Answer:

Jorge's weight change was approximately 5%.

Marie's weight change was approximately 14%

Marie had the greater percent change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Marie's former weight = 175

New weight = 150

Difference = 175 - 150 = 25

Percentage change = 25/175 × 100

= 1/7 × 100

= 14.2%

Jorge's former weight = 190

Jorge's new weight = 180

Difference = 190 - 180 = 10

Percentage change = 10/190 × 100

= 5.26%

From the above explanation, the following are right:

• Jorge's weight change was approximately 5%.

• Marie's weight change was approximately 14%

• Marie had the greater percent change.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Jorge’s weight change was approximately 5%.

Marie’s weight change was approximately 14%.

Marie had the greatest percent change.

Marie: 175-150 = 25

What percentage is 25 of 175 = x/100 = 25/175

= 14.29%

Jorge: 190-180= 10

What percent is 10 of 190? = x/100 = 10/190

= 5.3%

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$95.78

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = 300t / (2t² + 8)

t = 0 corresponds to the beginning of August. t = 1 corresponds to the end of August. t = 2 corresponds to the end of September. So on and so forth. So the second semester is from t = 5 to t = 10.

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 300t / (2t² + 8) dt

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 150t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ∫₅¹⁰ 2t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ln(t² + 4) |₅¹⁰

$T₂ = 75 ln(104) − 75 ln(29)

$T₂ ≈ 95.78

If pentagon ABCDE is rotated 180 degrees around the origin to create pentagon A’B’C’D’E’, what is the ordered pair of point A’?

Semmy [17]

Answer:

(A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A is at (-2,4)

Rule of a 180° rotation about the origin: (x,y) --> (-x,-y)

Using the rule, (-2,4) will become (2,-4).

A' should be (2,-4) or Option A.

N(17+x)=34x−r<br> I need to solve for x

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The value of x is, $x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

Explanation:

Given: $N(17+x)=34x-r$

Distributive Property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

If $a\cdot(b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c$

Now, using distributive property on left hand side of the given expression as:

$N\cdot 17+N\cdot x = 34x-r$ or $17N+Nx = 34x-r$

Addition Property of equality state that we add the same number from both sides of an equation.

Add r to both sides of an equation:

$17N+Nx+r=34x-r+r$

Simplify:

$17N+Nx+r=34x$

Subtraction Property of equality state that we subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract Nx from both sides of an equation;

$17N+Nx+r-Nx=34x-Nx$

Simplify:

$17N+r=34x-Nx$

or

$17N+r=x(34-N)$

Division Property of equality states that we divide the same number from both sides of an equation.

Divide by (34-N) to both sides of an equation;

$\frac{17N+r}{34-N}= \frac{x(34-N)}{34-N}$

On Simplify:

$x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$
