Answer:

1500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 40% are HIV positive (that's a lot of people), 60% will be HIV negative. All you have to do is find 60% of 2500.

60% of 2500 = 0.6 * 2500 = 6 * 250 = 1500

Hope this helps!

Jimmy has a piece of string that is 6 3/4 inches long, and Sam has a piece of string that is 7 1/2 inches long.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract Jimmys string length from Sam's string length

7 1/2 - 6 3/4

Get a common denominator of 4

7 1/2*2/2 - 6 3/4

7 2/4 - 6 3/4

Borrow 1 ( or 4/4) from the 7

6 4/4 + 2/4 - 6 3/4

6 6/4 - 6 3/4

3/4

What is a / b (2x - 12) = c / d ; x ?

Alex17521 [72]

we are given

$\frac{a}{b} (2x-12)=\frac{c}{d}$

we can solve for x

We can isolate x

step-1: Multiply both sides by b/a

$\frac{b}{a}*\frac{a}{b} (2x-12)=\frac{b}{a}*\frac{c}{d}$

$(2x-12)=\frac{bc}{ad}$

step-2:Add 12 both sides

$(2x-12)+12=\frac{bc}{ad}+12$

$2x=\frac{bc}{ad}+12$

step-3: combine right side

$2x=\frac{bc+12ad}{ad}$

step-4:Divide both sides by 2

$x=\frac{bc+12ad}{2ad}$ ..............Answer

Does the function model exponential growth or decay? f(t)=1/4⋅4^t

yarga [219]

Answer:

This is an exponential decay

Because the base of the exponent is 1/4.4 which is less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

What is exponential growth?

when the base of our exponential is bigger than 1, which means those numbers get bigger.

What is exponential decay?

when the base of our exponential is in between 1 and 0 and those numbers get smaller.
