In 2011, a train carried 8% more passengers than in 2010. In 2012 , it carried 8% more passengers than in 2011. Find the percent

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

there was a 16% increase since 2010 to 2012

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say the train had 100 people on it in 2010 and in 2011 it had an 8% increase which then brings you to 8 plus 100 and you get 108.

Now in 2012 there was an increase 8%, so you will add 8 to your previous answer 108 and receive 116. So now there was 16 more passengers in 2012 than in 2010. Transfer the 16 passengers into 16% and you now have your answer.

Devon purchased a new car valued at $16,000 that depreciated continuously at a rate of 35%. Its current value is $2,000. The equ

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation 2,000 = 16,000(1-r)^t to solve for t;

2000 = 16000(1-0.35)^t

Divide both sides by 16000

2000/16000 = 0.65^t

0.125 =0.65^t

Introduce logarithm on both sides;

ln 0.125 = t ln 0.65

Divide both sides by ln 0.65;

(ln 0.125) / (ln 0.65) = t

-2.07944/ -0.4308 = t

4.827 = t

t= 5 (as a whole number)

Therefore, the car is about 5 years old.

If mAD=85 degrees and mBC=31 degrees find the value

Eddi Din [679]

Answer: x = 11

To start, we know that a whole circle equals 360 degrees. If we subtract the 2 arcs we know, 85 and 31, we have 244 degrees left for the 2 congruent arcs. Dividing that by 2 gives us 122 for each arc.

Now, write the equation: 122 = 13x - 21

Solve this, to find the x = 11.

EF is located at E (x,y) and F (7,-10) and was rotated around the origin. EF became E’F’ with coordinates E’ (4,5) and For (10,7

monitta

Answer:

90° CCW

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume you intend F'(10, 7), point F has been transformed by the rule ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

The transformation rule (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x) represents a 90° CCW rotation.

Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit

Ann [662]

Let
x--------> the number of sandwich lunch specials sold
y-------> the number of wrap lunch specials sold

we know that
2x+3y=1470

Part 1) Change the equation to slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

we know that
the equation to slope-intercept form is of the form
y=mx+b
so
2x+3y=1470------> solve for y
3y=1470-2x-----> divide by 3 both sides
y=(-2/3)x+1470/3
y=(-2/3)x+490

the slope m=-2/3
the y-intercept is 490

Part 2) Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write using complete sentences.

the slope is -2/3 and the y-intercept is 490

Plot the point (0,490)------> the y-intercept.
With the slope count 3 squares to the right and 2 squares down and plot that point, which is (0+3,490-2)--------> (3,488)
Draw a line through the two points

Part 3) Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents. Be sure to use complete sentences.

In function notation, the equation is:
f(x)=(-2/3)x+490
The graph of this function represents how the value of the function varies as the value of x varies. Looking back at the question context, this graph specifically represents how many wraps could have been sold at each number of sandwich sales, in order to maintain the same profit of $1470.

Part 4) Graph the function. On the graph, make sure to label the intercepts. You may graph your equation by hand on a piece of paper and scan your work or you may use graphing technology

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

Part 5) Suppose Sal's total profit on lunch specials for the next month is $1,593. The profit amounts are the same: $2 for each sandwich and $3 for each wrap. In a paragraph of at least three complete sentences, explain how the graphs of the functions for the two months are similar and how they are different

we have that
2x+3y=1593
3y=1593-2x--------> y=(-2/3)x+531
slope=(-2/3)
y intercept=531
therefore
similarities : same slope
differences : y intercepts are different.
This is basically telling me that the lines are parallel lines because they have the same slope.

6) Below is a graph that represents the total profits for a third month. Write the equation of the line that represents this graph. Show your work or explain how you determined the equations

Select two points on the line and write down their coordinates

Let
A( 0,300) B (450,0)
a) find the slope
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)----> m=(0-300)/(450-0)----> m=-2/3
b) with the slope m=(-2/3) and the point A (0,300)
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-300=(-2/3)*(x-0)----> y=(-2/3)x+300

the answer Part 6) is
y=(-2/3)x+300
