Answer:

Think of investments. If you were to invest $100 into a company and receive $200 dollars, then you would have made $100 in profit, which is 100% of your initial amount. So, if you were to invest $100 and receive $250 dollars in profit, then you would have made an extra $150, which is even more than your initial amount of $100. In this case, you would have made a 150% increase on your money.

Please help I’m having trouble understanding this question

Nikolay [14]

Answer: <1 = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

given that:

• <ABD = 66°

• <2 = 14° + <1 (since ''more than' means we add)

• Find <1

Since it is obvious that <ABD is a sum of <1 and <2:

⇒ <ABD = <1 + <2

now we know that <2 is 14° more than <1 and that <ABD = 66°

⇒ 66° = <1 + (14° + <1)

⇒ 66° = <1 + 14° + <1

⇒ <1 = (66° - 14°) ÷ 2

⇒ <1 = 26° ...Answer...

A regression equation that predicts the price of homes in thousands of dollars is t = 24.6 + 0.055x1 - 3.6x2, where x2 is a dumm

AveGali [126]

Answer:

a) On average, homes that are on busy streets are worth $3600 less than homes that are not on busy streets.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the same home (x1 is the same), x2 = 1 if it is on a busy street and x2 = 0 if it is not on a busy street. If x2 = 1, the value of 't' decreases by 3.6 when compared to the value of 't' for x2=0. Since 't' is given in thousands of dollars, when a home is on a busy street, its value decreases by 3.6 thousand dollars.

$t(x1, 0)= 24.6 + 0.055x1\\t(x1, 1) = 24.6 + 0.055x1 - 3.6\\t(x1, 1) = t(x1, 0) - 3.6$

Therefore, the answer is a) On average, homes that are on busy streets are worth $3600 less than homes that are not on busy streets.
