Answer:

31.74 million people were employed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The unemployment rate is the number of unemployed people divided by the size of the labor force.

So the first step to solve this problem is finding the size of the country's labor force.

Suppose some country had an adult population of about 46 million, a labor-force participation rate of 75 percent.

So the size of the country labor force is:

0.75 * 46 million = 34.5 million people.

Unemployment rate of 8 percent. How many people were employed?

This means that 100 - 8 = 92 percent of people were employed. Remembering, this considers only the labor force, of 34.5 million people. So

0.92 * 34.5 million = 31.74 million

31.74 million people were employed.

Calculate the average time the car took to reach each checkpoint. Record the average time in Table D of your Student Guide. The
zhuklara [117]

The average time the car took to reach each checkpoint are:

  • 2.07
  • 3.16
  • 4.11
  • 4.92

<h3>Average time</h3>

Given:

Time  interval

1              2      3           4

2.02    3.17   4.12    4.93

2.05    3.07  3.98   4.81

2.15    3.25  4.23    5.01

Hence:

First quarter checkpoint

Average time= (2.02 + 2.05 + 2.15) / 3

Average time=6.22/3

Average time= 2.07s

Second quarter checkpoint

Average time= (3.17 +3.07 + 3.25) / 3

Average time=9.49/3

Average time = 3.16 s

Third quarter check point

Average time= (4.12 + 3.98 + 4.23) / 3

Average time=12.33/3

Average time= 4.11 s

Fourth quarter check point

Average time = (4.93 + 4.81 + 5.01) / 3

Average time=14.75/3

Average time= 4.917 s

Average time=4.92s (Approximately)

Therefore the average time the car took to reach each checkpoint are: 2.07, 3.16, 4.11, 4.92.

7(-10 + 3x) = -49 Please explain aswell!
bixtya [17]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the 7 away, we need to multiply it into the parentheses.

7*-10= -70

7*3=21

-70+21x= -49

Now we combine like terms and we move 70 over. Because we're moving it to the other side of the equation, it becomes positive.

21x= -49+70

-49+70 is the same as 70-49

70-49= 21

Now we put it together.

21x=21

To get the x by itself, we need to divide 21 on both sides.

21x/21= 21/21

21/21=1

x=1
