Answer:

The standard unemployment rate is of 0.0794 = 7.94%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard unemployment rate, as a proportion, is the number of unemployed people divided by the size of the labor force.

In this question:

Labor force: 189 million

Number of unemployed people: 15 million

What is the standard unemployment rate?

15/189 = 0.0794

The standard unemployment rate is of 0.0794 = 7.94%.

Harpreet, Sukhpreet and Komalpreet are three sisters. Sukhpreet is x years old. Harpreet is 3 years older than Sukhpreet. Komalp
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Harpreet        = x + 3

Sukhpreet     = x

Komalpreet   = 2*(x + 3)

Average Age = 15

Equation

[(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15                  Multiply both sides by 3

Solution

3 [(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ] / 3 = 15 * 3         Combine

 [(x + 3) + x + 2*(x + 3) ]       =   45             Remove the brackets

x + 3 + x + 2x + 6                 =   45             Combine like terms

4x + 9 = 45                                                 Subtract 9 from both sides

4x + 9 - 9 = 45 - 9                                       Combine

4x = 36                                                         Divide by 4

4x/4 = 36/4

x = 9

Answer

Harpreet is  x+ 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

Log (3x+1) - Log (2x+5)= 1​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

\huge \red { \boxed{x =  -  \frac{49}{17}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

log(3x + 1) - log(2x + 5) = 1 \\  \\ log  \: \frac{3x + 1}{2x + 5}  = log \: 10..( \because \: log \: 10 = 1) \\  \\  \frac{3x + 1}{2x + 5}  = 10 \\ \\  3x + 1 = 20x + 50 \\ 3x - 20x = 50 - 1 \\  \\  - 17x = 49 \\  \\ x =  \frac{49}{ - 17}  \\  \\  \huge \purple{ \boxed{x =  -  \frac{49}{17}}}  \\

Issac tosses a quarter off of a bridge, creating the shape of a parabola. The parabola can be represented by the equation h=-16t
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the equation representing the parabola is expressed as

h = -16t² - 4t + 20

c) to determine the height after 25 seconds, we would substitute 25 for t into the given equation. It becomes

h = -16(25)² - 4(25) + 20

h = - 10000 - 100 + 20

h = - 10080

d) when the coin lands on the ground, the height would be 0. Therefore,

-16t² - 4t + 20 = 0

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4, it becomes

- 4t² - t + 5 = 0

- 4t² - 5t + 4t + 5 = 0

- t(4t + 5) + 1(4t + 5) = 0

- t + 1 = 0 or 4t + 5 = 0

t = 1 or t = - 5/4

Since t cannot be negative, then t = 1 second
