Answer:

7 years (This answer is to the nearest year)

Step-by-step explanation:

The way you could work this out is by trial and error. 11 % a year means that its population increases by 4400 annually. 40,000 X 1.11^1 gives you the amount it would be after one year (44000). I got the 1.11 because of the percentage (0.11) plus the amount you need to do percentage increase (1). Then all you do is keep on going up till you hit the number you need (80,000) after about 7 years the total would have hit 80,000 and would have actually went past it (83046)

15. Before oil is added to a certain road surface material, the other ingredients are mixed. The mixture contains
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

sand = 3450 pounds

3/4 inch stones =6750 pounds

1 inch stones =4800 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mixture composition is :

45% three-quarter inch stones

32% inch stones and

sand for balance

The percent here is by mass of material used.

Weight of mixture is 15,000 pounds before oil addition.

Use the percent by weight for the two types of stones and calculate real values in pounds

Formula to apply is:

Mass percent = (mass of a material/ total mass of mixture) * 100

For 3/4 inch stones it will be:

0.45= \frac{x}{15000} *100\\\\0.45=\frac{x}{150} \\0.45*150=x\\x=6750

The 3/4 inch stones weigh 6750 pounds

The 1 inch stones will be

32/100 * 15000 =4800

The 1 inch stones weigh = 4800 pounds

Total for the two items : 4800+6750 =11550 pounds

The sand used weighs : 15000 - 11550 = 3450 pounds

12 times a number plus 26 greater than 6
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:I am a little confused by your wording but I am assuming the question is 12 times what is 26 greater than 6

The answer would be 2.66666666667 which sound incorrect but multiply by 12 and you get 32 and 6 + 26= 32
