PLEASE HELP

Mathematics
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Assume that a certain population is P. If the population has decreased 2.8% at the end of one year, this means that the population now is


100%P-2.8%P=97.2%P. Thus a decrease of 2.8% can means a multiplication by 97.2%, which is 97.2/100=0.972.


So, assume the population in 2006 was P. Then the population in 2007 was 


0.972P. Similarly, we can see that the population in 2008 was 0.972(0.972P).


The population in 2009 the population was  0.972(0.972(0.972P)), which is .


Finally, in the end of 2010 the population was .



The decline of the population from 2006 to 2010 was 22,000. This means that 


. Factorizing P we have:


. We can calculate , thus


.



We saw that the population after the n'th year after 2006 was .


2040 is the (2040-2006)=34th year after 2006, so the population in 2040 will be 

                       .





(to calculate : 0.972_*_=*_=*_=*_=*_=, one *_= for each 2)


Thus, the population in 2040 was 0.378*204,842=77,430.

Hope this helps you out . It's alot to read though

In recent year a letter to Europe from the United States cost $0.94 to mail. A letter mailed within United States cost $0.44. Na
Bogdan [553]
3 letters to US = 3*0.94 = 2.82
2 local letters = 2*0.44 =  0.88 
checking: 2.82+0.88 = 3.70

to get rid out of 0.04 cents you have to multiply it by 5. so total number of letters would be 5.

Liz is hiking a trail that is 0.8 miles long. Liz hikes the first 2 tenths of the distance by herself. She hikes the of the way
antoniya [11.8K]
0.6 miles.

Since there is 0.8 miles to hike in total, she hiked 0.2 miles.

To solve, we just easily subtract the amount that Liz hiked from the amount that needs to be hiked.

She hiked 0.2 miles, which means we need to subtract 0.2 from 0.8.

8 - 2 = 6

The answer is 0.6 miles.

Find a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a and the opposite direction of the vector
nasty-shy [4]
The unit vector is given by the following formula:
 a '= (a) / (lal)
 Where,
 a: vector a
 lal: Vector module a
 We are looking for the module:
 lal = root ((- 15) ^ 2 + (8) ^ 2)
 lal = 17
 Same direction:
 a = -15i + 8j
 The unit vector is:
 a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
 Opposite direction:
 a = 15i - 8j
 The unit vector is:
 a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
 Answer:
 
a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a is:
 
a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
 
a unit vector that has the opposite direction of the vector a is:
 
a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
