Find the percent of change in altitude if a weather balloon moves from 50 ft to 95 ft. Describe the percent of change as an increase or decrease. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.A. 90%; increase

B. 55.9%; decrease

C. 90%; decrease

D. 76.5%; increase

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The change of the weather balloon would be 90% increase. to get the percentage of change we have to subtract 50 ft to 95 ft, it will then give us the 45 ft change. Then we have to divide 45 ft by 50 ft times 100, it will give us 90%. Then since the change and percentage of change is positive then the change could be describe as increasing.

Express the fractions 3/4 7/16 and 5/8 with the LCD

Answers

LCD means Least Common Denominator. To find the LCD of 3/4, 7/16, & 5/8, we will first get the multiple of each denominator until we get the same multiple of the three denominator
Multiple of
     i. 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16
     ii. 16 are 16
     iii. 8 are 8, 16

16 is the multiple of 4, 16 and 8. So we will use it now as the LCD of the three given fractions.
We can now express the given fractions with the LCD
     3/4 = 12/16
     7/16 = 7/16
       5/8 = 10/16

Given EG = 16 and FH = 12, what is the length of one side of the rhombus?

Answers

Length of one side of the rhombus is 10.
If there is a rhombus EFGH, such as yours, with points E, F, G, H (such as in the .jpeg image in attachment), and if the notation of rhombus side is a (rhombus has 4 sides and each of them is of the same length):
FH/2 = 12/2 = 6 (shorter diagonal of rhombus, it's half)
EG/2 = 16/2 = 8 (longer diagonal of rhombus, it's half)
-----------------------------------------
a^2 = (FH/2)^2 + (EG/2)^2
a^2 = 6^2 + 8^2
a^2 = 36 + 64
a^2 = 100
a = square root of 100
a = 10

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at C is 90 degrees, and BCD is a right triangle, so we can applythe Pythagorean theorem here -- 60²+m²=65², so 65²-60²=m²=625. The possible values for m are 25 and -25, and since m can't be negative, 25 is our answer as 25 is the square root of 625
