What number when increased by 15% becomes 299 Please help willl mark brainest!

Answers

Answer 1

Let's make an equation with the information given.

A 15% increase in a number means that the number was multiplied by 1.15.

[tex]1.15x=299[/tex]

[tex]x=260[/tex]

Hope this helps.

頑張って!

Answer 2

Answer:

260

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number x.

When x is increased by 15% it is equal to 299. The number itself is 100%, so we should multiply x by 115%. Convert 115% to a decimal. Divide 115 by 100 or move the decimal place two spots to the right.

115/100= 1.15                                 or                        115.0 --> 11.5 --> 1.15

When x and 1.15 are multiplied they should equal 229. Set up an equation.

1.15x=229

We want to solve for x. Therefore, we must isolate x on one side of the equation. x is being multiplied by 1.15 The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 1.15

1.15x/1.15=229/1.15

x=229/1.15

x=260

When 260 is increased by 15% the result is 299.

What is the x-coordinate of the point plotted below?

Answers

Answer:

The x coordinate is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the point is on 2 of the x-axis. The exact coordinates of that point is (2,0)

The x-coordinate of the point plotted is (2, 0)

What is Coordinate Geometry?

Coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to uniquely determine the position of the points or other geometric elements on a manifold such as Euclidean space.

We need to find the x-coordinate of the point plotted  in the given graph.

Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.

The x value of the point (x, y) is known as the abscissa. It represents the distance of the point from the origin or along the horizontal x-axis.

The point is at 2 on x axis and y value will be zero

(2, 0) is the x coordinate of the given point

Hence,  the x-coordinate of the point plotted is (2, 0)

x/10 + y/1000 = 1

Can you please rewrite this in slope-intercept form


Please help !!!

Answers

Answer: See below

Explanation:

Slope-int form: y = mx + b

x/10 + y/1000 = 1
y/1000 = -x/10 + 1
y = 1000(-x/10 + 1)
y = -100x + 1000

Therefore, y = -100x + 1000

Answer:  

Slope-int form: y = mx + b

x/10 + y/1000 = 1

y/1000 = -x/10 + 1

y = 1000(-x/10 + 1)

y = -100x + 1000

[tex] \sqrt{64} = 8 \\ \sqrt{ {m}^{4} } = {m}^{2} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

Answers

Answer: The greatest number of cards you can place each packet = 3

There would be 7 packets of baseball cards and 4 packets of football cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Number of baseball cards =21

Number of  football cards = 12

Each packet will have the same number of cards.

Each packet will have the cards for only one sport.

Then, the greatest number of cards you can place each packet  = GCD (21,12) i.e. greatest common divisor of 21 and 12

Since 21 = 3 x 7 and 12 = 2 x2 x3

so, GCD(21, 12)=3

So, the greatest number of cards you can place each packet = 3

Number packets of baseball cards  = [tex]\dfrac{21}{3}=7[/tex]

Number packets of football cards = [tex]\dfrac{12}{3}=4[/tex]

So, there would be 7 packets of baseball cards and 4 packets of football cards.
