So we're given the information that 350 is 70% of "x".

So let's make "x" the total amount of attempted passes.

We can re-write 70% like this: 70/100.

This means that 70/100 * x = 350.

Solve:

70/100x = 350.

Multiply 10 on both sides to get normal number:

70/100x * 10 = 350 * 10.

700/100x = 3500

7x = 3500

Divide by 7:

7x/7 = 3500/7

x = 500

How much would $400 be worth after 6 years if it was invested at 2% interest compounded annually

Alexxx [7]

P=400 (your amount invested)
r=.02 (rate as a decimal)
n=1 (number of times compounded per year, annually meaning 1)
t=6 (number of years invested)

you must follow orders of operations when you plug these things in your calculator.
1st step) do .02/1 to get 0.2 then add 1 to get 1.02. raise this to (1*6)and you get roughly 1.126, now multiply this by 400 to get answer D 450.46.

Check that x=2 and y=5 is a solution of both equations below:<br> X+2y=12<br> 3x+6y=36 *

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 2 and y = 5 into the left side of the equations and if equal to the right side then they are a solution.

x + 2y = 2 + 2(5) = 2 + 10 = 12 ← True

3x + 6y = 3(2) + 6(5) = 6 + 30 = 36 ← True

Thus x = 2, y = 5 is a solution to both equations

The population of Ohio will be 10 million in the year 1970

The population growth of Ohio is represented by the function:

$P(t)=\frac{12.79}{1+2.402e^{-}0.0309t}$

P is the population in millions

t is the number of years since 1900

To find the year that the population of Ohio will be 10 million, substitute P = 10 into the function P(t) and solve for t

$10=\frac{12.79}{1+2.402e^{-}0.0309t}\\\\10(1+2.402e^{-}0.0309t)=12.79\\\\1+2.402e^{-}0.0309t=\frac{12.79}{10} \\\\1+2.402e^{-}0.0309t=1.279\\\\2.402e^{-}0.0309t=1.279-1\\\\2.402e^{-}0.0309t = 0.279\\\\e^{-}0.0309t =\frac{0.279}{2.402} \\\\e^{-}0.0309t =0.116\\\\-0.0309t=ln0.116\\\\-0.0309t=-2.154\\\\t=\frac{-2.154}{-0.0309} \\\\t=69.7$

t = 70 years (to the nearest whole number)

70 years after 1900 will be 1970

Therefore, the population of Ohio will be 10 million in the year 1970
