Answer:

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x  be number of years the populations be equal

City A's population of 1115000 is decreasing at a rate of 15000 per year.

The population is decreasing at a constant rate so we use equation

y= mx + b

where m is the slope(rate), b is the initial population

m= -15000 (decreasing) , b= 1115000

y= -15000 x + 1115000

City B's population of 698000 is increasing at a rate of 45000 per year.

m= 45000 (increasing) , b= 698000

y= 45000 x + 698000

Now we set the equations equal and solve for x

45000 x + 698000 = -15000 x + 1115000

Add 15000 on both sides

60000 x + 698000 = 1115000

Subtract 689000 on both sides

60000 x = 417000

Divide by 60000 on both sides

x= 6.95

So after 7 years the population will be equal.

Solve the equation 29 - (x+8) = 6x - 7
max2010maxim [7]
First step you should do is s<span>implify both sides of your equation:
</span>29-(x+8)=6x-7
Distribute the Negative Sign:
29+-1(x+8)=6x-7
29+-1x+(-1)(8)=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x+-7
<span>Combine Like Terms:
</span>(-x)+(29+-8)=6x-7
-x+21=6x-7
<span>Subtract 6x from both sides:
</span>-x+21-6x=6x-7-6x
-7x+21=-7
<span>Subtract 21 from both sides:
</span>-7x+21-21=-7-21 
-7x=-28 
<span>Divide both sides by -7:
</span>-7x/-7 = -28/-7
And now your answer should be:
x=4

The figure is made up of a cylinder and a cone.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

51*pi or 160.221

Step-by-step explanation:

total volume = volume of a cone + volume of a cylinder

total volume = 1/3* pi*r^2* height(of cone) + pi* r^2 *height(of cylinder)

total volume = 1/3 * pi * 3^2 * 5 + pi * 3^2 * 4

total volume = 51*pi = 160.221
