(Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.) In 2011, the IRS increased the deductible mileage cost to

55.5 cents from 51 cents.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\%Change = 8.8\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Initial = 51\ cents[/tex]

[tex]Final = 55.5\ cents[/tex]

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as;

[tex]\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{55.5 - 51 }{51 } * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{4.5}{51} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{4.5* 100\%}{51}[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{450\%}{51}[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = 8.8\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage change is approximately 8.8%

Lines j and k are parallel and cut by a transversal t. If m<1 = 4x – 20 and m<6 = 5x – 25, what is m<2?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m<2 = 5.

because if you subtract 5x from 4x and that equals -1x. then you add 20 to -25 that equals -5. then you divided -5 by the -1x and you get 5.

I can't answer the first question because you need to draw lines from one number to another and I'm not sure how to type that. The answer to the second question is choice 1.

Answer:

1)  draw a colored in dot right above 0 with an arrow connected to it that points to the left of the graph

2) draw a white uncolored in dot right above 12 connected to an arrow that points to the left of the graph

6) draw a colored in dot right above -4 with an arrow connected to it that points to the right of the graph

7) draw a colored in dot right above 2 with an arrow connected to it that points to the left of the graph

For question 1 on the second image, the answer is Option 1. We would color in the dot right above 36 because the child an be 36 inches and still ride the ride, and we would leave the dot right above 48 uncolored because in order to ride the ride the child must be less than 48 inches they cannot be 48 inches or taller if they want to ride the ride.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality for the first question can be simplified to p [tex]\leq \\[/tex] 0, so just draw a colored in dot right above 0 with an arrow connected to it that points to the left of the graph (indicating that all values of p are less than or equal to 0)

The inequality for the second equation can be simplified to g < 12, so just draw a white uncolored in dot right above 12 connected to an arrow that points to the left of the graph (indicating that all values of g are less than 12)

The inequality for the problem that says 6), can be simplified to -4 [tex]\leq \\[/tex] c, so just draw a colored in dot right above -4 with an arrow connected to it that points to the right of the graph (indicating that all values of c are equal to or greater than -4)

The inequality for the problem that says 7), can be simplified to j [tex]\geq[/tex] 2, so just draw a colored in dot right above 2 with an arrow connected to it that points to the left of the graph (indicating that all values of j are equal to or greater than 2)

The senior classes at High School A and High School B planned separate trips to New York City. The senior class at High School A rented and filled 1 van and 6 buses with 372 students. High School Brented and filled 4 vans and 12 buses with 780 students. Each van and each bus carried the same number of students. How many students can a van carry? How many students can a bus carry? *

Answers

Answer:

ANSWER:  each van carries 18 people and each bus can                   transport 59 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of vans

      y = number of buses

Then x + 6y = 372

      4x + 12y = 780

Multiply the first equation by -4:  -4x - 24y = -1488

                                                  4x + 12y = 780

Adding the equations, we get -12y = -708

                                                y = 59

Substitute for y in the equation x + 6y = 372:

  x + 6(59) = 372

  x + 354 = 372

            x = 18

A dog that weighs 14 pounds should eat 1 5/8 cups of a certain type of dog food per day. How much of the same type of dog food should be fed, per day, to a dog who weighs 26 pounds?
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

Answers

1 5/8 = 13/8
(13/8)/14 = .116 or 13/112
.116 (26) = 3.016 or 169/56

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 1/56 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you're to assume that the amount of food is supposed to be proportional to weight. If x is the amount of food for the 26-pound dog, then ...

  cups/weight = (1 5/8)/14 = x/26

Multiplying by 26 we have ...

  x = (26)(13/8)/14 = 338/112 . . . cups

  x = 3 1/56 cups ≈ 3.02 cups

About 3.02 cups of the same type of food should be fed to a 26-pound dog.

Answers

Answer:

First one

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles basically means which angles added together equals 180 degrees, 180 degrees is also a straight line.

So the answer would be the first one because both the angles added together is 180.

It’s the first one>>>40°+140°<<< because supplementary angles are two angles that should add up to 180° because 180°is the degree of a straight line. And the only one that adds up to 180 is the first one. Hope this helps!

The words don't actually matter, it is the picture that has the question.

Answers

Answer:

we get [tex]\mathbf{(g \ o \ f)(4)=9}[/tex]

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

[tex]f(x)=-x^3\\g(x)= |\frac{1}{8}x-1|[/tex]

We need to find (g о f)(4)

For finding (g о f)(4) we will first find g(f(x)) i.e putting value of f(x) inside g(x) and then put x=4

[tex](g \ o \ f)(x)=g(f(x))\\(g \ o \ f)(x)=|\frac{1}{8}(-x^3)-1 |[/tex]

Now, putting x=4

[tex](g \ o \ f)(x)=|\frac{1}{8}(-x^3)-1 |\\Put \ x=4\\(g \ o \ f)(4)=|\frac{1}{8}(-(4)^3)-1 |\\(g \ o \ f)(4)=|\frac{1}{8}(-64)-1 |\\(g \ o \ f)(4)=|-8-1 |\\(g \ o \ f)(4)=|-9| \\\\We \ will \ use \ absolute \ value \ i.e \ 9 \\(g \ o \ f)(4)=9[/tex]

So, we get [tex]\mathbf{(g \ o \ f)(4)=9}[/tex]

What is the partial fraction decomposition of
8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)?

Answers

Answer:

8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)= 5/(x+8) +  3/(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given the expression

8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)

in partial fraction the expression is

8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)= A/(x+8) +  B/(x-1)

8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)= A(x-1)+B(x+8)/(x+8)(x-1)

equating the numerator we have

8x+19=A(x-1)+B(x+8)-------------------------1

to find A put x=-8 in eqn 1

8(-8)+19=A(-8-1)+B(-8+8)

-64+19=-9A

-45=-9A

A=45/9

A=5

to find B put x=1 in eqn 1

8(1)+19=A(1-1)+B(1+8)

8+19=9B

27=9B

B=27/9

B=3

The partial fraction decomposition

8x+19/(x+8)(x-1)= 5/(x+8) +  3/(x-1)
