In 19951995​, there were 41 comma 43141,431 shopping centers in a certain country. in 20052005​, there were 48 comma 72948,729.

​(a) write an equation expressing the number y of shopping centers in terms of the number x of years after 19951995. ​(b) when will the number of shopping centers reach 80 comma 00080,000​?

The first thing you should do for this case is to use the following table to perform the equation of a line:
 y x
 41,431 1995
 48,729 2005
 We have then that the line that best fits this data is
 y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 Then, to know in what year the number of shopping centers reaches 80,000 we must replace this number in the equation of the line and clear x:
 80000 = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 Clearing x
 x = (80000 + 1E + 06) / (729.8) = 1479.857495
 nearest whole number
 1480
 This means that after 1480 years, 80000 shopping centers are reached.
 Equivalently, this amount is reached in the year:
 1480 + 1995 = 3475
 In the year 3475
 answer
 (a) y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 (b) In the year 3475

<span>(a) y = 729.8x + 41431
 (b) 80,000 shopping centers in about 2048.

   (a) Since we only have 2 data points, let's create the equation of a line using slope intercept form where y = number of shopping centers and x = number of years since 1995. So the general form of the equation will be:
 y = ax + b

   Let's first calculate a, which is the difference in y divided by the difference in x, so
 (48729 - 41431)/(2005-1995) = 7298/10 = 729.8

   Now we have the equation
 y = 729.8x + b

   Substitute the values for a known pair and solve for b. I'll use the pair (0, 41431). The value 0 represents 0 years after 1995. So
 y = 729.8x + b
 41431 = 729.8*0 + b
 41431 = 0 + b
 41431 = b

   So the desired equation is:
  y = 729.8x + 41431

   (b) To answer this, substitute 80000 for y and then solve for x. So:
  y = 729.8x + 41431
 80000 = 729.8x + 41431
 38569 = 729.8x
 52.84872568 = x
   So the number of shopping centers will reach 80000 52.8 years after 1995, or about 2048.</span>

For the first digit you are choosing from 2 digits
for the second digit you are choosing from 2 digits
for the third digit you are choosing from 2 digits
2*2*2=8
111
110
011
101
000
001
100
010
However......
A number doesn't usually start with a 0 or 0s.
Therefore, if you want 3-digit numbers and not just permutations using 0 and 1, then you must eliminate
011, 000, 001, and 010
Seeing that the first digit can't be 0, you choose from 1, then 2, and then 2 digits again; 1*2*2=4 numbers
You choose which answer best suits your problem.

What expression represents the quotient?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{5x^2+8x+7}{4x}

Divide each term on the numerator by 4x

= \frac{5x^2}{4x} + \frac{8x}{4x} + \frac{7}{4x}

= \frac{5x}{4} + 2 + \frac{7}{4x}
