If there is 1000 seats, and the students took 45% percent of them, then 450 sixth graders went on the trip
Yes that’s the correct answer
General exponential equation
y = A(1+r)^x
where
A = initial value
r = rate increase (+) or decrease (-)
x = time period of the change
y = projected value
y = 300(1.05)^x
in this problem, x = years after 2017
we want to find an x that makes the value more than or equal to 650
650 <= 300(1.05)^x
Check the picture below.
so, as you can see, the UV segment is parallel to ZW, and therefore, they're the same slope, hmmm wait just a second, what is the slope of ZW anyway?

since now we know the ZW slope, we also know what is the slope for UV, thus,
Answer:
x = 10.6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use sine to solve this since sine is opposite over hypotnuse.
sin(62) = x/12
.883 = x/12
x = .883 * 12
x = 10.6
