Answer:
3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
12/4=3 (because we need to see how much bryant ate first)
12-3=9 (original - what bryant ate)
9/3=3 (what was left after bryant finish and what 1/3 of 9 is)
Answer:
(B) 
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use formula

where
Po is the initial population
r is the growth rate
t is the time in months
We are given
initial population of insects
so, Po=6
The scientists find that the insect population, x, is growing exponentially 20% per month
so, r=0.20
now, we can plug these values

there to be a population of 477 insects
so, P(t)=477
now, we plug it
and we get

Answer:
<em>x = 9</em>
<em>y = 36</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Lines and Angles</u>
Triangle CDE is isosceles. This means the two angles of the base DE are congruent (have the same measure):
7x + 1 = 4x + 28
Subtracting 4x + 1:
3x = 27
Dividing by 3:
x = 9
Substituting in the expression for the angles:
7x + 1 = 7*9 + 1 = 64°
The angles are 64° and 64°. The other internal angle at vertex C is 180°-64°-64°=52°. This angle is congruent with its vertical angle in the triangle ABC. We are given another angle of 43°. Thus the measure of angle A is 180°-52°-43°=85°
This last angle is equal to the expression of y:
-2(3 - y) + 19 = 85
Subtracting 19:
-2(3 - y) = 66
Removing the parentheses:
-6 + 2y = 66
Adding 6:
2y = 72
Dividing by 2:
y = 36
Final answer:
x = 9
y = 36
