Miguel runs 6 miles in 55 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 44 minutes

2 answers:

8 0

You can write this in a proportion way: 6/55 = x/44.
Multiply both sides by 11 to get rid of the 55 and 44: 6/5 = x/4
Now, multiply both sides by 20: 5x = 24. x = 4.8

Therefore, he can run 4.8 miles in 44 minutes.

Speed = Distance/Time 6/55
Distance = Speed × Time
6/55 × 44

4.8 miles

The population of West Algebra can be modeled by the equation

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

65.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the population of West Algebra can be modeled by the equation

P = 30. 1.04^T

If T is the number of years since 2000 and P is the population in millions, in 2020, T = 2020 - 2000 = 20

Substitute T = 20 into the expression and get T

P = 30. 1.04^20

P = 30(2.1911)

P = 65.73

Hence the amount of people that will be there in 2020 is 65.7million people

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The statement is correct

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth function is equal to

$y=a(1+r)^x$

where

y is the area covered by the plant in percentage

x is the time in years since 2000

r is the rate of change

a is the initial value

In this problem we have

$r=200\%=200/100=2$

$a=0.2\%$

substitute the values

$y=0.2(1+2)^x$

$y=0.2(3)^x$

In the year 2005

$x=2005-2000=5\ years$

substitute the value of x in the exponential function

$y=0.2(3)^5=48.6\%$

48.6% is about 50%

therefore

The statement is correct
