All you need to do is 8 divided by 6. When you do so you get: 1.3 which could also be written as 1 3/8.

So each person gets 1 whole piece and 3/8 of another piece.

An oil refinery is located on the north bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the ref
Deffense [45]
To minimize the cost, we take the straight distance from the refinery to the other side of the river as 2 km. Also, the 7 km will be the distance that has to be traveled by the pipeline in land. The total cost, C, is therefore,
               total cost =   (2 km)($800,000/km) + (7 km)($400,000 /km)
                    total cost = $4,400,000
Thus, the total cost of the pipeline is approximately $4,400,000.00.

A. Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

B.  Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

C. Increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here, we have  number of employees in a company has been growing exponentially by 10% each year. So , If we have population as x in year 2019 , an increase of 10% in population in 2020 as  x + \frac{x}{100}\times10 which is equivalent to \frac{11x}{10}.

<u>A.</u>

For each month: We have 12 months in a year and so, distributing 10% in 12 months would be like \frac{10}{12}  = 0.84 . ∴ Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

<u>B.</u>

In every 3 months: We have , 12 months in a year , in order to check for every 3 months  \frac{12}{3} = 4 and Now, Population increase in every 3 months is \frac{10}{4}  = 2.5.  ∴ Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

<u>C.</u>

In every 20 months: We have , 12 months in a year in which increase in population is 10% . Left number of moths for which we have to calculate factor of increase in population is 20-12 = 8. For 1 month , there is 0.84% increase in population ∴ For 8 months , 8 × 0.84 = 6.72 %.

So , increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.
