5 out of 20 like Star Wars so what value (x) should like Star Wars out of 200. Set up a proportion comparing the two.

x= # of people in 7th gr who like Star Wars

5/20= x/200
cross multiply

(5*200)= (20*x)
1000= 20x
divide both sides by 20

50= x


ANSWER: 50 people in the 7th grade should like Star Wars.

Hope this helps! :)

The current population of a town is 10,000 and its growth in years can be represented by P(t) = 10,000(0.2)^t, where t is the ti
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1) 20%

2) Choice a.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t)=10000(0.2)^t

1) P(0) is the population initially.

P(1) is the population after a year.

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)} represents the population increase factor.

So let's evaluate that fraction:

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)}

\frac{10000(0.2)^1}{10000(0.2)^0}

\frac{0.2^1}{0.2^0}=\frac{0.2}{1}=0.2

0.2=20%

2) Let's figure out the population growth in terms of months instead of years.

P(t)=10000(0.2)^{t}

We want t to represent months.

A full year is 12 months, in a full year we have that P(1)=10000(0.2)^1=10000(0.2)=2000

So we want a new P such that P(12)=2000 since 12 months equals a year.

Let's look at the functions given to see which gives us this:

a) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12}=2000 \text{approximately}

b) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12(12)}=0 \text{ approximately}

c) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{\frac{1}{12}}=9889 \text{approximately}

d) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12+12}=400 \text{approximately}

So a is the function we want.

Also another way to look at this:

P(t)=10000(.2)^t where t is in years.

P(t)=10000(.2^\frac{1}{12})^t where t is in months.

And .2^\frac{1}{12}=0.874485 \text{approximately}

The ratio of the number of games won to the number of games lost (no ties) by the Middle School Middies is
LenKa [72]

Answer:

27%

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio means that for every 11 games won, 4 are lost, so the team has won 11<em>x</em> games, lost 4<em>x</em> games, and played 15<em>x</em> games for some positive integer <em>x</em>. The percentage of games lost is

4x / 15x * 100 = 4/15 * 100 = 26.6666 = 27%

Need to know the answer for this one , help
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Choice D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is the set of all y-coordinates of the points in the graph.

The graph is a wavy function that has a maximum y-coordinate of 1 and a minimum y-coordinate of -1. The y-coordinates can also be all numbers between -1 and 1. Choice A. is only the two numbers -1 and 1. That is not correct since the range comprises the numbers -1, 1, and all numbers in between -1 and 1.

Answer: Choice D.

Someone please help me with this geometry question
marin [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + 12 + (-8x + 48) = 180

-15x + 60 = 180

-15x = 120

x = -8

m<BDC= -7(-8)+ 12 = 56 + 12 = 68

m<CBA = -8(-8)+48 = 64+48 = 112
