The annual number of burglaries in a town rose by 50% in 2012 and fell by 10% in 2013. hence the total number of burglaries increased by 40% over the two year period.
a. by what percent has the number of burglaries actually changed in the two-year period?
b. by what percent would the crime have to decrease in the second year in order for the change over the two-year period to actually be a 40% increase?

Answers

Answer 1

The percentage change in the number of burglaries over the two-year period is 35% .

The change in burglaries over the two-year period to have  a 40% increase is 6.7%.

Let's assume that the annual number of burglaries in 2011 is 1000. After the 50% increase in 2012, the number of burglaries would be: 1000(1.50) = 1500.

The number of burglaries after the 10% reduction in 2013 would be: 1500(.90) = 1350

The change in burglaries over the two-year period = (1350 / 100) - 1 = 35%

In order to determine how much burglaries would have to reduce in order to have a 40% change in burglaries, this formula would be used

(x - 1000) / 1000 = 0.40

x - 1000 = 400

x = 1400

The change in burglaries over the two-year period to have  a 40% increase = (1400 / 1500) - 1 = 6.7%

What is the solution to the system of equations? y=−2x−64x−y=−36 (−15, 24) (−7, 8) (−5, 4) I don't know.

Answers

Answer:

Since y = −2x − 6 and 4x − y = −36, the solution would be B.) (-7, 8).

A solution to the given system of equations is [tex](\frac{100}{3}, \frac{8}{3} )[/tex]

Given the following system of equations:

[tex]y=-2x-64[/tex]  ...equation 1.

[tex]x-y=-36[/tex]   ...equation 2.

To find a solution to the given system of equations, we would use the substitution method:

First of all, we would make x the subject of formula in equation 2.

[tex]x=-36+y[/tex]  ...equation 3.

Substituting eqn. 3 into eqn. 1, we have:

[tex]y = -2(-36+y)-64\\\\y=72-2y-64\\\\y+2y=72-64\\\\3y=8\\\\y=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]

For the value of x:

This method requires you to use prime factorization. Basically you break down these numbers into factors that---when multiplied together---equals the original number. For a, you can break the number into 8*10 and they still multiply together to equal 80. But this is not prime factors because you can break them down further. You have to continue doing this until you get prime numbers. For a, you get (2^3)x(5) and for b, you get (3^3)x(2)=54

Legs ? Cm
Hypotenuse? Cm

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the side of triangle=x

hypotenuse=x+4

(x+4)^2=x^2+x^2

x^2+8x+16=2x^2

x^2-8x-16=0

x²-8x=16

x²-8x+16=16+16=32

(x-4)²=16×2=(4√2)²

x-4=±4√2

x=4±4√2

either x=4+4√2=4(1+√2)

or x=4-4√2=-4(√2-1)<0 (rejected)

leg x=4(1+√2)≈4(1+1.414)≈4×2.414≈8.828≈8.83 cm

hypotenuse≈8.83+4=12.83 cm

Is X=7 an oblique Line?

Answers

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally oblique is used to describe the relationship between 2 lines, but only 1 is given. Oblique means slanted to a degree other than a multiple of 90°, usually in reference to the other line.

x = 7 is a vertical line, and that is exactly 90°, -90°, or even 270° or -270° depending on how you look at it, so it is not oblique on its own.

Answer:

x = 7 is not an oblique line.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 7 is the standard equation for a vertical line, x = a, with an undefined slope.  Vertical lines do not have horizontal change. Hence, its line will not be oblique (or slanted).  

The equations in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), standard form (Ax + By = C), and point-slope form [y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)] will most likely represent an oblique line, as long as its slope (m) ≠ 0.  A line with a zero slope is a horizontal line (which is also not an oblique line).

Therefore, x = 7 is not an oblique line, but rather a vertical line.

The rectangle below is dilated by a scale factor of 3/2. Find the area of the dilated rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

  108 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

When the dimensions are multiplied by 3/2, they become ...

  8·3/2 = 12

  6·3/2 = 9

Then the area of the dilated figure is ...

  A = LW

  A = 12·9 = 108 . . . . square units

_____

Additional comment

If you're paying attention, you see that the original area is multiplied by the square of the scale factor.

  A = LW

  A = (8·3/2)(6·3/2) = (8·6)·(3/2)²

This is generally true for the area of scaled figures: the original area is multiplied by the square of the scale factor to get the area of the scaled figure.
