If the price of beef rose from $8.72 per pound to $9.43 per pound, what is the percent of increase? Round to the nearest percent

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

initial price = $8.72 per pound

final price=  $9.43 per pound

Required

the % increase

Step two:

% increase= (final-initial)/initial*100

substituting we have

[tex]percent- increase= (9.43-8.72)/8.72*100\\\\percent- increase= 0.71/8.72*100\\\\percent- increase= 0.081*100\\\\percent- increase= 8.1%[/tex]

In isosceles triangle ABC the segment BD with D a point on AC is the median to the base AC. Find BD if the perimeter of ABC is 50m and the perimeter of ABD is 40m

Answers

Given:

In isosceles triangle ABC, consider AB=BC and the segment BD with D a point on AC is the median to the base AC.

Perimeter of ABC is 50m and the perimeter of ABD is 40m.

To find:

The length of BD.

Solution:

In isosceles triangle ABC the segment BD with D a point on AC is the median to the base AC.

[tex]AB=BC[/tex]           ...(i)

[tex]AD=CD[/tex]

[tex]AC=2AD[/tex]         ...(ii)

Perimeter of ABC is 50m.

[tex]AB+BC+AC=50[/tex]

[tex]AB+AB+2AD=50[/tex]      [Using (i) and (ii)]

[tex]2AB+2AD=50[/tex]

[tex]2(AB+AD)=50[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]AB+AD=25[/tex]        ...(iii)

Now, perimeter of ABD is 40m.

[tex]AB+AD+BD=40[/tex]

[tex]25+BD=40[/tex]         [Using (iii)]

[tex]BD=40-25[/tex]

[tex]BD=15[/tex]

Therefore, the length of BD is 15m.

Answer:

After two years, there will be a total of $1,375 paid and $125 paid in interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, 5 x 2 = 10, first we should find 10% of $1,250.

1,250 x 0.10 = 125

$1,250 + $125 = $1375

Therefore, after two years, there will be a total of $1,375 paid and $125 paid in interest.

F is inversely proportional to d 2 . When F = 8 , d = 6 Work out d (positive value rounded to 2 DP) when F = 7

Answers

Answer:

d ≈ 6.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that F is inversely proportional to d² then the equation relating them is

F = [tex]\frac{k}{d^2}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition when F = 8, d = 6 , then

8 = [tex]\frac{k}{6^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{k}{36}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 36 )

288 = k

F = [tex]\frac{288}{d^2}[/tex] ← equation of proportion

When F = 7 , then

7 = [tex]\frac{288}{d^2}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by d² )

d² × 7 = 288 ( divide both sides by 7 )

d² = [tex]\frac{288}{7}[/tex] ( take the square root of both sides )

d = ± [tex]\sqrt{\frac{288}{7} }[/tex] ≈ ± 6.41

The positive value of d is 6.41 ( to 2 dec. places )

Answer:

when F = 7, d = 6.41

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when 'y' varies inversely with 'x', we get the equation

y ∝ 1/x

y = k/x

where 'k' is called the constant of proportionality

Given that F is inversely proportional to d.

F ∝ 1/d

F = k /d²

When F = 8, d = 6, we need to find k

k = Fd²

k = 8×(6)²=288

Now, we need to find d when F = 7

so substitute k = 288, F = 7 in the equation

F = k /d²

d² = k/F

d² = 288/7

[tex]\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{\frac{288}{7}},\:d=-\sqrt{\frac{288}{7}}[/tex]

but, we need to take the positive value of d, so

[tex]d=\sqrt{\frac{288}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]d=6.41[/tex]

Therefore,

when F = 7, d = 6.41

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let’s use this equation y = mx + b

Sapphire and Abe are shelving books at a public library. Sapphire shelves 12 books at a time, whereas Abe shelves 18 at a time. If they end up shelving the same number of books, what is the smallest number of books each could have shelved.

Answers

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Sapphire shelves 12 books at a time, whereas Abe shelves 18 at a time.

If they end up shelving the same number of books, what is the smallest number of books each could have shelved = LCM (12,18)

12 = 2 x 2 x 3

18 = 2 x 3 x 3

LCM (12, 18) = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 36

The area of the September is 336cm is all this model rectangles are exactly the same what is the perimeter of rectangle if the length of one rectangle is 12 CM

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter is 80cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle's area is calculated by multiplying the length by the width. If we are given the area of the rectangle and the length then we would simply need to solve for the width of the rectangle using the area formula we just mentioned...

A = l * w

336[tex]cm^{2}[/tex] = 12cm * w  ... divide both sides by 12cm

28cm = w

Now we can see that the width of this rectangle is 28cm. To find the perimeter we need to add all four sides together, since we know that a rectangle's opposite sides are the same then we add the length and the width twice to calculate the perimeter (P)

P = 12cm + 12cm + 28cm + 28cm

P = 80cm
