Answer:

The size of the cupcake and the size of the cake differ, so when your saying 1/5 of the cupcake, 1/5 of a cupcake is not the same as 1/5 of the cake . Idk if this will help, but I gave you a suggestion!

Greenville County, South Carolina, has 461,299 adult residents, of which 59,969 are 65 years or older. A survey wants to contact
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The proportion would be the number of the sample (x) over the population size (n)

Here we have x = 59,969 and n= 461,299

P = x/n = 59969/461299

P = 0.13

Solve each system by substitution.<br> y = 2x + 5<br> 3x - y= -6
castortr0y [4]
X=-1 and y=3

To solve this, because y is equal to 2x+5, you can substitute 2x+5 into the bottom equation for y.

You now have 3x - (2x + 5) =-6

This can be solved like a normal equation. Multiply each term in the parenthesis by -1.

3x - 2x - 5 = -6

Subtract 2x from 3x

x - 5 = -6

Add 5 to both sides

x=-1

Now you can solve for y by plugging -1 in for x in either equation. Im going to use the top one.

y= 2(-1)+5
y= -2+5
y=3

You can check your answer by plugging in the values for x and y into both equations and making sure both sides equal each other.

A new shopping mall is gaining in popularity every day since it open the number of shoppers is 20% more than the numbers of shop
erastovalidia [21]

Answer: the number of shoppers on the first day is 125

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of shoppers is 20% more than the numbers of shoppers the day before. It means that the number of shoppers is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Sn = (ar^n - 1)/(r - 1)

Where

n represents the number of term in the sequence.

a represents the first term in the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

From the information given,

r = 1 + 20/100 = 1.2

n = 4(first 4 days)

S4 = 671

Therefore, the expression for the first 4 days is

671 = (a × 1.2^(4) - 1)/1.2 - 1

671 = (a × 1.2^(4) - 1)/0.2

671 = 1.0736a/0.2

671 = 5.368a

a = 671/5.368

a = 125
