Last month, you were able to purchase 8 computers. by the middle of the current month, you were able to purchase 8 more computers than last month. by the end of the current month you were only able to purchase 2 additional computers. what was the percentage increase from last month's purchases to the end of this month's purchases?

125 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Computers purchased in the last month = 8

By the middle of the current month, 8 more computers than the last month were purchased. This means, total number of computers purchased by middle of current month = 8 + 8 = 16

Number of computers purchased by end of current month = 2

So,

Total computers purchased by current month = 16 + 2 = 18

We have to find the percentage increase in the number of computers from last month's purchases to the end of this month's purchases. The formula for percentage change is:

Here, Original Value is the number of computers from last month and New Value is the number of computers from current month. Using the values in the formula, we get:

Thus, there was a 125% increase from last month's purchases to the end of this month's purchases

guess at question:

a vertical line intersects the graph of g(x,y) = 0 at two points. what conclusion follows about the function f(x) implicitly defined by g(x,f(x)) = 0?

the domain of f(x) cannot include the x coordinate of any such vertical line.

informally, f(x) is not a function, and

g(x,y)=0 cannot be solved for y uniquely.

the relation r = {(x,y) such that g(x,y) = 0} is a function if

for all (a,b) ∊ r and (c,d) ∊ r, a=c implies b=d.
