So each foot is 12 inches so to remove 8 feet to get 12 in you need to remove 8 times 12 inches total or 96 in and each cut removes 1/8 in so times 96 by 8 and get 768 total cuts
Answer: After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Sharon is conducting research on two species of birds at a bird sanctuary.
The number of birds of species A is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

The number of birds of species B is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

To plot the above function, first find points by which they are passing.
For species A, At x=0 , 
At x=2 , 
Similarly find more points and plot curve on graph.
For species A, At x=0 , 
At x=2 , 
Plot a line with the help of these two points.
Now, from the graph the intersection of curve (for A) and line (for B) is at (7,140) which tells that After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.
The answer for j box is 22 and for k boxs 15
154.35 - 10.37 = 143.98
143.98 - 27.83 = 116.15
10.37 = 116.15x
x = 0.0893
Change x to percent form to get 8.93% tax rate.
