Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
In the graph, there is a cycle of increasing and decreasing. First, the original circle increases by 25% into the new, larger circle. Then, the circle does back to its original size. So, to solve we can assign a value to the smaller circle, increase it by 25%, and then find what percentage brings this back to the original value.
It is easiest to assign the value of 100 because it is easy to work with. So, let's say the smaller circle is 100; this increased by 25% is 125. The next step is to find what percentage of 125 brings us back to 100. There are multiple ways to do this such as guess and check or proportions/fractions. Either way, the correct percentage is 20%. If you decrease 125 by 20% you get the correct value of 100. This means that the missing number must be 20%.
This sequence seems to apply -9, +13, +6 repeatedly.
So after the 34, the -9 has to be applied. The next number would be 25.
Answer:
90 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of tickets be x
and the total amount each has be y
For Jessica
the amount is
y=10x--------1
for Laurie the amount is
Note: she has $360 already
y=360+6x-------2
to find the number of the tickets that will make them have the same amount, let us equate 1 and 2
10x=360+6x
10x-6x=360
4x=360
x=360/4
x=90
