Answer: y=-1/2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use point slope formula you get

y+2=-1/2(x+4)

simplify that in y=mx+b and you get

y=-1/2x-4

A town has a population of 18000 and grows at 2% every year. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the popul

8090 [49]

Answer:

19.9

Step-by-step explanation:

we can write the following equation

18000(1.02)^n

where n is the number of years

so we have

26700=18000(1.02)^n

solve for n

1.483=1.02^n

use logs to solve for n

n=19.9

2x-1=3/4x+9<br> Help Me Brainilist to whoever explains the best

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

normally it would be 2x-1= $\frac{3}{4}$ x+9 so now we have to combine the x into one fraction which will be 2x-1= $\frac{3x}{4}$ +9 now for my way i will be taking the -1 to the other side and when that happens its going to become positive so now the answer will be 2x= $\frac{3x}{4}$ +10 ok so now we have to have the x's to the same side so i have to drag the fraction to the other side and making it positive which will conclude into 1.25x=10 and now 10 divided by 1.25 is 8 so the answer is x=8 (sorry for the ok nows) hope this helped
