At the Henry Doorly Zoo the giraffe grew from 24 inches to 60 inches long in five months. Find the percent of change and show your work clearly. Is this a percent increase or percent
decrease?

150%

It is a percentage increase

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the percentage increase

Mathematically, we have this as;

Percentage increase = (new value - old value)/old value * 100%

New value = new height = 60 inches

old value = old height = 24 inches

Substituting these values, we have ;

(60-24)/24 * 100%

= 36/24 * 100%

= 1.5 * 100% = 150%

It is a percentage increase as we can see growth

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
