Let the initial population = P
increase in population = 35%
35% of P = 35/100 P = 0.35P
P + 0.35P = 91800
1.35P = 91800
P = 91800/1.35
P = 68,000
Previous population was 68,000
Its a rational number because whole numbers dont consist of decimals nor fractions
Decimal: 0.015625 or as fraction= 1/64. Glade I could help!
Answer:
y = (- 7/8)*x - 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
One point is (-4,2) and the other one is (4,-5)
The first step is to find the slope.
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
- y2 = 2
- y1 = -5
- x2 = -4
- x1 = 4
Solution
<em><u>Find the slope</u></em>
m = (2 - - 5) / (-4 - 4)
m = (2 + 5) / (- 8)
m = 7 / - 8
So far what you have is y = (-7/8)x + b
Find the y intercept.
Use (4,-5)
y = (-7/8)x + b
x = 4
y = - 5
-5 = (-7/8) * 4 + b
-5 = -7/2 + b
-5 = - 3.5 + b Add 3.5 to both sides.
-5 + 3.5= - 3.5+ 3.5 + b
- 1.5 = b
