When we look at ratios, we use for : against and add both to get the total in the set. therefore 8+3 = 11. divide the 22000 fans into 11 sections we have each section worth 2000 fans. The number of blue sox fans would be 3 x 2000 or 6000 fans with the remaining 16000 being baron fans.
This is asking you to solve the equation ...
... 27 = 3^x
You can use logarithms to find
... log(27) = x·log(3)
... log(27)/log(3) = x = 1.43136376.../0.47712125...
... x = 3
Or, you can use your knowledge of small cubes and match exponents.
... 3^3 = 3^x
... 3 = x
The answer is 20.64 dollars
If we call y the height of the plane, we know when the time (x) is 0, the height is 30000. So let's write that in:
y = 30000 + (0)
Then, for every increase of a minute (x increases by 1), the height reduces by 2000. This can be written as:
y = 30000 - 2000x
Using what we know about y = mx+c equations, the slope of the line is -2000, and the y-intercept is (0, 30000).
