.

In simple cases the prices don't change depending on that amount so you can multiply them by making it 14.95D and 6.95B.

Making the expression 14.95D + 6.95B.
