The rate of change is 16.8 million tons per year
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, the world catch of fish in 1950 was 12 million tons and in 1955 it was 96 million tons
<em><u>The average rate of change is given by formula:</u></em>

Value in 1950 = 12 million tons
Value in 1955 = 96 million tons
Change in value = value in 1955 - value in 1950
Change in value = 96 million - 12 million = 84 million tons
Number of years = 1950 to 1955 = 5 years
<em><u>Substitute the given values in formula,</u></em>
<em><u></u></em>
<em><u></u></em>
Thus rate of change is 16.8 million tons per year
I think that this is a combination problem. From the given, the 8 students are taken 3 at a time. This can be solved through using the formula of combination which is C(n,r) = n!/(n-r)!r!. In this case, n is 8 while r is 3. Hence, upon substitution of the values, we have
C(8,3) = 8!/(8-3)!3!
C(8,3) = 56
There are 56 3-person teams that can be formed from the 8 students.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
+
> 1 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions )
2 + x > 3 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
x > 1
3(n - 5) = 24
Distributive property
3*n = 3n
3*5 = 15
3n - 15 = 24
+ 15 +15
3n = 39
3n/3 = 39/3
x = 39/3
x = 13
Answer: x = 13
