Answer:

  10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c and s represent the populations of Canyon Falls and Swift Creek, respectively. For time t in years, the respective populations are ...

  c = 22500 -740t

  s = 15200 +1500t

We want to find t when s = 2c.

  s = 2c

  15200 +1500t = 2(22500 -740t)

  2980t = 29800 . . . . . add 1480-15200, simplify

  29800/2980 = t = 10 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

The population of Swift Creek will be double that of Canyon Falls in 10 years.

Kassie recorded the favorite sport of students at her school. She surveyed 800 students. How many more students chose Baseball t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

40 more kids chose baseball over basketball.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to go about this is to use benchmark percentages.

For baseball, 25% of 800 people chose that, so we can do 800/4 to get 200, so 200 students chose baseball

For basketball, we could do 800/5 but that isn't mental math, so we can do 10% of 800 is 80 and 80*2=160. So 40 more kids chose baseball over basketball.
