In a proportion there are letters assigned to represent various numbers. a, b, c, and d.

a, b, c, and d are 4 non-zero rational numbers that are terms of proportion.

a/b = c/d  or a:b = c:d

a and d are the end terms or known as the extremes.
b and c are the middle terms or known as the means.

With this information, we can gather that the extremes of the following proportion are 3 and 60.

3/15 = 12/60 ; a/b = c/d
a = 3 ; b = 15 ; c = 12 ; d = 60

3 and 60 are the extremes
15 and 12 are the means

Notice that we can calculate the area of the square and the rectangle separately to get the following:

\begin{gathered} A_1=3\cdot3=9in^2 \\ A_2=9\cdot2=18in^2 \\ \Rightarrow A=A_1+A_2=9+18=27in^2 \end{gathered}

therefore, the total area is 27 in^2

In 1990, the rate of change of the world population was approximately 0.09125 billion per year (or approximately 1 million peopl
babunello [35]

Answer: Option A

P = 5.3 + 0.09125t

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for the initial year, 1990, the population was 5.3 billion.

The exchange rate is 0.09125 billion per year. In other words, each year there are 0.09125 billion more people.

In year 2 there will be 0.09125 * 2 billion people

In year 3 there will be 0.09125 * 3 billion people

In year 4 there will be 0.09125 * 4 billion people

In year t there will be 0.09125 * t billion of people

So the equation that models the number of people that there will be as a function of time is:

P = P_0 + rt

Where P_0 is the initial population

P_0 = 5.3 billion

r is the rate of increase

r = 0.09125 billion per year

finally the equation is:

P = 5.3 + 0.09125t

The correct answer is option A.
