This is solved by setting up two equations and then using one to answer the other.
The first step (use what is given to set up the two separate equations)
We are looking for two numbers, let us call them X and Y.
We are told that X + Y = 59
We are also told that (9 more than) 9+ (4times the smaller number) 4Y is the bigger number X
Then we combine that into 9+4Y=X
so we now have two separate equations and we can use one to solve the other. Everywhere we have X in the first equation, we will fill in with the second equation
(9+4Y) +Y = 59 [then combine like terms]
9+5Y=59 [subtract 9 from both sides]
5Y=50 [divide both sides by 5 to isolate the Y]
Y=10 [now plug this into either equation to solve for X]
9+4(10)=X
9+40=X
<u><em>49=X and 10=Y</em></u>
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The mode is the number which appears most often in a set of numbers in this case that would be 6 because it appears twice
Answer:
c. 3680
Step-by-step explanation:
In 2010, the population was 8000.
In 2014, it increased by 15%.
Population in 2014 :
= 8000 + 15/100×8000
= 8000 + 1200
= 9200.
Now, 2/5 of the population was age 12 or under.
= 2/5 × 9200
= 2×1840
= 3680
Answer - c) 3680
