Answer:

New amount (decrease) = £17253.53

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Amount = £19064.67

Percentage = 9.5%

To find the percentage decrease;

$Percentage \; cost = \frac {9.5}{100} * 19064.67$

$Percentage \; cost = 0.095 * 19064.67$

Percentage cost = £1811.14

New amount (decrease) = Original amount - percentage cost

Substituting into the equation, we have;

New amount (decrease) = £19064.67 - £1811.14

<em>New amount (decrease) = £17253.53</em>

Leokris [45]

To answer this question, you need to makes the unit of the smartphone screen same. In this case, phone A is using decimal and phone B is using a fraction. You can use which was easier.
Let's try to use decimal. Then you need to convert phone B fraction width into decimal width. The calculation would be: 5cm + 1/3cm= 5 cm + 0.333cm= 5.333cm
From here it clear that phone B has a wider screen than phone A.

The following graph shows the consumer price index (CPI) for a fictional country from 1990 to 2000.For which of these time perio

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option B. 1990 - 1992

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have to calculate inflation rate in year 2000 from 1990, we use the formula

$inflation=\frac{C.P.I. 2000-C.P.I. 1990}{C.P.I 1990}\times 100$

which means if consumer price index is increasing year by year the inflation rate will increase.

Now we analyse our options given with the help of graph given.

A. from 1994 - 2000

Consumer price index increased from year 1994 to 1998 but decreased between 1998 to 2000.

So this option doesn't show the continuous inflation.

B. Year 1990 - 1992

We find a continuous increase in C.P.I. therefore there will be a continuous increase in inflation.

So this option is correct.

C. Year 1992 - 1996

In this gap we see deflation from year 1992 to 1994 then inflation between 1994 - 1996.

So there is ups and downs in this period showing discontinuity in inflation.

D. 1992 - 1994

There is continuous decrease in C.P.I. so continuous deflation is reported between this period.

It's not the correct option.

Answer is Option B.

15,000 blue trout were released into the Meherrin River for a scientific study. The function, f(x) = 15,000 (98)x , represents t

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

I'm guessing you mean f(x)=15,000(9/8)^x. If this is what you mean, the population would increase by about 12,000 (12030.4870605 to be exact).

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting equation: f(x)=15,000(9/8)^x

You can clean up the 9/8 to be 1.125

Now what you want to do is find the answer to (9/8)^5 which is 1.8020324707

Next multiply 1.8020324707 by 15,000 and you get 27030.4870605

Finally 27,030.4870605 - 15,000 gives you 12030.4870605. Which means that the population increased by about 12,000.
