Answer:

12,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of people that were enrolled last year.

We have been given that enrollment at ELAC decreased by 5%, or 600 people, the year. We are asked to find the number of people that were enrolled last year.

We can set as equation such that 5% of x equals 600.

\frac{5}{100}\cdot x=600

0.05x=600

\frac{0.05x}{0.05}=\frac{600}{0.05}

x=12,000

Therefore, 12,000 people were enrolled last year.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

360 people

Step-by-step explanation:

     x = 0.8x + 72           Subtract 0.8x on both sides

0.2x = 72                  Divide 0.2 on both sides

      x = 360

Given the function graphed below, what is the average rate of change between f(3) and f(7)?
Shkiper50 [21]
Answer: choice D) 20

-------------------------------

Explanation:

Locate 3 on the x axis number line. Draw a vertical line through 3 and this vertical line will cross the parabola at some point P. Mark this point P on the parabola. Then draw a horizontal line from P to the y axis. The horizontal line will land on y = 10. In short, this all shows us that (3,10) is a point on this parabola.

Repeat those steps above, but now for x = 7. You'll see that (7,90) is another point on this parabola.

We need to find the slope of the line through the two points (3,10) and (7,90). The average rate of change from x = 3 to x = 7 is the same as the slope of the line through those two points.

To find the slope, we use the slope formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points, and m is the slope

In this case,
(x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (7,90)
further breaking down to
x1=3
y1=10
x2=7
y2=90
So we'll plug those four pieces of info into the equation and simplifying to get...
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (90 - 10)/(7 - 3)
m = 80/4
m = 20

The slope of the line is 20, so therefore, the average rate of change is 20.
