Let's make an equation to show how to get how many people were in 105,000.
But, with a decrease, you have to decrease it from 100.
100-12.5
87.5
So it will be 87.5 of what it was previously. Now let's get to the equation.
.875x=105,000
Let's divide each side.
105,000÷.875
120,000
Let's check if this was a 12.5% decrease.
120,000×0.125
15,000
120,000-15,000
105,000
So the population of 2010 was 120,000 people.

8 + (-10) just confused lol
grin007 [14]
8+(-10) is like 10-8 except backwards so how i do some problems is like that and then add a negative sign; so say if i were doing 8+(-10), i would do 10-8 which equals 2 and then since 10 is bigger than 8 and it’s a negative number, i would put -2 as my answer

HELP ME WITH 16 & 17
damaskus [11]

__Data__

The equilateral's lengths are all the same

Also if AB = AD = BD = CD that would mean all those sides have the exact same length

Answers and Explanations

15A. BCD has 2 acute angles and one obtuse angle, so this is an Obtuse Triangle

15B. If beforementioned = 5 cm

Then the perimeter is 5cm x 3 = 15cm

15C. ABC is a Right Triangle  

16. abcdef. Measure the angles using a protractor

17. The shortest side of ABC is AB which is 5cm, the longest is AC which is 10cm

Shortest side: Longest side

5cm:10cm

1:2 is the ratio

HELP ASAP<br> Find the 15th term or the geometric sequence 7, -21, 63,
mihalych1998 [28]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

33480783

<h2><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h2>

<u>Finding the Common Ratio:</u>

We know that the formula for the common ratio of a GP is:

r = aₙ / (aₙ₋₁)        <em>(Where n is any integer)</em>

<em>replacing the values, taking n=2</em>

r = -21 / 7

r = -3

<u>Solving for the 15th Term:</u>

We know that the Formula for the nth term of a GP:

G(n) = a * r ⁿ⁻¹     <em>(where a is the first term and r is the common ratio)</em>

<em>replacing the values (taking n = 15 since we need the 15th term)</em>

G(15) = 7 * (-3)¹⁴

G(15) = 33480783

Hence, the 15th term of the given GP is 33480783

City code says you need to have a total of at least 54 toilet stalls, but each bathroom can only have 6 stalls. How many bathroo
Lady bird [3.3K]

City code says you need to have a total of at least 54 toilet stalls, but each bathroom can only have 6 stalls.

So, Let the number of bathrooms to be built be = x

Number of toilet stalls needed = 54

Number of stalls each bathroom can have = 6

So, the number of bathrooms to be built are =

6(x)=54

x=\frac{54}{6}

x=9

Hence, one must build 9 bathrooms with 6 stalls each.
