Answer:
52 miles/week (12 more miles per week)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to know the miles per week with this increasement, we'll use the rule of 3, assuming that 40 miles is the 100% innitially so:
If:
40 miles --------->100%
X miles ----------> 30%
Solving for X we have the following:
X = 30 * 40 / 100 = 12 miles
So, if Adam wants to increase his weekly mileage by 30%, he needs to run 12 more miles, and that makes a total of 52 miles/week
This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
Answer:
-8 stars
Step-by-step explanation:
if she gets 2 stars for scoring a goal and losses 2 for missing one then if she gets 8 goals = 16 stars and misses 12 goals = - 24 stars so 16-(-24) = -8 stars
