A) Now look, in the year 2000, the population is 118,000
In the year 2006 is 138,000
To find the percent change |Original Amt - New Amt| -------------------------------- x100
Original Amt
So for this question you would do 118,00 - 138,000 (ignore the negativesss)
and you get -20,000 (ignore the negatives) and then you get 20,000
Now, you have to do 20,000 divided by 118,000 x 100
20,000 divided by 118,000 and you get 0.169491525
Now you have to multiply 0.169491525 by 100
0.169491525 x 100 = 16.9491525
Round this and you get a 16.9% change.
b) To predict the population in 2012 you will have to do 138,000 + 16.9%
To calculate this you have to do this:
138,000 x 0.169 = 23322
Now add 23,322, to 138,000 and you get 161,322.
A) 16.9%
B) 161,322
hope this helped :)
Answer:
n = 15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(4+n)/(43+n) =1/3
3(4+n)= 1*(43 + n)
12 + 3n = 43 + n
3n - n = 43 - 12
2n = 31
n = 31/2= 15.5
Answer:
m = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
x = 4
y = 6m - 2
a = 8
b = 5
Required:
Value of m
SOLUTION:
x and y are segments of a chord divided when it intersects another chord that also has segments a and b.
According to the Intersecting chords theorem, 
Thus:

Solve for m





The value of m = 2
You can double the product of 9 and 4 to get to the product of 9 and 8
