The price of an item yesterday was 85 . Today, the price rose to 136. Find the percentage increase.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

60% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

First: subtract your final value by your starting value

136 - 85 = 51

Second: divide your product from the first step by your starting value

51 ÷ 85 = 0.6

Third: multiply your product from the second step by 100

0.6 x 100 = 60

Monica wants to open a savings account with a deposit of 3,000 monica will not make

Answers

Account Y would earn Monica about $62.70 more interest than account X.

Given Monica deposits $3000.

Bank offers two different savings accounts.

Account X pays 2.1% simple annual interest and Account Y pays 2.4% compounded annually, both for 5 years.

For account X, we have:

Principal (P) = $3000

time (t) = 5 years

rate of interest (r) = 2.1%

we need to calculate simple interest:

Simple interest = P×t×r/100

= 3000c5×2.1/100

= $315

simple interest for 5 years is $315

For account Y, we have:

Principal (P) = $3000

time (t) = 5 years

rate of interest (r) = 2.4%

we need to calculate Compound interest:

compound interest = P×(1₊rate)^time ₋ P

= 3000(1₊2.4/100)⁵ ₋ 3000

= 3000(1.024)⁵ ₋ 3000

= 3000(1.12589907) ₋ 3000

= 3377.69 ₋ 3000

= $377.69

The compound interest for 5 years is $377.7

compound interest of account Y ₋ simple interest of account X

= 377.7 ₋ 315

= $62.70

hence the right option is that account Y would earn Monica about $62.70 more interest than account X.

Acme Movers charges $210 plus $20 per hour to move household goods across town. Hank's Movers charges $55
per hour. For what lengths of time does it cost less to hire Hank's Movers?

Answers

For less than 6 hours, Hank's Movers charge less.

For what lengths of time does it cost less to hire Hank's Movers?

Acme movers charge $210 plus $20 per hour, so if they work for x hours they charge:

A(x) = $210 + $20*x

Hank's movers only charge $55 per hour, so here the linear equation is:

H(x) = $55*x

They charge the same amount when:

A(x) = H(x)

$210 + $20*x = $55*x

Now we can solve that to get:

$210 + $20*x = $55*x

$210 = $55*x - $20*x = $35*x

$210/$35 = x = 6

So, for 6 hours, both companies charge the same amount.

For less than 6 hours, Hank's Movers charge less.

if 4 liters of a 15% vinegar solution is mixed with x liters of a 30% vinegar solution, the result is a 25% vinegar solution. How many liters of the 30% vinegar solution were mixed ?

Answers

8 liters of 30 percent vinegar solution was mixed.

Percent or percentage is defined as the value for every 100. the simple way to calculate percentage is by dividing the data with the whole data and multiplying it by 100.

4 liters of 15 percent vinegar solution contains:

(15/100)×4 liters of vinegar=0.6 liters

x liters of 30 percent vinegar solution contains:

(30/100)× x liters of vinegar=0.03x liters

Therefore the total vinegar in the 25 percent solution is (0.6+0.3x) liters.

Total volume of the solution is (x+4) liters

(x+4) liters of 25 percent solution contains:

(25/100)×(x+4) liters =(0.25x+1) liters

Now we can equate both values to calculate the value of x from a linear equation:

(0.6+0.3x)=(0.25x+1)

or, 0.05x=1-0.6

or, x= 8 liters

Hence 8 liters or 30 percent solution was mixed.

B$39.75 more

C $44.75 more

D $44.75 less

Answers

Ching Weng spend 39.75 less then she budgeted on the personal items for the month of January.

We have Ching Weng's budget and expenses for personal items.

We have to determine how much more or less did she spend than she budgeted.

What is budget ?

A budget is an estimation of revenue and expenses over a specified future period of time.

According to the question -

The total amount kept by Ching Weng as budget = $95 + $15 + $20 = $130

The total expenses of Ching Weng = $60.75 + $7.85 + $21.65 = $90.25

Since, expenses are less than budget, she spend less than she budgeted. Thee amount saved by her is =

Total budget - total expenses = 130 - 90.25 = $39.75

Hence, Option A is the correct alternative.

The two shortest sides of a right triangle are 6 and 8 units long, what is the length of the perimeter

Answers

The perimeter of the right angled triangle is 24 units.

The perimeter is defined as the sum of all sides of a polygon. To calculate the perimeter of a triangle we add the length of all the 3 sides of the triangle.

The given side lengths are 6 and 8 units.

We know from Pythagorean theorem that for a right angled triangle the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Hypotenuse is the longest side in a right angled triangle.

Therefore the hypotenuse in this triangle is given by:

Hypotenuse² = 6² + 8²

or, hypotenuse = √(36 + 48) units

or, hypotenuse =√100

or, hypotenuse= 10 units

Now perimeter = (6 + 8 + 10) units = 24 units.

Hence the perimeter of the given right angled triangle is 24 units.

Find the equation of a line that passes through (1,12) and is parallel to the graph of y=3x+4 . Write the equation in​ slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

to find c substitute (1, 12 ) into the partial equation

12 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 12 - 3 = 9

y = 3x + 9 ← equation of parallel line

The annual membership costs £340.
How much discount would you get off?

What is the cost of the membership after the discount?

Answers

The cost of the membership after a discount of $ 136 will be $ 204.

We are given that:

a local gym is giving a discount for the promotional offer it has to make.

Discount percentage = 40 %

Cost of the annual membership = $ 340

Discount = 40 % of $ 340

Discount = 40 / 100 × $ 340

Discount = 0.4 × $ 340

Discount = $ 136

So, the cost of annual membership after discount will be:

Cost = $ 340 - $ 136

Cost = $ 204

Therefore, the cost of the membership after a discount of $ 136 will be $ 204.

a) 31.62 km/hb) 18.4° NE

Given

The speed of the ship = 30 km/h,The speed of the current = 10 km/h

A) Actual velocity is found as the sum of two vectors representing the two velocities.

Since the directions are at 90° (N and E), we will use Pythagorean to find the actual velocity.

[tex]v = \sqrt{30^2+10^2}=\sqrt{1000}= 31.62[/tex] km/h (rounded)
