The price of gas on Wednesday was 52.03/gallon. On Friday, the price of gas was $2.26. What is the percent change in the price of gas?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage change equals the change in value divided by the absolute value of the original value, multiplied by  .

[tex]\text { Percentage Change }=\frac{\Delta V}{\left|V_{1}\right|} \times 100[/tex]

Here

[tex]\Delta V=2.26-2.03\\\\=0.23\$/gallon[/tex]

[tex]V_{1}=2.03\$/gallon[/tex]

The percent change in the price of gas

[tex]=\frac{0.23}{2.03} \times100\\\\=9.85\%[/tex]

Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]

Khalil uses the method of similar triangles to find the distance across the river, [tex]\overline{PR}[/tex]

The distance across the river is [tex]\underline{308.\overline 3 \ feet}[/tex]

Reasons:

The distances between the formed the sight-lines are;

[tex]\overline{RB}[/tex] = 185 feet

[tex]\overline{OC}[/tex] = 275 feet

The distance between the point close to the river and the next point further from the river [tex]\overline{RO}[/tex] = 150 feet

In triangles ΔPRB and ΔPOC, we have;

∠PRE = ∠POC = 90° Given

∠PER ≅ ∠PCO By corresponding angle formed between two parallel lines and a common transversal.

∴ ΔPRE is similar to ΔPOC by Angle-Angle, AA, similarity theorem

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\overline {PR}}{\overline {PO}} = \mathbf{\frac{\overline {RE}}{\overline {OC}}}[/tex]

Let x represent the distance across the river, we have;

[tex]\overline{PR}[/tex] = x

[tex]\overline{PO}[/tex] = 150 + x

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{150 + x} = \frac{185}{275}[/tex]

275·x = 185 × (150 + x) = 27,750 + 185·x

275·x - 185·x = 27,750

90·x = 27,750

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{27,750}{90} = \mathbf{308.\overline 3}[/tex]

Therefore, the distance across the river, x = [tex]\mathbf{\overline{PR}}[/tex] = [tex]\underline{308.\overline 3 \ feet}[/tex]

So if we look at the function, it is an exponential, meaning that it is a number to the power of x
The graph can be described by the equation

y = a^x

If we look at the graph, one of the points on the line is (2, 16), the x value is 2 and the y value is 16

If we consider this along with the function for the graph, we can say that

16 = a^2

An auto insurance company classifies each motorist as "high risk" if the motorist has had at least one moving violation during the past calendar year and "low risk" if the motorist has had no violations during the past calendar year. According to the company's data, a high-risk motorist has a 50% chance of remaining in the high-risk category the next year and a 50% chance of moving to the low-risk category. A low-risk motorist has a 90% chance of moving to the high-risk category the next year and a 10% chance of remaining in the low-risk category. In the long term, what percentage of motorists fall in each category? (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

high-risk category %
low-risk category %

Answers

The percentage of motorists falling in each category, in the long term, are as follows:

High-risk category = 70%

Low-risk category = 30%

Data and Calculations:

Risk Profile Categories of Motorists

                                                       High Risk      Low Risk

Probability of remaining

 in the same category                      50%              10%

Probability of moving to another

 category                                          50%              90%

Probability a motorist falling in the high-risk category = (50% x 50%) + (50% x 90%)

= 25% + 45%

= 70%

Probability a motorist falling in the low-risk category = (50% x 50%) + (50% x 10%)

= 25% + 5%

= 30%

Thus, the probability of a motorist falling in the high-risk category is 70%, while the probability of a motorist falling in the low-risk category is 30%.
