Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of width to length of the known rectangle is 4 : 14 and this simplifies to 2 : 7.

The smaller similar rectangle will have the same ratio of 2 :7.

This can also be looked at another way. The second value in the ratio is 7/2 of the first value in the ratio and the first value is 2/7 of the second value.

Example:

7/2 * 2 = 7

Example:

2/7 * 7 = 2

This deals with exponential growth.
house value = 20,000 * (1.05)^years
(where years is # of years from 1950 - so 1950 = 0, 1951 = 1, etc)
house value = 20,000 * (1.05)^65

The population of a town increased from 3650 in 2006 to 5400 in 2009. Find the absolute and relative (percent) increase.
adell [148]

Answer:

The absolute increase was of 1750.

The relative increase was of 47.95%

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute increase:

The absolute increase is the final population divided by the initial population.

Initial population: 3650 in 2006

Final population: 5400 in 2010

5400 - 3650 = 1750

The absolute increase was of 1750.

Relative increase:

The relative increase is the absolute increase divided by the initial population, then multiplied by 100(to answer as a percentage):

Absolute increase: 1750

Initial population: 3650

1750/3650 = 0.4795

The relative increase was of 47.95%
