The answer to your selected question is no because they equal different numerical values

7 0

No
in the first equation x is = to 10
in the second equation x is = to 9

I got this by first subtracting 7 from 27. I got 20. then I divided 20 by 2 and got 10 for x

for the second I subracted 1 from 28 and got 27. then I divided that by 3 to get x=9

A city has a population of 250,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 6%. What will the population be after

irinina [24]

Answer:

503,049

Step-by-step explanation:

250,000 × 1.06^12 is the formula.

You take the percentage which is 6% and you add 1 to it.

So, you get 1.06

Then you take the 1.06 and raise it to the number of years which is 12.

1.06^12

Then you multiply that number to the base number which is 250,000 and get 503,049.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

4 blue marbles

Skills needed: Number Theory, Fractions

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The problem tells us that the jar contains marbles that are either red, green, or blue (No Other Color).

It also mentions that $\frac{2}{5} (\frac{4}{10})$ of the marbles are red

and that $\frac{1}{10}$ of the marbles are blue

- The given statement is that 20 marbles are green, and we need to find out the number of blue marbles.

2) We need to first find out the total number of marbles, and then multiply that by $\frac{1}{10}$ to get the # of blue marbles.

---> Given $\frac{4}{10}$ are red and $\frac{1}{10}$ are blue, $1-\frac{1}{10}-\frac{4}{10}$ of the marbles are green (since fractions add up to 1 whole)
