A. The ten-thousands place.
If you write it out its Eight hundred seventy six thousand, five hundred forty three.

When solving this equation you get x = -3.
To solve this, simply follow the order of operations for solving.
----> start by dividing both sides by 5
-----> Now you can transform the front side of the equation to use negative exponents.
Since both x and -3 are the powers of x, we can eliminate the 7 and just make the exponents equal.
-3 = x
We can write an equation of this, with p representing the unknown population. We know that 90% of the population owns cars:
90% * p
We also know that 4761 people own cars, which is the same as the above expression, so we write:
90% * p = 4761.
From there, you just divide both sides by 90%, or 0.9
p = 4761/0.9 = 5290
The population is 5290 people.
1) 5
2) zero
3) <span>Step 1: 12x + 15 = 12
Step 2: 12x = −3
4) 10
5) 2
This took me a long time to do so I hope this was beneficial :)) !! (btw I am absolutely sure about every answer. I checked my work plenty of times :)</span>
