Shelley compared the number of oak trees to the number of maple trees as part of a study about hardwood trees in a woodlot. She

counted 9 maple trees to every 5 oak trees. Later in the year there was a big problem and many trees died. New trees were planted to make sure there was the same number of trees as before the big problem. The new ratio of the number of maple trees to the number of oak trees is 3:11. After planting new trees, there were 132 oak trees. How many more maple trees were in the woodlot before the big problem than after the bug problem? Explain.

Try this option:
1. according to the condition new ratio of maple trees (m.t.) is 3:11 and number of o.t. is 132. It means
\frac{3}{11} = \frac{x_1}{132} \ =\ \textgreater \  \ x_1=3*132/11=36(m.t.) number of m.t. after the bug.
2. total number of trees after bug problem is 132+36=168. According the condition it is the same number as before the big problem. Using this,
3. 5x+9x=168 - total number of the trees before big problem, where 5x is number of o.t. and 9x is number of m.t. 
x=168/14=12 and
4. ⇒ 9x=9*12=108 m.t. before the big problem.
answer: 36 m.t. and 108 m.t.
P.S. before the big problem 108 m.t. and 5*12=60 o.t., after the bug 36 m.t. and 132 o.t.

If there were 310 million people in the United States, what was the daily consumption rate in barrels per person in the United S
bija089 [108]

The daily consumption rate in the United States will be 10 barrels per person.

Your question is incomplete as you didn't provide the total barrels, therefore, an overview of the answer will be given. In their case, let's assume that the total barrels is given as 3.1 billion.

Therefore, the barrels per person will be:

= Total barrels / Population

= 3.1 billion / 310 million

= 10 barrels per person.

In conclusion, the correct option is 10 barrels per person.

Write a slope-intercept equation for a line perpendicular to f(x) = −2x + 4 and
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

y =  \frac{1}{2} x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Slope-intercept form</u>

y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

f(x)= -2x +4

Let's rewrite this function into an equation, in the slope-intercept form.

y= -2x +4

Slope= -2

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.

Let the slope of the perpendicular line be m.

m(-2)= -1

m= ½

y= ½x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates into the equation.

When x= -4, y= -1,

-1= ½(-4) +c

-1= -2 +c

c= -1 +2

c= 1

Thus, the equation of the line is y= ½x +1.
