Answer:

-7 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

-11 2/3 -(-4 1/5) = -11 2/3 + 4 1/5. Now, we need to find the LCM of 3 and 5. The LCM of 3 and 5 is 15 because 15 is the lowest number that can divide both 3 and 5 separately and both results will still be whole numbers.

Now, we have -11 10/15 + 4 3/15.

-11 10/15 + 4 3/15 = -7 7/15.

$\bold{\boxed{\huge{\blue{\underline{Answer }}}}}$

$\bold{\underline{ Given :- }}$

$\sf{The\: population\: is\: decreased \:by\: 10 percent }$

$\sf{There\: were \: only \: 1800 \: people \: left}$

$\bold{\underline{ To\: Find :- }}$

$\sf{we \: have \: to \: find\: original \: population? }$

$\bold{\underline{ Let's \: Begin :- }}$

$\sf{Let \: the \: total \: population\: be \: x }$

$\sf{\underline{ Therefore }}$

$\sf{According \: to \: the \: question }$

$\sf{ x - 10/100 = 1800 }$

$\sf{ 100x - 10/100 = 1800}$

$\sf{ 100x - 10 = 1800 × 100}$

$\sf{100x - 10 = 180000}$

$\sf{ 100x = 180000 + 10}$

$\sf{ x = 180010/100}$

$\sf{ x = 1800.1 }$

$\bold{\pink{Hence , The\: original \:population \:of \: the\: village \:is \:1800.1 }}$

How do you do this question?

katovenus [111]

<h3>4 Answers: A, C, E, and F</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Choice A is true assuming we have $a_n = (-1)^n*b_n$

In this case, $a_n = (-1)^n*\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$ and $b_n = \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$

--------

Choice B is false. See choice A above.

--------

Choice C is true. The sequence $\{b_n\}$ is decreasing. As n gets larger, $b_n$ gets smaller. This is because the denominator is growing larger with the numerator held constant.

--------

Choice D is false. This contradicts choice C.

--------

Choice E is true since the denominator is growing forever

This is similar to $\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} = 0$

--------

Choice F is true due to choices C and E being true.

--------

Choice G is false because it contradicts choice F.

Thrifty Supply Store normally sells candy bars for $0.59. Today they are running a special 2 candy bars for $0.99. How much woul

Black_prince [1.1K]

Here is the solution:

0.59 * 10 = $5.90

0.99 * 5 = $4.95

$5.90 - $4.95 = $0.95

You would save 0.95$ if you bought 10 candy bars at the sale price rather than at the regular price. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
