Find the slope of the line connecting (1990,435000) and (2005,482300):

        482300-435000        47300
m = ----------------------- = ---------------- = 3153/yr (approx)
          2005 - 1990                15 yr

Use the point-slope formula to find the equation of this str. line:

y-435000 = (3153/yr)(x-1990)

The year 2020 is 30 years after 1990.  Thus, the expected pop in 2020 is

given by     y-435000 = 3153(30) = 94590, so that y = 529590.

QveST [7]

Answer:

$13,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest = principal × rate × time

principal= $9000

Rate= 12/100=0•12

Time=5years

Simple interest =PRT

= 9000× 0•12 × 5

= 5400

Total amount to be paid = 9000 + 5400

= $13400

Zepler [3.9K]
Sum means addition 
negative 18 means -18
a number can be x
Sum of negative 18 and x should be 11
thus the equation is

Can someone please explain this to me I’m so confused and I have a quiz on this tomorrow
Ludmilka [50]
                               x^2 = 16/100
We must solve for x by taking the square root of both sides.
But imagine x^2 = 9. x = 3 is a solution because 3^2 = 9. But x = -3 is also a solution because (-3)^2 = 9. So we need to add the plus and minus sign to account for all of our solutions.
                     √x^2 = √(16/100)
We square root both sides to remove the exponent 2 on x. Then
                         x = ±√(16/100)
Then we have to use a Property of Radicals which is √(x/y) = √(x) / √(y).
Then the square root of 16 is 4 and the square root of 100 is 10. 4/10 is 2/5 simplified.
