The population of mastertown is 23,000 in 2012.
Assume that the increase of the population has a rate of 2% increase annually. Writing an equation model will help us find the number of population in the coming years. Here is the equation model using the geometric sequence formula.

An = A1 * r^(n-1)

<span>Population = starting population 2012 * 0.02^[(year - 2012) - 1]</span>

Answer:  y = 23000 (1 + 0.02)^x

Step by step solution:

Population of mastertown was 23,000 in 2012

mastertowns population increases at a rate of 2% per year

By using the following equation :

y= a(1+r)^n

a= initial amount  

n = the number of years  

r= growth rate

Keeping the above statement in mind -> Population of mastertown (y) based on numbers of years since 2012 (x)

a = 23000

An increase by 2%  

r = 2/100 = 0.02

So the final equation would be :

y = 23000 (1 + 0.02)^x

Is 3/4 and 20/28 equivalent?
Mila [183]
No, because simplified, 20/28 would be 5/7, not 3/4
21/28 would be equivalent to 3/4 though

Precipitation for the month of March was 6 ½ inches less than average. In April, the precipitation was 2 ⅜ inches less than aver
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The precipitation for both March and April was 8 7/8 inches below average

Step-by step explanation;

For the month of march, precipitation was 6 1/2 inches less than average

For the month of April, precipitation was 2 3/8 inches left.

Now we want to calculate how many inches less than average was precipitation in both wants

What we simply do here is to add the inches with which they were both left than average in both months

That would be;

6 1/2 + 2 3/8

= 13/2 + 19/8 = (52 + 19)/8 = 71/8 = 8 7/8 inches
