Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
percent increase = increase divided by original number x 100
increase is the difference between the two numbers...
new number - original number.....4000 - 2800 = 1200
percent increase = (1200 / 2800) x 100
= 0.42857 (round to .4286) x 100
= 42.86 %.....if you need it rounded to the nearest percent, it would be 43% increase
Answer:
$162
Step-by-step explanation:
Discount = percentage discount ÷ 100 × original cost
Discount =
× $405 = $162
Let's start by assuming Armando's house is between Joey's and the park.
Let

be the distance Joey walked to Armando's house.
<span>The park is 9/10 mile from Joey's home. Joey leaves home and walks to Armando's home. Then Joey and Armando walk 3/5 mile to the park.
</span>


That's probably the answer they're looking for. But what if the park is between Joey and Armando's houses or Joey is between the park and Armando? (The latter isn't really possible with the given distances.)
Let

be the distances between three collinear points like we have here. Our equation is really a few equations in one, something like

Let's get rid of the plus/minuses. Squaring,



For us, that's a quadratic equation for


I'll skip right to the solutions,


We could have gotten the 3/2 just by adding 9/10+3/5 but this was more fun.
20mps. Because velocity is the speed per unit. In this case it is going 20 m per second
