A population increases 3% each year. If the city is now 5 million, what will the population be in 5 years?

1 answer:

8 0

5 million x 3% = 150,000
1 Year = 5,150,000

5.15 million x 3% = 154,500
2 Years = 5,304,500

5,304,500 x 3% = 159,135
3 Years = 5,463,635

5,463,635 x 3% = 163,909.05
4 Years = 5,627,544.05

5,627,544.05 x 3% = 168,826.322
5 Years = 5,796,370.37

After 5 years, the population will be 5,796,370.37

The ratio of dogs to cats being treated at a veterinarian's office this week is 5 : 2. Suppose there are 168 dogs and cats sched

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

48 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

Am interesting factoid about ratios:

The ratio $a:b$ can be separated into fractional parts of $\frac{a}{a + b}$ and $\frac{b}{a + b}$ . We need to know the cat part. $\frac{2}{5 + 2} = \frac{2}{7}$ , so that is the fraction part. Then, we multiply this fraction by 168 to get the total number of cats. This number is 48.

The value to increase is keeping A constant and decreasing the value of B

<h3>What are fractions?</h3>

Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers. For instance a.b is a fraction where a and b are integers.

In the fraction a/b, the numerator is and the denominator is b. If the value of the denominator is decreasing the fraction will increase but if the value of the denominator is increasing the fraction will decrease.

Given the expression A + 2/B, the higher the value of B provided such that that A is constant, the higher the expression. Hence the expression that will cause the value to increase is keeping A constant and decreasing the value of B

Select each pair of equivalent numbers. PLS HELP DUE TMR AND I DONT HOW TO SOLVE IT, PLS SHOW HOW U SET IT UP

BaLLatris [955]

The pairs that are equivalent to each other are 40/1000 and 40%, 6/5 and 120%, 1/8 and 12.5% . They are the correct answers because if we divide for example 6/5 , we would get 1.2 and to turn a decimal into a percent we have to move the decimal point 2 times to the right meaning that the percentage would be 120% and you just do that for all! I hope this helped :)!!
