Answer:
x = 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
x / 1.2 = 15
To isolate x we multiply both sides of ther equation by 1.2:
x = 15 * 1.2
x = 18 (answer).
If the circle is at the origin and (0,4) is a point on the circle then the radius of the circle is:
r^2=0^2+4^2
r^2=16
r=4
so we can check that the other point is four units from the origin and thus also on the circle...
d^2=2^2+6^2
d^2=4+36
d^2=40
since d^2>r^2, (2,6) is outside the circle...
Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage increase of something is often represented in a formula of a format like this:
X=Ar^t
Where X represents the total amount after t years.
A or 87000 in this case represents the starting value, which is this case is the starting population of the town. r or 1.12 represents the percentage increase, if it increases by 12% than the next year has 1.12 times as many people as the previous year so this is represented by 1.12 rather than say 0.12 which would indicate a 88% decrease instead. t is the time, no. of years in this case, that has elapsed since 1996.
This formula basically means that a town population of 87000 increases by 12% for every year of time that elapses.
Hope this helped!
