Q: A jeweler buys a ring for $85 he sells it for 135% increase what is the retail of the ring
A: 199.75 just think about the increase of 35% and add 1
You would want to multiply equation a by -5 so you can eliminate by addition
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
no because some numbers could be negative and most number lines also contain 0. whole numbers are positive, non decimal/fractional, real numbers
Answer:
y = -28 ÷ x
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard format of a inversely proportional equation goes by the format of y = k ÷ x. The question asks us to write an equation if y = 7 when x = -4 and y varies inversely with x.
So we substitute the values y = 7 and x = -4 in the equation y = k ÷ x
K = constant, we have to work this out
7 = k ÷ -4
7 × - 4 = k
k = - 4 × 7
k = -28
k = -28 So then we put this back into the original y = k ÷ x to find our final equation which is y = -28 ÷ x
Answer:
"To the nearest year, it would be about 9 years"
Step-by-step explanation:
11c)
This is compound growth problem. It goes by the formula:

Where
F is the future amount
P is the present (initial) amount
r is the rate of growth, in decimal
t is the time in years
Given,
P = 20,000
r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08
F = double of initial amount = 2 * 20,000 = 40,000
We need to find t:

To solve exponentials, we can take Natural Log (Ln) of both sides:

Using the rule shown below we can simplify and solve:

We can write:

To the nearest year, that would be about 9 years
