Answer:

11%

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a simple question, whenever you need to find % increase or % decrease.

always divide the increase as in this case $2 by the original amount which is $18 and multiply it by 100 as you need to take the %.

so,

2/18*100 gives you 11.11% * is multiply

Step-by-step explanation:

$20 - $18 = $2

to get % of increase we need to know what % of $18 the $2 are.

$2 ÷ $18 = 0.11111111........

Multiply this number by 100 and you will get the percentage.

0.111111111111........ x 100 = 11.1111111111....%

   5 19    6 -18
      -3
      -15 -12   18

   5 4   -6 0

Therefore, the width is 5x^2 + 4x - 6

Helppp please.

Sati [7]

The solution
m = s + 5
m - 4 = (3s) - 3 
(s + 5) - 4 = 3s - 3 
s + 1 = 3s - 3 
s = 3s - 4 
-2s = -4 
s = 2 
m = 7 
Check this: 

m - 4 = 3s - 3 
7 - 4 = 3(2) - 3 
3 = 6 - 3 
3 = 3 

So Sandy is 2 and Megan is 7.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1. 3; 2. 12; 3. 5; 4. 13; 5. 10; 6. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the distance formula to calculate the lengths of the line segments.

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

1. A (1,5), B (4,5) (red)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1}^{2}) + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(4 - 1)^{2} + (5 - 5)^{2}}\\= \sqrt{3^{2} + 0^{2}} = \sqrt{9 + 0} = \sqrt{9} = \mathbf{3}$

2. A (2,-5), B (2,7) (blue)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(2 - 2)^{2} + (7 - (-5))^{2}}\\= \sqrt{0^{2} + 12^{2}} = \sqrt{0 + 144} = \sqrt{144} = \mathbf{12}$

3. A (3,1), B (-1,4 ) (green)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(-1 - 3)^{2} + (4 - 1)^{2}}\\= \sqrt{(-4)^{2} + 3^{2}} = \sqrt{16 + 9} = \sqrt{25} = \mathbf{5}$

4. A (-2,-5), B (3,7) (orange)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(3 - (-2))^{2} + (7 - (-5))^{2}}\\= \sqrt{5^{2} + 12^{2}} = \sqrt{25 + 144} = \sqrt{169} = \mathbf{13}$

5. A (5,4), B (-3,-2) (purple)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(-3 - 5)^{2} + (-2 - 4)^{2}}\\= \sqrt{(-8)^{2} + (-6)^{2}} = \sqrt{64 + 36} = \sqrt{100} = \mathbf{10}$

6. A (1,-8), B (-5,0) (black)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(-5 - 1)^{2} + (0 - (-8))^{2}}\\-= \sqrt{(-6)^{2} + (-8)^{2}} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = \mathbf{10}$
