First, make a equation in which r= red and b=blue.
So, since in the first box it has 4 red models and one blue model equaling 12,
the first equation looks like 4r+b=12.
The second equation looks like 2r+b=8.
What you would do is try and first solve for r by getting rid of b.
Since both equation has a positive b, you would make one equation have a negative b by multiplying the whole equation by -1.
-1*(2r+b=8)= -2r-b=-8
Add.
4r+b=12
+(-2r-b=-8)
2r=4
r=2
Then, you plug in 2 for the r for any of the original equations.
4(2)+b=12
8+b=12
b=4
or
2(2)+b=8
4+b=8
b=4
So, the red models weigh 2 pounds while the blue models weigh 4.
If the vectors point towards the same direction, the magnitude of the vector quantities are added as in, C = A + B. If they point towards opposite direction, the magnitudes are subtracted giving a resultant vector equal to C = A - B.
Given parameters:
Current population = 530,300 people
Growth rate = 0.8% per year
Unknown
Population in 15 more years = ?
To solve this problem, we must compound the increase per year.
This implies that we treat the problem like that of a compound interest.
Since we know that population increases by 0.8%,
it is similar to 1 + 
= 1.008 increase
Now the population in 15years will be;
530300 x (1.008)¹⁵ = 597626 people
So, the population after 15yrs is 597626 people
The correct answer is -3
