Distribute
remember a(b+c)=ab+ac

we can actually divide both sides by x
5(4x+8)=4(6x-10)
distribute
20x+40=24x-40
minus 20x both sides
40=4x-40
add 40 both sides
80=4x
divide by 4
20=x

5(4x+8)=4(6x-10)
distribute 5 and 4

20x+40=24x-40
Add 40 to each side

20x+80=24x
Subtract 20x from each side

80=4x
Divide by 4 on each side

x=20, is your answer

The function for finding the population growth in Liverpool is given by f(t) = 35(1.2)t. What is the initial population? 0.2 35

jasenka [17]

T - would be time
35 - initial population
1.2 - growing anual ration

So for ex if you want to know how much it will grow in 10 yrs:

f(10) = 35(1.2)10
= 42*10
= 420 people after 10 yrs

True or false 120% of a whole number is always greater than the number? and why?

Stells [14]

I can only use math to explain it. What is 100%?
100% = $\frac{100}{100}$
percent means per 100.
so 120% = 120/100 = 1.2
120% of a whole number. For example 120% * 10 = $\frac{120}{100} * 10$ = 12
is it greater than 10.
