Suppose a city with population 100,000 has been growing at a rate of 8% per year. If this rate continues, find the population

Sholpan [36]

188,000-

First, you have to find what 8 percent of 100,000 is. In order to do this, multiply 100,000 by 0.08. You get 8,000.

Then, you multiply 8,000 by 11. You get 88,000.

Now all that’s left to do is add 88,000 to 100,000, and you get 188,000.

Hope that helped.

Find the sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 56 find the numbers

ehidna [41]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf 27 \ and \ 29}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first consecutive odd integer be $\sf x$ .

Let the second consecutive odd integer be $\sf x+2$ .

The sum of the two numbers is 56.

$\sf x+x+2=56$

$\sf 2x+2=56$

$\sf 2x=54$

$\sf x=27$

Put x as 27 for the second consecutive odd integer.

$\sf 27+2=29$

The two numbers are 27 and 29.

Solve the system of linear equations below.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the addition/elimination method to solve this. If we multiply the first equation through by -1 we can eliminate the x terms. Doing that gives us:

-x + 3y = 3

x + 3y = 9

The x's subtract each other away leaving us with

6y = 12 so

y = 2.

Now we will plug in 2 for y in either of the original equations to solve for x:

x + 3(2) = 9 and

x + 6 = 9 so

x = 3

The coordinate for the solution is (3, 2) or x = 3, y = 2

The second choice down is the one you want.
