The answer is 31,500.
Let's clarify some things :
1% of 45,000 is 450
Maybe you're wondering why , it's actually very simple .
Just move the decimal to the left once if you want to find 10% , move the decimal twice if you want to find 1%.
We now that 1% equals 450. Then 2% equals to....
Well just add another 1% .
450 + 450 or 450 times 2
Which equals 900.
Now we want to find what's the population after 15 years.
900 times 15= 13,500
But that's not the answer ....
That's what is decreasing.
45,000 - 13,500= 31,500
That's why the answer is 31,500.
I feel like it would be rational because 0/12 = 0, and 0 is a rational number.
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope: change in y divided by change in x
y2-y1/x2-x1
-11-(-5)/4-(-2)
-11+5/4+2
-6/6
-1
Answer:
x ∈ {-5, -1}
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's the solution using the quadratic formula:

The real zeros are -5 and -1.
_____
There are many ways to check your answer. One of them is to look at the given quadratic, which has no changes of sign in its coefficients. (They are all positive.) That means there can be no positive real roots, so already you know that x=0.5 won't work.
Also, the constant in the quadratic is the product of the roots, For your roots, their product is -7/4, so even multiplying by 4 (the leading coefficient in the given quadratic), you don't get anything like 20.
