She already bought "x" presents for him.
The next day, Robin bought "2" more presents for him just in time for his birthday.
When she got home and celebrated his birthday, her beother opened, in total, "9" presents.
--- What is the number of presents that Robin had originally purchased? ---
Triangle Area = .5 * base * height
48 = .5 * (x +4) * x
48 = (.5x + 2) * x
48 = .5x^2 + 2x
.5x^2 + 2x -48 = 0
x = 8
base = 12
Answer:
16 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:
320000 + 5000x
The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:
624000 - 14000x
The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:
320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x
14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000
19000x = 304000
x = 304000 / 19000
x = 16
In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal
