The person was speeding at 93 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given the equation to find speeding fine F = 7(s - 65) + 70
Step 2: Substitute given details in the equation and find s. F = $266

⇒ 266 = 7(s - 65) + 70

⇒ 266 = 7s - 455 + 70

⇒ 266 = 7s - 385

⇒ 651 = 7s

⇒ s = 651/7 = 93

The population of a town in 2000 was 430. The population is increasing at a rate of 0.9% every year. What will be the projected

Virty [35]

Answer: a 470

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth equation with rate of growth r in time period t is given by :-

$y=A(1+r)^t$ , where A is the initial amount

Given : The rate of growth of population every year : 0.9% =0.009

The initial population = 430

Then , the exponential growth equation in time period t is given by :-

$y=430(1+0.009)^t$

In 2010 or for t= 10 years

The projected population of the town will be :-

$y=430(1.009)^{10}=470.305565305\approx470$

Hence, the projected population of the town in 2010 is about 470.

Martin is making a candy that contains 90% milk chocolate and the rest caramels. The candy has 3 pounds of caramels. Part A: Wri

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: The equation using one variable that can be used to find the total number of pounds of milk chocolate and caramels in the candy is $0.9x+3=x$

x= Weight of candy in pounds

0.9x = Weight of milk chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Martin is making a candy that contains 90% milk chocolate and the rest caramels. The candy has 3 pounds of caramels.

Let x= Weight of candy in pounds

Then, 0.9x = Weight of milk chocolate.

Then, According to the question

$0.9x+3=x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x-0.9x=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.1x=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{3}{0.1}=30$

So, Weight of milk chocolate. = $0.9\times30=27$

Hence, the equation using one variable that can be used to find the total number of pounds of milk chocolate and caramels in the candy is $0.9x+3=x$
