Answer:
well if the max grade he could get was 100 then you need to find 15% of 100 which is 15, after that add 15 to 80 and you get 95.
his grade for exam 2 was 95
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 100 = 15
80 + 15 = 95
6p+p+2-3=8p-8
7p-1=8p-8
1=1p-8
7=1p
p=7
The population of a town has approximately doubled every 17 years since 1950.
the equation P= where Po is the population of the town in 1950, is used to model the population, P, of the town t years after 1950.
When t=17 yrs
P=2
for 1 year
The equation becomes
P = -------------(1)
Our original equation is
----------------------------------(2)
equating expression 1 and 2
Cancelling from both sides we get
t/17=k
⇒k=t/17 is the solution.
Given:
Consider the equation is
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
We have,
Using properties of exponents, we get
On comparing both sides, we get
Add 16 on both sides.
Multiply both sides by -1.
Therefore, the value of x is 8.
