Answer:

200 %

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above, the pencils increases from 75 to 225, so what we are looking for is the percentage increase

The formula for finding percentage increase is;

% increase = $\frac{Increase}{Original}$ × 100%

First; we will find the difference between the two numbers i.e 75 and 225

Increase = New number - Original number

= 225 - 75

= 150

Then we divide the increase by the original number and then multiply by 100 %

That is;

% increase = $\frac{150}{75}$ × 100%

= 2 × 100%

= 200%

Therefore; the percentage increase is 200%

For finding percents, I use a method called FOO
which is final-original÷original
the original is the first number and the final is the second
After FOO you must multiply by 100 to make it a percent
The equation is as followed:
225-75÷75×100
The answer is 125%

maria [59]

Answer:

The correct option is;

∠AQS ≅ ∠BQS when AS = BS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AQ is equal to BQ. When AS is drawn congruent to BS, we have;

QS is congruent to SQ by reflective property

Therefore;

The three sides of triangle QAS are congruent to the three sides of triangle QBS, from which we have;

∠AQS and ∠BQS are corresponding angles, therefore;

∠AQS ≅∠BQS because corresponding angles of congruent triangles are also congruent.

Given $a \equiv 1 \pmod{7}$, $b \equiv 2 \pmod{7}$, and $c \equiv 6 \pmod{7}$, what is the remainder when $a^{81} b^{91} c^{27}$

Blizzard [7]

$\begin{cases}a\equiv1\pmod7\\b\equiv2\pmod7\\c\equiv6\pmod7\end{cases}$

$a^{81}\equiv1^{81}\equiv1\pmod7$

$b^{91}\equiv2^{91}\pmod7$

$2^{91}\equiv(2^3)^{30}\times2^1\equiv8^{30}\times2\pmod7$
$8\equiv1\pmod7$
$2\equiv2\pmod7$
$\implies2^{91}\equiv1^{30}\times2\equiv2\pmod7$

$c^{27}\equiv6^{27}\pmod7$

$6^{27}\equiv(-1)^{27}\equiv-1\equiv6\pmod7$

$\implies a^{81}b^{91}c^{27}\equiv1\times2\times6\equiv12\equiv5\pmod7$

Find the value of x that will make A||B A- 2x + 50 5x - 80 B- x = [?]

LenKa [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If A||B then the sum of given angles must be equal to 180°

2x + 5 + 5x - 80 = 180 add like terms

7x - 75 = 180 subtract 75 from both sides

7x = 105 divide both sides by 7

x = 15
