Answer:

The cost before the increase is £250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that after 30% increases, the cost of the ring is £325 so we can assume that 130% is £325. Now, we have to form an expression in term of x where x represents the original cost :

\frac{130}{100}  \times x = 325

Next, we have to solve it :

x = 325 \div  \frac{130}{100}

x = 325 \times  \frac{100}{130}

x = 250

Answer:

227.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the number that is increased by 30% to get to 325.  

100-30 = 70.

In other words, what number is 70% of 325.

325 x .70 = 227.5

The original price of the ring was 227.5.

Check your work, 227.5 = 70% of X

227.5  / .70  = 325

We are given that:
Tammy used 12 different colors of sequins
Tammy used 15 sequin of each color.

Therefore, to get the total number of sequins that she used, we will multiply the number of colors by the number of sequins of each color as follows:
Total number of sequins = 12*15 = 180 sequins

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given situation, The r-value associated with the ordered pairs for the linear function is very nearest to zero which does not results in adequate presentation of the outcome.

A quadratic model could properly comprise of a combination of data, as the set of data has a turning point.

This result in data rises and falls which represents the graph of quadratic's graph

A mouse traveled a total distance of 3/24 of a mile in a maze over the past three hours the mouse travel the same distance each
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Total distance mouse traveled in 3 hours = \frac{3}{24} of a mile

The mouse traveled the same distance in each hour. So in order to find the distance covered in 1 hour we have to divide the distance covered in 3 hours by 3. This will give us the distance that the mouse traveled in one hour.

So, the distance traveled in one hour will be = \frac{3}{24} \div 3 = \frac{3}{24} \times \frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{24} of a mile

The error which Matt made was that he divided only the denominator of the expression by 3, this probably was a calculation error.

Correct conclusion will be: Mouse travel 1/24 of a mile each hour

Which of the following is a key property of the quadratic parent function?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic parent function is y=x^2  which means the vertex is the origin because if you input 0 into the function you will get an output of zero. (0,0) is the origin which is where the graph intersect.
