Let's call your number n. Twice your number is 2n. The product of your number and twice your number (so n multiplied by 2n) is 128.
Set up an equation:
n × 2n = 128
2n² = 128
Divide both sides by 2:
n² = 64
Square root both sides to isolate n:
n = 8
The question asks for half your number, so just half 8:
8 ÷ 2 = 4.
Half your number is 4.
Answer:
3 years
Explanation:
Even there was a dry year in 1979, the area received almost the normal amount of rain in 1980.
In 1981 however, the year was quite dry, with rainfalls in drop of almost 20%, that began one of the most important drought in the history of Brazil.
In 1982, rainfalls were down by 30% and it got even worse.
In 1983, the rainfalls were down by about 35%, essentially destroying all the agriculture system that had been severely damaged by the two previous years.
In 1984, rain came back a bit higher than its traditional levels, and in 1985, the area was flooded by rain surpassing the average by 60%!
Nonrenewable resources either don't replenish themselves, or don't do so in a timely fashion that keeps up with our demand. Therefore, we need to cut our consumption to prolong the resources supply.
