In 1839, Georgia produced 326,000 bales of cotton . By 1860, the state produced 700,000 bales. What was the approximate percent of increase in the bales produced during that 21-year period?

115% increase

Step-by-step explanation: To solve, we need to subtract the first value fro the second value. The formula is Percent Change = ((Second Value – First Value) ÷ First Value) x 100%

700,000-326,000=374,000. Then, divide the difference by the first value.

374,000÷326,000=1.1472392638≈1.15

1.15×100%=115%

Thus, the approximate percent of increase in the bales produced during that 21-year period is 115% increase

step-by-step explanation:

assume that you have 3 different side lengths.   apply the pythagorean theorem here:   square each of the two shortest sides; call them a and b, so that their squares are a² and b².   also square the longest side, calling the result c².

now, if a² + b² = c² is true, the triangle is a right triangle; otherwise it is not a right triangle.
