Answer: Population in 200 = 281 million.

Population in 2010 = 308 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the population in 2000 ( in millions).

Given : According to the report “Population Distribution and Change: 2000 to 2010” from the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. population increased by 27.3 million people from 2000 to 2010.

This was a 9.7% increase.

∵ 9.7%=0.097

then, we have 0.097x=27.3

Divide both sides , by 0.097, we get

x=281.443298969\approx281 [Rounded to nearest million]

Hence, the population in 200 = 281 million.

Then, the population in 2010=281+27.3=308.3\approx308 million  [Rounded to nearest million]

1. Find 3 equivalent fraction for the following: a) 5/6 b) 7/11 c) 9/7
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find equivalent fractions, multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same table.

a) 5/6

\frac{5*2}{6*2}=\frac{10}{12}\\\\\frac{5*3}{6*3}=\frac{15}{18}\\\\\frac{5*4}{6*4}=\frac{20}{24}

b) 7/11

\frac{7*3}{11*3}=\frac{21}{33}\\\\\frac{7*4}{11*4}=\frac{28}{44}\\\\\frac{7*5}{11*5}=\frac{35}{55}

c)9/7

\frac{9*2}{7*2}=\frac{18}{14}\\\\\frac{9*5}{7*5}=\frac{45}{35}\\\\\frac{9*10}{7*10}=\frac{90}{70}

Solve the following system of equations by graphing and select the correct answer below:
JulijaS [17]

Answer: option c

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of each line.

To find the x-intercept, substitute y=0 into the equation and solve for "x".

To find the y-intercept, substitute x=0 into the equation and solve for "y".

- For the first equation:

x-intercept

4x + 3y = 29\\\\4x + 3(0)= 29\\\\4x=29\\\\x=\frac{29}{4}\\\\x=7.25

y-intercept

4x + 3y = 29\\\\4(0) + 3y = 29\\\\3y=29\\\\y=\frac{29}{3}\\\\y=9.66

Graph a line that passes through the points (7.25, 0) and (0, 9.66)

- For the second equation:

x-intercept

2x - 3y = 1 \\\\2x - 3(0) = 1 \\\\2x=1\\\\x=0.5

y-intercept

2x - 3y = 1\\\\2(0) - 3y = 1\\\\-3y=1\\\\y=-0.33

Graph a line that passes through the points (0.5, 0) and (0, -0.33)

Observe the graph attached. You can see that point of intersection of the lines is (5,3); then this is the solution of the system. Therefore:

x=5\\y=3
