Answer:
The original number was 54.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a number is increased by 2.8%, then it is 102.8% of it's original number.
In mathematics, "of" in virtually all cases means "multiplied by".
Therefore, we do the opposite:
1. Convert to a decimal.
102.8% = 1.028
2. Divide by the decimal.

3. Round it to the nearest tenth.
54.47 rounds to 54.5.

Answer:
Th Range is [0, -∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2 - x
w(x) = x - 2
We want to find the range of (f * w)(x).
First, we need to find (f * w)(x), which is the multiplication of the function f(x) and the function w(x). Lets use algebra to find (f * w)(x):

This is a quadratic function (U shaped), or a parabola. The graph is attached.
The range is the set of y-values for which the function is defined.
We see from the graph that the parabola is upside down and the highest value is y = 0 and lowest goes towards negative infinity. So the range is from 0 to negative infinity. Or,
0 < y < ∞
In interval notation, that would be:
[0, -∞)
Answer:
Roughly 2.11 or 19/9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
76 inches divided by 12 equals 6.33 feet
6.33 feet divided by 3 equals 2.11 yards.
