By what percent will a fraction increase if its numerator is decreased by 30%

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nadya [2.5K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = numerator

Let y = denominator

\implies \dfrac{x}{y}

Decreased by 30% = 100% - 30% = 70% = 70/100 = 0.7

Decreased by 50% = 100% - 50% = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5

\implies \dfrac{0.7x}{0.5y}

\implies \dfrac{0.7}{0.5}=1.4

\implies 1.4 \ \dfrac{x}{y}

1.4 as a percentage = 1.4 x 100 = 140%

Therefore, the percentage increase is 140 - 100 = 40%

The hyperbolic orbit of a comet is represented on a coordinate plane with center at (0, 4). One branch has a vertex at (0, 10) a
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Remember that

If the given coordinates of the vertices and foci have the form (0,10) and (0,14)

then

the transverse axis is the y-axis

so

the equation is of the form

(y-k)^2/a^2-(x-h)^2/b^2=1

In this problem

center (h,k) is equal to (0,4)

(0,a-k)) is equal to (0,10)

a=10-4=6

(0,c-k) is equal to (0,14)

c=14-4=10

Find out the value of b

b^2=c^2-a^2

b^2=10^2-6^2

b^2=64

therefore

the equation is equal to

<h2>(y-4)^2/36-x^2/64=1</h2><h2>the answer is option A</h2>
