The temperature at 5 am was -3 degrees
12-15=-3
No, 1/a^b (a^-b) doesn't equal -a^b
Answer:
im sorry im not sure but i think 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, the rate of increase of Canton = 80/7720 = 0.010
The rate of increase of HP = 120/3200 = 0.0375
Apply the formula of compound interest==> A =A'(1+i)^n
The population will be equal when the following equality is satisfied
7720(1+0.01)^n = 3200(1+0.0375)^n
or
7720x1.01^n = 3200x1.0375^n
Divide both sides by 3200 ===>(193/80)x1.01^n=1.0375^n
Let us take a number x
The four consecutive numbers will be
x+1, x+2, x+3
Thus our equation will be
x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 42
4x + 6 = 42
4x = 36
x= 36/4
x= 9
Thus the four numbers are (substitute)
x=9
x+1=9+1=10
x+2=9+2=11
x+3=9+3=12
9,10,11,12
