If a town starts with population of 63,500 that declines by 700 people each year, construct an equation to model its population

size over time. How long would it take for the population to drop to 53,000?

The equation would be 63500-700x=P, where 63500 is the original population, -700 is the amount the population decreases each year, x is the number of years, and P is the total population.


To answer the second part of the question, plug in 53000 for P and solve for x:

63500-700x=53000

<em>*Subtract 63500 from both sides*</em>

-700x=-10500

<em>*Divide both sides by -700*</em>

x=15


It would take 15 years for the population to drop to 53000.


Hope this helps!!

Which expression could be used to determine the cost of a $40 video game after a 15 percent discount?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: The required expression is,

$ 40(0.85)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original cost of the videogame = $ 40,

Discount percentage = 15%,

So, the amount of discount = 15% of 40

= (0.15)40                     ( ∵ 1% = 0.01 )

Hence, the cost of the videogame = original cost - discount

= 40 - (0.15)40

= 40 (1-0.15)

= 40(0.85)

Which is the required expression .

A circular pool if filling with water. Assuming the water level will be 4' deep and the diameter is 20' , what is the volume of
Yuliya22 [10]

35,569.92 L of water is required to fill the pool

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the area of the circular pool when radius = 20/2 = 10 ft

⇒ Area = πr² = 3.14 × 10² = 314 ft²

  • Step 2: Find the volume of the pool

Volume = Area × Depth

             = 314 × 4 = 1256 ft³

  • Step 3: Convert the volume into liters.

Volume of water = 1256 × 28.32 = 35,569.92 L (∵1 ft³ = 28.32 L)

In the diagram, the circle will be dilated by a scale factor of 3 about the origin. The points C, A, and B map to C', A', and B'
stellarik [79]
Original coordinates of the points:
A (8,15) ; B (12,13) ; C (8,10)

Dilated scale factor of 3.

A ⇒ 3x = 3(8) = 24 ; 3y = 3(15) = 45 ⇒ A' (24,45)
B ⇒ 3x = 3(12) = 36 ; 3y = 3(13) = 39 ⇒ B' (36, 39)
C ⇒ 3x = 3(8) = 24 ; 3y = 3(10) = 30 ⇒ C' (24, 30)

The given image forms a right triangle. So, I'll get the short leg and long leg of the right triangle to solve for the hypotenuse, length of CB.

Short leg: y value of B and C
39 - 30 = 9

Long leg: x value of B and C
36 - 24 = 12

a² + b² = c²
9² + 12² = c²
81 + 144 = c²
225 = c²
√225 = √c²
15 = c

The length of CB is 15 units.
