Step-by-step explanation:
What is the question?
Amount of change = 5.5-3.1 = 2.4 inches
Percentage change = 2.4/3.1 ≈ 77.4% increase
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The stick has a length of 5 units
The stick is broken at two points chosen at random
First break: the probability that you get a piece that is 1 unit or longer than 1 units= 1/5.
Second break, the probability that you get a piece that is 1 unit or longer than 1 units is 1/5.
Therefore,
The total probability =probability of first break * probability of second break * original stick unit
=1/5 * 1/5 * 5
= 1/25 *5
=5/25
=1/5
The answer is 0.305. All you have to do is move the decimal place three times to the left.
First lets get 3% into decimal form.
3% is 3/100 = 0.03
Now multiply 0.03 by 47000 to get how much extra money she was going to get.
47000 * 0.03 = 1410
Now we just add
47000 + 1410 = 48410 is what she was going to make in 2012
Another way to do this is
(47000)(1+0.03) = 48410
you would use (1+0.03) which tells you she increased in pay.
