Answer:

24 increased by 6% = 25.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Introduction. Percent, p%

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

6% = 6/100 = 6 ÷ 100 = 0.06.

100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.

ncrease the number by 6% of its value.

Percentage increase = 6% × 24

New value = 24 + Percentage increase

Calculate the New Value

New value =

24 + Percentage increase =

24 + (6% × 24) =

24 + 6% × 24 =

(1 + 6%) × 24 =

(100% + 6%) × 24 =

106% × 24 =

106 ÷ 100 × 24 =

106 × 24 ÷ 100 =

2,544 ÷ 100 =

25.44

Calculate absolute change (actual difference)

Absolute change (actual difference) =

New value - 24 =

25.44 - 24 =

1.44

Proof.

Calculate percentage increase...

... And see if we get as a result

the absolute change (actual difference).

Percentage increase =

6% × 24 =

6 ÷ 100 × 24 =

6 × 24 ÷ 100 =

144 ÷ 100 =

1.44

So we have proven that the calculations are correct.

For positive numbers

Absolute change (actual difference) =

Percentage increase

Answer:

24 increased by 6% = 25.44

Absolute change (actual difference):

25.44 - 24 = 1.44

Answer:

24,06

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 24 + 6 \%$

$\sf = 24 + \frac{6}{100}$

$= \sf \frac{2400}{100} + \frac{6}{100}$

$\sf = \frac{2406}{100}$

$\sf 24, 06$

Find the polynomial of minimum degree, with real coefficients, zeros at

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{p(x)=4x^3-20x^2+4x+300}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{If}\ x=4\pm3i\ \text{and}\ x=-3\ \text{are the zeros of a polynomial, then it has a form:}\\\\p(x)=\bigg(x-(4-3i)\bigg)\bigg(x-(4+3i)\bigg)\bigg(x-(-3)\bigg)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=(x-4+3i)(x-4-3i)(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=\underbrace{\bigg((x-4)+3i\bigg)\bigg((x-4)-3i\bigg)}_{\text{use}\ (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2}(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=\bigg((x-4)^2-(3i)^2\bigg)(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$p(x)=(x^2-2(x)(4)+4^2-3^2i^2)(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\qquad\text{use}\ i^2=-1\\\\p(x)=(x^2-8x+16-9(-1))(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=(x^2-8x+16+9)(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=(x^2-8x+25)(x+3)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\qquad\text{use FOIL}:\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\p(x)=\bigg((x^2)(x)+(x^2)(3)+(-8x)(x)+(-8x)(3)+(25)(x)+(25)(3)\bigg)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\p(x)=(x^3+3x^2-8x^2-24x+25x+75)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\p(x)=(x^3-5x^2+x+75)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)$

$\text{The y-intercept is at 300}.\\\\\text{For}\ w(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+a_{n-2}x^{n-2}+...+a_1x+a_0\\\\\text{y-intercept is}\ a_0\\\\\text{Therefore for}\ p(x)=(x^3-5x^2+x+75)\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\\text{y-intercet is}\ 75\bigg(r(x)\bigg)\\\\75\bigg(r(x)\bigg)=300\qquad\text{divide both sides by 75}\\\\r(x)=4\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\p(x)=(x^3-5x^2+x+75)(4)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\p(x)=(x^3)(4)+(-5x^2)(4)+(x)(4)+(75)(4)\\\\p(x)=4x^3-20x^2+4x+300$

What are the coordinates for (6,5) and hypotenuse 3.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2 a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse.

Sally has Christmas lights the roof is 16 feet high the ladder is 20 ft long how far away is letter from wall

lesantik [10]

It should be 12 ft away from the wall. Not 4 ft. You do not just subtract the difference because as you pull it away from the wall, the ladder is mostly moving horizontally with only a small vertical change.

You can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the answer. Think of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the wall and the ground as the legs.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + b^2 = 20^2

b^2 = 20^2 - 16^2

b^2 = 144

b = 12 ft
