Answer:
242, 900 people
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin, it says that the population grew by 5%.
(241000)(1.00 + 0.05) = <em>population of the city in 2015</em>
(241000)(1.05) = 253050
253050 is the population of the city in 2015. From 2015 to 2020 it fell four percent.
(253050)(1.00 - 0.04) = <em>population of the city in 2020</em>
(253050)(0.96) = 242928
242928 is the exact population of the city. However, it says to round to the nearest hundred. Since 28 is less than 50, then it would round down to 900.
Therefore, the answer would be 242, 900 people.

Answer:
Tyler is correct. The temperature dropped at a rate of about 4° per hour between 4 and 6, while the temperature dropped at about 2.25° per hour between 6 and 10.
Edit: Explanation
The question is asking about which window of time had a <em>faster</em> decline in temperature, not a larger total change in temperature.
In a 2 hour timeframe, the temperature dropped 8°. (4-6 PM)
In a separate 4 hour timeframe, the temperature dropped 9°. (6-10 PM)
To find which window had a faster change in temp, I took the total temperature drop for each timeframe, then divided it by the number of hours each drop took.
8° / 2 = 4° per hour for 4-6 PM
9° / 4 = 2.25° per hour from 6-10 PM
Since the speed at which the temperature dropped per hour was greater from 4-6 PM than 6-10 PM, Tyler was correct.
Answer:
- 892 lb (right)
- 653 lb (left)
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight is in equilibrium, so the net force on it is zero. If R and L represent the tensions in the Right and Left cables, respectively ...
Rcos(45°) +Lcos(75°) = 800
Rsin(45°) -Lsin(75°) = 0
Solving these equations by Cramer's Rule, we get ...
R = 800sin(75°)/(cos(75°)sin(45°) +cos(45°)sin(75°))
= 800sin(75°)/sin(120°) ≈ 892 . . . pounds
L = 800sin(45°)/sin(120°) ≈ 653 . . . pounds
The tension in the right cable is about 892 pounds; about 653 pounds in the left cable.
_____
This suggests a really simple generic solution. For angle α on the right and β on the left and weight w, the tensions (right, left) are ...
(right, left) = w/sin(α+β)×(sin(β), sin(α))
