Round to the nearest percent. The average cost of a gallon of gas in January 2014 was $3.42, and was $2.36 in December 2014. What was the percent change in the average cost of a gallon of gas in 2014? Round to the nearest percent.

Answers

Answer 1
It’d be a 31% decrease
Answer 2

The percentage change of the gas will be 45%.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to 100. It is denoted by the sign %. The percentage stands for "out of 100." Imagine any measurement or object being divided into 100 equal bits.

Given that the average cost of a gallon of gas in January 2014 was $3.42, and was $2.36 in December 2014.

The percentage change will be calculated as,

Percentage change = ( 3.42 - 2.36 ) / 2.36

Percentage change = ( 1.06 / 2.36 )

Percentage change = 0.45 x 100

Percentage change = 45%

Answers

to find a percentage of something you take the fraction and multiply it by a hundred

Step-by-step explanation:

step one

to determine what the fraction would be you just read the question:

first you have to see what they want to calculate the percentage of. In this case it's students who like traveling out of state but don't like camping.

88 students like traveling out of state and 36 of those students don't like camping so the fraction you have to use is 36/88

step two

next you multiply your fraction by 100 to calculate your percentage

36/88 ×100= 40.9%

step three

since you have to round to the nearest whole percent your answer would be 41%

Answer:

The Answer is 41%

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the statement.

If the youngest member leaves the club, the mean age of the club members would [increase/decrease/stay the same], but the median age would [increase/decrease/stay the same].

Answers

Answer:

Mean would increase

Median would stay the same

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean would increase because the lowest number would not make the mean lower

The median would stay the same because there are three numbers with the value of 48, which is the median, and if 45 is gone, it would stay the same

If the youngest member leaves the club, the mean age of the club members would increase but the median age would stay the same.

What are mean and the median?

Mean is the ratio of the sum of all values in a data set to the total number of items in the data set.

The median is the middlemost value in a given data set.

Given that, a dot plot shows the ages of the members in a club,

The mean would increase because the lowest number would not make the mean lower,

The median would stay the same because there are three numbers with the value of 48, which is the median, and if 45 is gone, it would stay the same.

Hence, If the youngest member leaves the club, the mean age of the club members would increase but the median age would stay the same.

Answer:

f the equation is in the form, ax + b = c, where x is the variable, you can solve the equation as before. First “undo” the addition and subtraction, and then “undo” the multiplication and division. Solve 3y + 2 = 11. Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation to get the term with the variable by itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

Of the two lights on Dexter Street, the probability of the lights being red is 20% for the first light and 30% for the second light. If a car is driving down Dexter Street, what is the probability that it does not get stopped at either light?

Answers

Just multiply the sum of the light

The probability that it does not get stopped at either light is 14/25.

We have given

Of the two lights on Dexter Street, the probability of the lights being red is 20% for the first light and 30% for the second light.

What is the formula for probability?

The probability of an event A is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable events that occurred in A /total number of events in a sample space

Red light for the first:

The Probability of the red light is 20 out of 100 so you would just find the difference which is 80%.

80/100

Red light for the second:

The Probability of the second red light is 30 out of 100 so you would just find the difference which is 70%.

70/100

The probability of not being stopped at either, multiply across and reduce.

[tex]80/100 * 70/100= 14/25[/tex]

Therefore, The probability that it does not get stopped at either light is 14/25.

Can yall tell me what B is? b-7/4=-2/3

Answers

Answer:

1 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

b-7/4=-2/3

First, in an equation like this, you add 7/4 to each side which will look like this:

b-7/4=-2/3

 +7/4=+7/4

We add 7/4 to each side of the equation to balance the numbers.

b=+7/4-2/3 (because the minus symbol is in front, we put that)

Before adding we have to find the least common denominator known as LCD.

We find that by first looking at the denominators or the fractions which are 4,3

4,8,\12/,16,20,24.

3,6,9,\12/,15,18,21,24.

We can also find the LCD by multiplying 3 and 4. As you can see in the list, there are 12's in each list of numbers. We use that to change our fractions.

From the number 4 we find out how many times (x) we have to add 4 to get 12. We do 12/4 which is 3. And 12/3 which is 4.

7 x 3       2 x 4

-------   -   -------

4 x 3       3 x 4

which equals 21/12-8/12. Now that we have a common denominator, we can subtract.

21                  8                    13

---        -        ---        =         -----     =    1  [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]
