The price of an item has risen to $136 today. Yesterday it was $80. Find the percentage increase.

Answers

Answer 1

well, the numeric difference will be 136 - 80 = 56, now, if we take 80 (original price) to be the 100%, what is 56 (the increase) in percentage off of it?

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 80&100\\ 56&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{80}{56}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{10}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 10x=700\implies x = \cfrac{700}{10}\implies x = \stackrel{\%}{70}[/tex]

The stock in Company A has increased 7% since last year and the stock in Company B has increased 1%. What was the total percentage increase in the investor's stock account? Round your answer to the nearest tenth (if necessary). pls asap

Answers

Answer:

4.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

6600 * 107/100 = 66*107 = 7062.

3500 * 101/100 = 35x101 = 3535

7062+3535=10597. Original worth: 10100

10597-10100 = 497

497/10100 = 0.0492079208, or 4.92%, rounds to 4.9%

The length of a rectangle is times the width. If the perimeter is 32 inches, what is the width of the rectangle

Answers

Let width be “w", length = “l" and perimeter = p

Then l = 3w-4

Perimeter = 2(w+l)

p = 2(w+3w-4) = 2w+6w-8 = 8w-8

Perimeter is 32…

8w-8 = 32

8w = 32+8

8w = 40

w = 5

l = (3×5)-4 = 11

Check… p = 2(5+11) = 2 × 16 = 32

Ans = length is 11

[tex]g(x)=x+8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Translating a function up is very simple, all you need to do here is add 8.

If you want to think of it logically,

[tex]f(x)=x[/tex]

the whole right side of the function here can be our output. If x is 8, then the output, or height, is also 8. if you wanted to translate that up to 10, you'd simply need to add 2 to it, meaning [tex]x+2[/tex]. Then, at any given point on the function, it'd be 2 higher than it would be otherwise.

A dairy needs 364 gallons of milk containing 6% butterfat. How many gallons each of milk containing 7% butterfat and milk containing 3% butterfat must be used to obtain the desired 364 gallons?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be gallons of 7%

Let y be gallons of 3%

364 = x + y

y = 364 - x

364(0.06) = x(0.07) + y(0.03)

364(6) = x(7) + y(3)

364(6) = 7x + 3y

364(6) = 7x + 3(364 - x)

364(6 - 3) = 7x - 3x

364(3) = 4x

x = 273

y = 364 - 273 = 91

273 gallons of 7%

91    gallons of 3%

Answer:  The art club president need to buy 14 bottles of paint for the project.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that each of the 14 students in the art club needs 4 ounces of paint for a project. The art store sells paint only in 8-ounce bottles.

We are to find the number of bottles of paint that the art club president need to buy for the project.

We will be using the unitary method to solve the given problem.

Number of bottles filled by 8 ounces of paint = 1.

So, the number of bottles filled by 1 ounce of paint is

So, the number of bottles filled by 4 ounces of paint will be

Now, number of bottles of paint needed by 1 student  

Therefore, the number of bottles of paint needed by 14 students will be

Thus, the art club president need to buy 14 bottles of paint for the project.

The answer is C-7!!!

B. The median decreases by 1.
C. The median does not change.
D. The median increases by 1.

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Median- The average

The average can be found by adding the numbers together and dividing by the amount of numbers, in this case that would be 7. 10+2+8+9+5+2+6=42. 42÷7= 6. So the average before 12 is 6. 42+12 is the total adding that 12 and would equal 54. 54÷8=6.75, averaging out to 7. The average increased by about 1. So, the answer is D.

Answer: D. The median increases by 1.

Answers

Answer: Yes (2,-1) is the solution for those systems.

becausee...

1. 3(2) - (-1) = 7

     6 + 1 = 7

     7 = 7

2. 2(2) + 3(-1) = 1

      4 - 3 = 1

      1 = 1

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Yes the point (2,-1) is a solution of the system: 3x - y = 7 2x + 3y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,-1) = x = 2, y = -1

Now lets put these values in the given expressions

3x - y = 7

3 × 2 - (-1)

6 + 1

= 7 THIS EQUATION IS THE SOLUTION

2x + 3y = 1

2 × 2 + 3 × (-1)

4 - 3

= 1 THIS EQUATION IS THE SOLUTION
