The property displayed here is the distributive property.
If you have a variable or unknown number inside or outside of parentheses, you can distribute it to each term and add the terms together, and it will remain true.
Example:
4(x + 5)
After distributing, it'll look like this:
4x + 20
Answer:
X=the smaller
y=the larger
The bigger of two numbers is four more than the smaller, then:
y=x+4
one more than twice the smaller is the same as the larger, then
1+2x=y
We have the following system of equations:
y=x+4
y=2x+1
We solve this system by equal values method:
x+4=2x+1
x-2x=1-4
-x=-3
x=3
We find the value of "y"now:
y=x+4
y=3+4
y=7
the values of x and y are:
x=3
y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is one . 3 times 2 is 6. And you know 6+1 =7
This is an exponential growth/decay problem...
F=Ir^t, F=final value, I=initial value, r=rate, t=time, in this case:
F=I(1.03)^t and they just want to know when F=2I so
2=1.03^t take natural log of both sides...
ln2=t*ln1.03
t=ln2/(ln1.03)
t≈23.45
So it will take approximately 23.45 years for the population to double..
1990+23.45=2013.45
So during the year of 2013 the population will have double from its 1990 level.
