Question:
Suppose that the populations of the United States and China both increase by 12 million people in one year. What would be the relative change for each country? Answer to the nearest tenth of a percent (1 decimal place). Make sure that you fill in each answer area before checking "How Did I Do?".
If you assume that the U.S. population is about 300 million, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.
If you assume that China has about 1 billion people, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.
Answer:
The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Represent population with p. So, we have:
United States
China
Required
Determine the relative change for each country
Relative change, C is calculated as:
For United States
For China
The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.
25 i think, i just used an anagram server to generate it
Ni because if you divide or mulriply the denominator you have to multiply or divide the numerator by the same amount. It is not possible dince you can divide the denominator by 2 to get 3 but you cant divude 5 by 2 and get an evn number
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
26% is (26-20)/(50-20) = 6/30 = 1/5 of the way between 20% and 50%. That means 1/5 of the solution is 50% acid.
50% acid: 1/5 · 100 mL = 20 mL
20% acid: 100 mL -20 mL = 80 mL
Delbert must mix 80 mL of 20% acid and 20 mL of 50% acid.
_____
Maybe you'd like to see an equation. Let x represent the amount of 50% acid required. Then 100-x is the amount of 20% acid needed. The amount of acid in the mix is ...
0.50(x) +0.20(100 -x) = 0.26(100)
(0.50 -0.20)x = (0.26 -0.20)100 . . . . subtract 0.20(100)
x = (0.26 -0.20)/(0.50 -0.20)×100 = 20
This last expression should look a lot like the one we started with in this answer. It shows you how you can almost write down the answer to mixture problems without a lot of work.
You convert the fractions into 6ths. So 1/3. You would multiply both parts by 2 (top and bottom denominators) and that would be 2/6. 1/2 of 6 is 3/6. So the answer would be 1/6
