There are 4 sticks, you pick up one stick. How many sticks are left

2 answers:

6 0

There are 3 sticks because:

4 sticks is the total and when you take away 1 stick, it is

4 - 1, which equals 3 sticks

So, the answer is 3 sticks are left.

Question: If u are in high school, why did you ask this question? You already know 4-1=3. Im guessing it was either a joke, or u were helping other people get points. If it is the second one, thx!!

There would be three sticks left because you need to subtract one from four which gives you three
4-1=3

The following table shows the estimated populations and annual growth rates for four countries in the year 2000. Find the expect

Liula [17]

Answer:

After 25 years the population will be:

Australia: 22271200
China: 1580220878
Mexico: 157380127
Zaire: 112794819

Step-by-step explanation:

Growth rate problem that has a growth rate proportional to the population size can be solved using the equation:

P(t) = P₀eʳᵗ

t is your unit of time. It could be days, or hours, or minutes. It changes depending on each problem. In this problem, t is measured in years because you're jumping from 2000 to 2025. Years just makes the most sense to measure that leap in time.

P(t) is the population at time t. An example in this problem could be P(20) would be the population 20 years after the initial count. or maybe P(12) would be the population 12 years after the initial count. or P(0) would be the initial count of the population.

P₀ is the initial population at P(0)
r is the growth rate. Don't forget to convert the percentage to its decimal form

Now that everything is set out, lets use the equation to solve for our answer.

P(t) = P₀eʳᵗ

Australia:

$P(t)=(19169000)e^{(0.006)t}$

after 25 years

$P(25)=(19169000)e^{(0.006)(25)}=22271200.6$

China:

$P(t) = (1261832000)e^{(.009)t}$

after 25 years:

$P(25)=(1261832000)e^{(.009)(25)}=1580220878$

Mexico:

$P(t) = (100350000)e^{(0.018)t}$

after 25 years:

$P(25)=(100350000)e^{(0.018)(25)}=157380127.8$

Zaire:

$P(t) = (51965000)e^{(0.031)t}$

after 25 years:

$P(25)=(51965000)e^{(0.031)(25)}=112794819.9$

How would you use proportional relationships in real life situations? Provide an example.

Shkiper50 [21]

proportional relationship in our everyday life: When we put gas in our car, there is a relationship between the number of gallons of fuel that we put in the tank and the amount of money we will have to pay. In other words, the more gas we put in, the more money we'll pay.

Evaluate the surface integral S F · dS for the given vector field F and the oriented surface S. In other words, find the flux of

slega [8]

Let r(x,y) = (x, y, 9 - x^2 - y^2)

So, dr/dx x dr/dy = (2x, 2y, 1)

So, integral(S) F * dS
= integral(x in [0,1], y in [0,1]) (xy, y(9 - x^2 - y^2), x(9 - x^2 - y^2)) * (2x, 2y, 1) dy dx
= integral(x in [0,1], y in [0,1]) (2x^2y + 18y^2 - 2x^2y^2 - 2y^4 + 9x - x^3 - xy^2) dy dx
= integral(x in [0,1]) (x^2 + 6 - 2x^2/3 - 2/5 + 9x - x^3 - x/3) dx
= integral(x in [0,1]) (28/5 + x^2/3 + 26x/3 - x^3) dx
= 28/5 + 40/9 - 1/4
= 1763/180
