We know that the population is declining at a rate of 14% per year.
The expression is:
N ( x ) = 206 * ( 0.86 ) ^ x
where x stays for years.
If we want to find the rate at which the population is declining per month we have to find:
![\sqrt[12]{0.86} = 0.9875](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B0.86%7D%20%3D%200.9875%20%20)
And 0.9875 ≈ 0.99
There are 12 months in a year so the exponent is: x/12
Answer:
b. ( .99 ) ^ x/12
Alright, 14 oz. cup of coffee contains 20% milk. If you add 7 ounces to that mixture, your answer would be:
14 oz = 0.2 milk
+7 oz. = 28
28/14 = 2
0.2*2 = 0.4, written as a percent will be 40%
40% milk.
12a + 7(2000) > = 38000
12a + 14000 > = 38000
12a > = 38000 - 14000
12a > = 24000
a > = 24000/12
a > = 2000 <==== at least 2000 alumni would have to buy tickets
Answer:
The mixture C is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the given scenario, the calculation is as follows:
For Mixture A
Blue Paint - 5 cups
White Paint - 12 cups
The ratio between them is 5:12
For Mixture B
Blue Paint - 6 cups
White Paint - 6 cups
The ratio between them is 6:6 = 12:12
It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12
For Mixture C
Blue Paint - 4 cups
White Paint - 12 cups
The ratio between them is 4:12
For Mixture D
Blue Paint - 5 cups
White Paint - 6 cups
The ratio between them is 5:6 = 10:12
It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12
As it can be seen that in all four mixtures the denominator is the same so for calculating the lowest ratio we have to see the small value in the numerator
As it can be seen that there is a small value of 4
hence, the mixture C is the correct option
Answer:
The solution is x=3 , y=-4 or (3,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations (1 and 2) are:
To solve a system of equation with elimination method, the co-efficients of one of the variables has to be equated and then the equations are added or subtracted to get an equation in one variable.
Multiplying equation 1 by 2:
Multiplying equation 2 by 3
Adding equation 3 and 4
Putting y = -4 in equation 1
Hence,
The solution is x=3 , y=-4 or (3,-4)
