Both the numerator and denominator have a 9 and a "b" in common, so we can reduce the fraction to:
3c/4d
Answer:
12,138 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Create an equation using the basic exponential growth equation:
y = a(1 + r)^t, where a is the initial amount, r is the growth rate as a decimal, and t is the amount of time in years.
Plug in the values we know
y = a(1 + r)^t
y = 8200(1 + 0.04)^10
y = 8200(1.04)^10
= 12,138 people
9514 1404 393
Explanation:
We can find the slope by solving for y.
3x +2y +7 = 5x +3y +10
-2x -3 = y . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -5x-10-2y to both sides of the equation
In this form, the slope (m) is the coefficient of x, -2. Hence m = -2.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
A graph of the equation shows it has an x-intercept of -1.5 and a y-intercept of -3. The slope (m) is then "rise" divided by "run", or ...
m = rise/run = -3/1.5
m = -2
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 5 = 3x + 15
8x - 3x + 5 = 3x - 3x + 15
5x + 5 = 15
5x + 5 - 5 = 15 - 5
5x = 10
5x / 5 = 10 / 5
x = 2
