Answer:
<u>After a 75% increase, it would become</u>
x + 75%x = x + 0.75x = x(1 + 0.75) = 1.75x
<u>After a 50% decrease, it would become</u>
1.75x - 50%(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.5(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.875x = 0.875x = 
Because
is less than x, the new amount would be less than the original.
Answer:
A and C are proportional relationships.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that a "proportional relationship" has no constant term. Thus, we eliminate Answers B and D immediately.
Answer A represents a proportional relationship: y varies directly with the square of x.
Answer C also represents a proportional relationship: y varies directly with x.
Answer:
it's B
Step-by-step explanation:
because I did this
6 inches
6 1/14 inches
Since area is defined as length multiplied by width, this is a simple matter of division. I suspect this problem is more a matter of handling fractions, so to make things easier, convert the fractions to improper fractions in order to do the math, then convert to proper fractions after you've gotten the result. Since the area of each rectangle is 12 3/4, multiply 12 by 4 and then add 3 to get 51/4 as the area. Doing the same for the values 2 1/8 and 2 1/10 gives sizes of 17/8 and 21/10 for the widths respectively. So
51/4 / 17/8 = 51/4 * 8/17 = 408/68 = 6/1 = 6
51/4 / 21/10 = 51/4 * 10/21 = 510/84 = 85/14 = 6 1/14
