Answer:
a1 = 2
d = 3
an = 2 + (n - 1) * 3
a7 = 20
a59 = 176
Steps:
a1 is the initial value (when n equals 1), and since there are 2 crosses, it is 2.
d is the added value to each amount of crosses. And since the second amount is 5 and the third amount is 8, we can determine that each n is adding 3 crosses, therefore making d = 3.
The equation is simply plugging in the values for a1 and d.
A7 is simply plugging in 7 for n in the equation and solving for it. So;
a7 = 2 + (7 - 1) * 3
a7 = 2 + 6 * 3
a7 = 2 + 18
a7 = 20
And same thing as the last for 59 except substitute 59 in for where you put 7;
a59 = 2 + (59 - 1) * 3
a59 = 2 + 58 * 3
a59 = 2 + 174
a59 = 176
This should be the answer
y= 7/4x + 14
Answer:
≈ 13.98%
Step-by-step explanation:
As the total population is 5769 in the initial period, you must find the percentage that repesents 4963 that is the expected population.
4963/5769=0.8602
Then you multiply it by 100 to transform it into percentage
0.8602*100=86.02%
Then it's just necesary to subtract that from 100% and that numbers is the percentage of decrease
100% - 86.02% = 13.98%
Also you can say that is approximately 14%
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
first option, as the decrease percentage is applicated on a greater number than the original
e.g.
A
a= 10
B
10 + 50% = 15
15 - 50% = 7,5
A will be greater then B by 25%
