A number x is decreased by 40% then increased by 25% what is the final result In terms of x ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let your number be X. To increase X by 40% we can multiply it by 1.4, let's call this new number Y.

So Y = X * 1.4

Now to decrease Y by 40% we can multiply it by 1 - .4 = .6. Lets call this new number C.

So C = Y *.6 = (X * 1.4) * .6 = X * (1.4 * .6) = X * .84.

Therefore, C = .84 * X.

So we can see C is 84% of X, or 16% less than X.

Thus, if you increase a number by 40% then decrease it by 40%, the net percentage is -16% .

      Final result in terms of 'x' will be → 0.75x

Conversion of verbal statement to algebraic expression:    Select the variables given in the verbal statement first.    Form the algebraic expression as per verbal statement given in the question.

Let the number = x

As per first statement → "A number 'x' is decreased by 40%"

Algebraic expression for the statement → (x - 40% of x)

                                                                  → (x - 0.4x)

                                                                  → 0.6x

Second statement → "Then increased by 25%"

Algebraic expression for the statement → (0.6x + 25% of 0.6x)

                                                                  → [tex](0.6x+\frac{25}{100}\times 0.6x)[/tex]

                                                                  → [tex](0.6x+0.15x)[/tex]

                                                                  → [tex]0.75x[/tex]

           Therefore, final result in terms of x will be (0.75x).

Question 2
64 is 40% of what number?
А
128
B
256
160
D
26

Answers

C: 160 is the correct answer

Answer:

answer is 160

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 40 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 100% equals 40, so we can write it down as 100%=40.

4. We know, that x% equals 64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=40

2) x%=64

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=40/64

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64 is what percent of 40

100%/x%=40/64

(100/x)*x=(40/64)*x    

100=0.625*x

100/0.625=x

160=x

x=160

now we have:

64 is 40% 160

Step-by-step explanation:

I have tried it a few times and there seems to be no solution. x can't be solved for.

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3(2x - 1) + 5 = 6(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6x - 3 + 5 = 6x + 6 , that is

6x + 2 = 6x + 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

6x = 6x + 4 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

0 = 4 ← not possible

This indicates the equation has no solution

Ms. Lady works-out with Ms. Beetle; her average crawling time has increased to 4 feet per minute, while Ms. Beetle, who is used to eating Hot Cheetos and watching TV, averages 2.5 feet per minute. While at Senn's Elm Tree-house, the three decide to experiment with linear equations. The objective is to end up at the Rose Bush at the same time. Senn still averages 5 feet per minute. How much of a head start does he need to give each of his friends in order for their function rules to intersect at 92 feet (the rose bush). What is the equation for each bug which makes their experiment successful? Create a table and graph representing the situation.

Answers

Answer:

Senn needs to give Ms. Lady 4.6 minutes  head start

Senn needs to give Ms. Beetle 18.4 minutes  head start

The equation for each bug are;

For Senn, the equation for the experiment is 5 × t₁ = 92 feet

For Ms. Lady, the equation for the experiment is 4 × (t₁ + 4.6) = 92 feet

For Ms. Beetle , the equation for the experiment is 4 × (t₁ + 18.4) = 92 feet

Please find attached the required graph and table of values

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The average crawling time of Ms. Lady = 4 feet per minute

The average crawling time of Ms. Beetle = 2.5 feet per minute

The average crawling time of Senn = 5 feet per minute

The distance to the rose bush = 92 feet

Therefore, we have;

The time, t, duration for Senn to arrive at the Rose bush is given by the following relation,

Time, t = Distance, d/(Speed, s)

Given that the speed of the bugs is equal to their average crawling time, we have

For Senn

Time, t = 92/(5 ft/Min) = 18.4 minutes

For, Ms. Lady

Time, t = 92/(4 ft/Min) = 23 minutes

For, Ms. Beetle

t = 92/(2.5 ft/Min) = 36.8 minutes

Therefore;

Senn needs to give Ms. Lady 23 - 18.4 = 4.6 minutes head start

Similarly, Senn needs to give Ms. Beetle 36.8 - 18.4 = 18.4 minutes  head start

The equation for each bug are therefore;

For Senn, the equation for the experiment is given as follows ;

5 × t₁ = 92 feet

For Ms. Lady, the equation for the experiment is given as follows;

4 × (t₁ + 4.6) = 92 feet

For Ms. Beetle , the equation for the experiment is given as follows;

4 × (t₁ + 18.4) = 92 feet.

Answers

Answer:

b. 65

a. The notation f(-2) means that we want to evaluate the value of the equation when x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The notation f(-2) means that we want to evaluate the value of the equation when x = -2

B. We will simply substitute the value of 2 for x

f(x) = 6(8-x) + 5

f(-2) = 6(8 - (-2)) + 5

f(-2) = 6(8 + 2) + 5

f(-2) = 6(10) + 5 = 60 + 5 = 65

Three boys cut out hundredths decimal models. Luke shades three fourths of one model. Owen shades four small squares of one model. Jacob shades two full models and nine tenths of another model. What decimal represents the amount each boy shades?

Answers

Answer:

Luke = 0.75

Owen = 0.04

Jacob = 2.9

Step-by-step explanation:

A model = 100 small squares

100 small squares = 1

Luke shades three fourths of one model.

Luke = 3/4 of 1 model

= 3/4 × 1

= 0.75

Owen shades four small squares of one model.

Owen = 4/100

= 0.04

Jacob shades two full models and nine tenths of another model

Jacob = 2 + 9/10

= 2 + 0.9

= 2.9

Luke = 0.75

Owen = 0.04

Jacob = 2.9

decreases by 2.

y

o

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line passing through a point (x', y') and slope 'm' is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Since x-value increases by 3,

Δx = 3

And y-value decreases by 2,

Δy = -2

Therefore, slope = [tex]\frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}[/tex]

Slope = [tex]-\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Equation of the line passing through (-2, 5) and slope = [tex]-\frac{2}{3}[/tex] will be,

y - 5 = [tex]-\frac{2}{3}(x+2)[/tex]

y = [tex]-\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{4}{3}+5[/tex]

y = [tex]-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{11}{3}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{1}{3}(-2x+11)[/tex]

Then, answer the question(s).(1) Frank Lloyd Wright considered himself one of the greatest architects of all time. Not everyone agrees with this assessment. However, most people recognize his great influence on modern American architecture.(2) Born in Wisconsin in 1867, Wright grew up in a family that often had trouble making ends meet. He attended the University of Wisconsin but left early for Chicago, where the Great Fire of 1871 created many opportunities in the building trade. After working for several firms, he eventually landed a job at the company in which Louis Sullivan, a famous pioneer of modern architecture, was a partner. Wright remained there for several years, often quarreling with colleagues, before proceeding to establish his own architecture firm where he could experiment with his own ideas and style.(3) Wright's "Prairie style" is very modern, and his buildings often suggest the wide expanse of the American plains. These projects inspired other architects to think of space in a new way. They began to design rooms in a building not as separate spaces but as a flowing whole.(4) Although his "Prairie style" is considered his best, some of Wright's more famous designs show other influences. The Guggenheim Museum in New York City, for example, features a large spiral that contrasts with its urban surroundings. Another of Wright's buildings, Fallingwater in rural Pennsylvania, is built over a waterfall and blends seamlessly into its wooded, natural environment.The following question has two parts. Answer Part A first, and then Part B.Part AWhich statement best expresses the main idea of the passage? A. Frank Lloyd Wright was an innovative and influential modern American architect. B.
