Answer:

7,228,202%

Step-by-step explanation:

Population at first census in 1979 was 3929

If the Population had increased to 284,000,000 by 2000, the population increase will be;

284,000,000-3929

= 283,996,071

%increase in population = increment/initial population×100%

= 283,996,071/3929×100%

= 7,228,202%

This means that the population has increased by 7,228,202%

4/y+2 - 9/y-2 = 9/y^2-4
Evgesh-ka [11]
Going off the idea that this is 4/(y+2) - 9/(y-2) = 9/(y^2-4), let's first rewrite y^2-4 in the form of a^2-b^2, where a=y and b=2.
y/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/(y^2-2^2)
Now, use difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
4/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/((y+2)(y-2))
Multiply both sides by the Least Common Denominator: (y+2)(y-2)
4(y-2)-9(y+2)=9
Then keep on simplifying until you get your answer
-5y-26=9
-5y=9+26
-5y=35
y=35/-5
y=-7
Yay! Our answer is y=-7!

A number is multiplied by 16, and that product is added to 8. The sum is equal to the product of 4 and 10. Find the number.
Ymorist [56]

Your sum is 4 times 10, or 40. We want to end up with 40. Subtract 8 because you added 8 before to work backwards. You get 32. Divide by 16 because the opposite of multiplication is division. You would get 2.

The mean of 8 math quiz scores is 88. If the first seven scores are 85,70,92,85,91,100, and 88, what is the eighth quiz score? U
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

93

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a list of numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by the count of the numbers in the list.

In this case, representing the eighth score with x, the mean is (611+x)/8

Solving for the mean:

88=(611+x)/8

Multiply both sides by 8

8*88=611+x

704=611+x

704-611=x

x=93
