So 45% of 35 is 16.2 so subtract 16.2 from 36 and you get A 19.2
It means that 15 times another number equals to your equation.
Answer:
the previous population was 62,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
The current population of a city = 83,700
The population of a city has increased by 35% since it was last measured.
We have to calculate the previous population before increasing 35%.
Let the previous population be p
p +(35% × p) = 83,700
p + 0.35p = 83,700
1.35p = 83,700
p =
p = 62,000
Therefore, the previous population was 62,000.
x=2y-2
x=y+3
Substitute the second equation into the first
y+3=2y-2
solve for y
y=5
plug into original
x=y+3=5+3=8 or x=2(5)-2=8
Allentown got 8 ft of snow, Georgetown got 5 ft of snow.
