Mr. pope lost 10 pounds in one month. At the end of the month, he weighed 240 pounds. By what percentage did Mr. Pope decrease he weight?
a. (4%)
b. (7%)
c.(10)
d.(15%)

Answers

Answer 1
The answer for this question would be a which is 4% and hopefully you get it right
Answer 2

Mr. Pope decreased his weight by 4 percent.

What is percentage?

A percentage is a portion of a whole thing written as a number between 0 and 100 instead of fraction.

Given that, Mr. pope lost 10 pounds in one month. At the end of the month, he weighed 240 pounds.

we need to find the percentage of decrease of his weight,

So, basically we will use here the concept of percentage change,

Formula = final amount - initial amount / initial amount x 100

Since, he lost 10 pounds and has 240 pounds so, initially he weighted = 240 + 10 = 250 pounds

So, percentage decreased = -10 / 250 x 100 = -4% [minus is the sign for decrease]

Hence, Mr. Pope decreased his weight by 4 percent.

Answers

Answer:

solution given:

y=3(19)-5=57-5=52

y=2(19)+14=2×19+14=38+14=52

:.

y=52

Answer:

y = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of operation says we must multiply before you subtract or add.

So 3 * 19 = 57 then subtract 5 you get 52.

Next 2 * 19 = 38  then 38 + 14 = 52

You save $1400 from a summer job. You decide to put it into an account that earns simple annual interest. After 9 months, your balance is $1421. Find the annual interest rate.

Answers

Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate annual interest amount first:

                annual interest x 9/12=21

                Annual interest =21x12/9

                 annual interest amount=$28

calculate annual interest rate

                1400 x interest rate = annual interest

               $1400 x interest rate = $28

                interest rate =$28/1400

                interest rate=.02 or 2%

Harper is working two summer jobs, making $19 per hour lifeguarding and making $8 per hour walking dogs. In a given week, she can work at most 7 total hours and must earn a minimum of $80. If x x represents the number of hours lifeguarding and y y represents the number of hours walking dogs, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answers

Answer:

We know that:

She makes $19 per hour of lifeguarding.

She makes $8 per hour walking dogs.

She can work at most 7 hours per week.

She must earn a minimum of $80 per week.

If x represents the number of hours lifeguarding and y represents the number of hours walking dogs, the inequalities will be:

x + y ≥ 7 hours.

(this says that she can work at most 7 hours per week)

x*$19 + y*$8 ≥ $80

(this says that she can earn a minimum of $80)

Then the system of inequalities is:

x + y ≥ 7 hours.

x*$19 + y*$8 ≥ $80

To graph these two we can write them as lines in standard form and simply graph both inequalities, the solution of the system will be the intersection between the solutions of each inequality.

Here we also should add the inequalities:

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

So we only look at the first quadrant.

The graph can be seen in the image below: (the dark blue is the solution region for the first inequality, the light blue one is the solution region for the second inequality)

 

One possible solution can be:

x = 4 and y = 1

or

x = 4 and y = 2

and there are a lot of other possible solutions.

Each of them uses both coupons toward the cost of the repair. One coupon is for $25 off the repair cost and the other coupon is for 20% off the repair cost. Michelle and Natasha use their coupons in a different order, as shown below.

Michelle uses the 20% off the repair cost coupon first. She then uses the $25 off the repair cost coupon on the remaining balance.

Natasha uses the $25 off the repair cost coupon first. She then uses the 20% off the repair cost coupon on the remaining balance.

Observa las siguientes imágenes formadas por círculos:

Figura 1 (un circulo) Figura 2 (5 círculos)

-¿Cuántos círculos tendrá la Imagen 10?
-¿Cuántos círculos más tendrá la imagen 12 respecto de la imagen 7? ¿Puedes saberlo sin necesidad de encontrar la cantidad de círculos de cada imagen? ¿Cómo?

Answers

1.En 10 figuras habrá 37 puntos si te fijas en las imágenes lo único que hace es agregar 4 puntos a cada uno como la tercera imagen tiene 9 puntos hize 9 + 7x 4= 37
2.la imagen 12 tendrá 45 puntos y la 7 tendrá 25 puntos
La diferencia de puntos entre la figura 7 y 12 serán seran 20 puntos
-si lo pude saber sin la necesidad de encontrar la cantidad de los círculos de las imágenes porque cada ves vamos agregando 4 puntos

Veremos que en la imagen 10 hay 37 circulos, y la diferencia entre las imagenes 12 y 7 es de 20 circulos.

¿Como encontrar el patrón?

Primero, debemos contar la cantidad de circulos que tenemos en las imagenes mostradas.

En la primera, tenemos 1 circulo.En la segunda, hay 5 circulos.En la tercera, hay 9 circulos.En la cuarta, hay 13 circulos.

Entonces podemos ver que en cada imagen se agregan 4 circulos, es decir tenemos una secuencia aritmetica, de tal forma que la imagen número N tendremos:

[tex]C_N = 1 + (N - 1)*4[/tex]

Entonces, cuantos circulos hay en la imagen 10? para ver eso reemplazamos N por 10.

[tex]C_{10} = 1 + (10 - 1)*4 = 37[/tex]

¿Cuántos círculos más tendrá la imagen 12 respecto de la imagen 7?

Para ver esto calculamos:

[tex]C_12 - C_7 = (1 + (12 - 1)*4) - (1 + (7 - 1)*4) = 11*4 - 6*4 = 20[/tex]

Es decir, la image 12 tiene 20 circulos más que la imagen 7.

if y=27 when x= 8 find y when x =11

Answers

Answer:

37 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem probably assumes direct variation

y=kx

IF so, then plug in the values and solve for k

27=k(8)

k = 27/8

y= (27/8)x.  Now let x = 11

y = (27/8)11 = 27(11)/8 = 37.125 = 37 1/8

y = 37 1/8

the problem is making some assumption about the relation between x and y.  The simplest assumption that's likely is direct variation,  that x and y are linearly related.  The graph is a straight line through the origin with slope = 27/8
