Answer:

The number of hardback books in book sale   = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hardback books  = m

So, the number of paperback books = 3 ( number of Hardbacks)  - 12

                                                             = 3 m - 12

⇒the number of paperback books   = 3 m -12

Now, total number of  paperback books  = 162

⇒ (3m -12)  = 162

or, 3m = 162 + 12

or, 3m  = 174     ⇒  m = 174 / 3

or, m = 58

Hence, the number of hardback books  = 58

Tigers:-

f(t)  = 7(1 + 0.1)^2   where t = number of years

Eagle 

g(t)  =  15 + 2t


B  after ten year  number tigers = f(t) = 7(1 + 0.1)^10  =   18

  number of eagles = 15 + 10(2) = 35

C when the number of tigers = number eagles the 2 functions will be equal;-

f(t) = g(t)  that is:-

7* 1.1^t  = 15 + 2t

solve for t

Natural numbers are the positive integers (whole numbers) such as 1, 2, 3, and etc. So it is true that zero is less than every natural number.

[Hundreds]

The 8 in 30,846 is in the hundreds place because the 8 stands for 800.

The possibility of landing on yellow would be 8/72 times because 1/9=x/72.
9 times 8 is 72 so 8 times 1 is 8/72. 1/9 is from the 1+7+1=9. 1/9.
The answer is 8/72 or 1/9.
