Answer:
I'm not entirely sure what the question is but every thing under 12.5 is closer to 12, everything 12.5 and upwards like 12.87 would be closer to 13
Answer:
Please mark me brainliest!!!!!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Multiply each by 5, then make any necessary conversions to the other units of measurement (ie. gallon, quart, etc)
30 gallons x 5= 150 gallons
3 quarts x 5= 15 quarts
1 pint x 5= 5 pints
Step 2:
CONVERSION
1 gallon=4 quarts
1 gallon= 8 pints
1 quart= 2 pints
GALLONS: 150 gallons
QUARTS:
=15 quarts ÷ # quarts in gallon
=15/4= 3 gallons 3 quarts
PINTS:
=5 pints ÷ # pints in quart
=5/2= 2 quarts 1 pints
TOTALS:
150 gallons
3 gallons 3 quarts
2 quarts 1 pint
Since we have 5 additional quarts, and we know that 4 quarts=1 gallon, we need to convert again.
=3 quarts + 2 quarts
=5 quarts ÷ # quarts in gallon
=5/4 = 1 gallon 1 quart
FINAL TOTALS
GALLONS: 150 + 3 + 1= 154 gallons
QUARTS: 1 quart
PINTS: 1 pints
At the end of the zeroth year, the population is 200.
At the end of the first year, the population is 200(0.96)¹
At the end of the second year, the population is 200(0.96)²
We can generalise this to become at the end of the nth year as 200(0.96)ⁿ
Now, we need to know when the population will be less than 170.
So, 170 ≤ 200(0.96)ⁿ
170/200 ≤ 0.96ⁿ
17/20 ≤ 0.96ⁿ
Let 17/20 = 0.96ⁿ, first.
log_0.96(17/2) = n
n = ln(17/20)/ln(0.96)
n will be the 4th year, as after the third year, the population reaches ≈176
