The percent of the increase in the number of yards Nicole swam will be 33.33%.

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol ‘%’ is used to symbolize it.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

Nicole swam 1,200 yards during the swim rookie minicamp before the break. She swam 1,600 yards after the break.

Then the percent of the increase in the number of yards Nicole swam will be

P = [(1600 - 1200) / 1200] x 100

P = (400 / 1200) x 100

P = 0.3333 x 100

P = 33.33%

The percent of the increase in the number of yards Nicole swam will be 33.33%.

If two hikers are 11 miles apart and walking towards each other and they meet in 2 hours, then if one hiker walks 0.3mph faster than the other, then the rate at which the slow hiker and fast hiker walk towards each other is equal to 2.6 and 2.9 mph respectively.

Consider, the speed of the slow hiker = s

Then, the speed of the fast hiker = s + 0.3

The distance covered by both the hikers in 1 hour = 2s + 0.3 miles

The distance covered by both the hikers in 2 hours = 2(2s + 0.3) = 4s + 0.6 miles

We can find the value of s by forming an algebraic expression as follows,

4s + 0.6 = 11

4s = 11 - 0.6

4s = 10.4

s = 10.4 / 4

s = 2.6

Speed of the slow hiker = s = 2.6 mph

Speed of the fast hiker = s + 0.3 = 2.6 + 0.3 = 2.9 mph

Hence, the rate at which the slow hiker and the fast hiker walk toward each other is equal to 2.6 and 2.9 mph respectively.

Answer:

A. 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC:

<A + <B + <C = 180°

=> 45° + (2x - 15)° + 4x° = 180°

=> 6x° + 30° = 180°

=> 6x° = 150°

=> x° = 25°

Choose A.25°

Answer:

A. 25 degrees

x = 20

2(20) - 15 = 25 degrees

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = 0.5 × base × height

= 0.5 × 6 × 13

= 39

Area of parallelogram = 4 × Area of triangle

Note - Area of parallelogram = base × perpendicular height

Hence,

Base × perpendicular height = 4 × 39

12 × H = 156

H = 156 ÷ 12

= 13

Answer = 13

Answer:

h = 13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

here b = 6 and h = 13 , then

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 6 × 13 = 3 × 13 = 39 cm²

Then the area (A) of the parallelogram = 4 × 39 = 156 cm²

the area (A) of the parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the height )

here b = 12 , then

12h = 156 ( divide both sides by 12 )

h = 13

Answer:

4x^3 (3)_/x + 10x^3 (3)_/x

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets solve the first term

When you multiply exponents you add them, so x^10 can be split into:

x^3 * x^3 * x^3 * x^1

We can then take it out.

4x^3 (3)_/x

Then for the other part we can also factor it.

2*2*2 is 8 so we can take that out and multiply it by 5 =10

You can keep x in there since you can factor it into smaller pieces.

The final answer you get when you add all of it together is :
4x^3 (3)_/x + 10x^3 (3)_/x

Answer:

2.65 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

He originally had 4 gallons and he used 1.05 gallons.

4 - 1.05 = 2.95

He then used another three-tenths to take another friend home.

Three-tenths is equal to 3/10 or 30/100 or 0.30

2.95 - 0.30 = 2.65 gallons

The volume of the square frustrum, the volume of the pyramid and the volume of the obelisc are 1018791.667 ft³, 22019.625 ft³ and 1040811.292 ft³, respectively.

In this problem we must determine the volume of a obelisc, which is equal to the sum of the volumes of a square frustrum and a pyramid with a square base. First, sum the volumes of the frustrum and the pyramid:

V' = (1 / 3) · 500 · (55² + 55 · 34.5 + 34.5²)

V' = 1018791.667 ft³

V'' = (1 / 3) · (34.5)² · 55.5

V'' = 22019.625 ft³

Second, calculate the volume of the obelisc:

V = V' + V''

V = 1018791.667 ft³ + 22019.625 ft³

V = 1040811.292 ft³

A local maximum occurs over the interval (-2,0).

A local minimum occurs over the interval (0,2).

If the graph of the function increases first and decreases after a particular point, then the function acquires a local maximum at that point.

Similarly, if the graph of the function decreases first and then increases after a point, then the function acquires a local minimum at that point.  

Here the given x and f(x) values for the continuous function f(x) are:

x        f(x)

-3       -16

-2        -1

-1         2

0         -1

1          -4

2          -1

As we can see by examining the table values, the function is increasing in the intervals (-3,2) and (-2,-1).The function acquires value f(x) = 2 at x = -1 and then it starts to decrease. So this value f(x) = 2 is the local maximum and is acquired on the interval (-2,0).

The graph is then decreasing from x = -1 to x = 1. The function has the value f(x) = -4 at x = 1. Then the function starts to increase from x = 1 to x = 2. So f(x) = -4 is the local minimum of the function and is acquired on the interval (0,2).

Yes, figure B is a scale copy of figure A.

As per the question statement and its reference diagram attached thereby, we are provided with two geometrical figures of same shape but different sizes.

We are required to determine if figure B is a scale copy of figure A or not.

To solve this question, we need to carefully compare the lengths of the corresponding sides from both the figures.

We can clearly see that, the dimension of every side of figure B is twice that of the corresponding side of Figure A, i.e.,

[tex](1*2)=2\\(2*2)=4\\(3*2)=6\\(4*2)=8[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Therefore A+B+C = 180

This means 4x+34+7x-10+5x+12 = 180

Simplies down to 16x+36 = 180

Rearrange to have 16x = 144

Divide by 16 on both side to get x = 9

Substitue the value of x back into the equation of A

A = 4(9)+34 = 70 degrees

The standard form for given values is 12416.

A number has two form . First is standard form and another is expended form of numbers.

It is a form in which we write number as a whole without describing the places for the numbers.

The numbers such as 456, 17817, 9009, 32 etc all are the standard form of the numbers.

In the case of expended form we generally write number with its describe places of value or with the plus (+) symbol between them.

For example, 16 ones 24 tens 1 hundred is the expended form of numbers.

In the given question the form given is :

16 ones 24 tens 1 hundred
