Answer:

The percent increase in the population of Saint Maria High is:

7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent increase is given by:

 \dfrac{New-Original}{Original}\times 100

New value=1926

Original value=1800

Percent increase=

\dfrac{1926-1800}{1800}\times 100

= \dfrac{126}{18} \\\\=7%

Hence, The percent increase in the population of Saint Maria High is:

7%

It’s a 7% increase. When you want to find percent increase/decrease, you want to subtract the numbers of the before and after. In this case, subtract 1926 and 1800, which will equal 126. Then, percent over 100 would be the first fraction, but since you don’t know the percent, put x. The second fraction is the amount of change over the original number. In this case, the amount of change will be 126 and the original is 1800. x/100=126/1800 now you just cross multiply and solve. You will end up with 7

According to the manufacturer, about 26% of sour candy in a package of Sandy's Sours are grape. What is the probability that the
Leto [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that there are 100 sour candies, Thus-  

26 % of candy are grape implies that 26% of 100 candies are grape that is equal to 26

Now remaing candies that are not grape are 100-26 = 74

Based on the rule of multiplication:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A)/ P(B|A)  

 In the beginning, there are 26grape candies, probability of choosing first grape candy =  26C1 = 26

 After the first selection, we replace the selected grape candy so there are still 100 candies in the bag P(B|A) =  100C3 = 100 x 99 x 98 x 97!/3! X 97!

= 50 x 33 x 98

So probability =1/ 50 x 33 x 98 x 26

= 1/4204200

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

5,340

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there:)

Amount invested in stock

=5000×0.6=3000

Amount invested in a saving account

5000-3000=2000


The stock increases 9% in the first year

3,000×(1+0.09)=3,270

and loses 4% of its value the second year

3,270×(1−0.04)=3,139.2

Amount of a saving account after two years

2,000×(1+0.049)^(2)=2,200.8


the total amount gained during the 2 years

3,139.2+2,200.8=5,340...answer


Hope it helps

The graph shows the distance Kendrick walks in different lengths of time.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

1) 5

2) 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached below.

The x-axis represents the time in hours and y-axis represents the distance in kilometers.

The first question asks how many kilometers, does Kendrick walk per hour. The straight line represents the distance traveled at various amounts of time.

The point marked on the graph is against time = 1 hour and Distance = 5 km. So this shows:

Kendrick walks 5 kilometers in 1 hour.

In next part, we have to find how much time Kendrick takes to walk 1 kilometer.

Since, we know that:

Kendrick walks 5 kilometers in time = 1 hour

Dividing both sides by 5, we can write:

Kendrick walks 1 kilometer in time = 1/5 hour = 0.2 hour

So, Kendrick takes 0.2 hours to walk 1 kilometer.
