Dr. Piegan treated 440 dogs. The percentage of obese dogs increased from 52.5 percent in 2010 to 55.0 percent in 2011. What was the percent increase?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Well, the formula for finding percent change is (amount of change)/(original amount) . So, the amount of change is 2.5 and original amount is 52.5. Then, to get the percent increase, you divide 2.5 by 52.5 which is 0.047619048. You multiply by 100 since its percent and get 4.7619048. But you should probably round to the nearest tenth ≈ 4.8%.

Answers

Answer:

$133 is closet to total of the steak platters and gratuity.

D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Brad had a small gathering at a local steakhouse. The steakhouse offers three dinner platters which vary by size and price.

They ordered 4 of the 6-ounce platters, 2 of the 8-ounce platters, and 3 of the 11-ounce platters.

First we make table of order, platter and price.

No. of order            Platters              Price/Plate              Total Price

      4                       6-ounce                $ 9.95                      $ 39.80

      2                       8-ounce                $12.95                      $ 25.90

      3                      11-ounce                 $15.95                      $ 47.85

Now, we will add the total price = 39.80 + 25.90 + 47.85 = $113.55

If a gratuity of 17% added to bill.

Total bill = $113.55

Gratuity value = 113.55 x 0.17 = $19.3035

Total bill of the steak platters = 113.55 + 19.3035 = $132.85 ≈ $133

Hence, $133 is closet to total of the steak platters and gratuity.

4 x 9.95 = $39.80
2 x 12.95 = $25.90
3 x 15.95 = $47.85

Add these up together and you get a total of $113.55

add on 17%...

113.55 x 1.17 = 132.8535
= $133

When solving Systems of linear equations, sometimes there is one solution,and sometimes there infinite solutions. Why does this happen?

Answers

Answer: If you were to graph the solution it would be evident. One solution is when the lines meet at one point, no solution is when the lines are parallel to each other (they do not touch) and infinitely solutions happens when the two lines are on top of each other.
