Answer:The population will be 198000 people

Step-by-step explanation: 5.5% of 240,000 = 13200

Therefore in 15 years time the population will be 13200×15 years = 198,000 people.

the ages of two friends Sunaina and Tanish are differ by 2 years sunaina's father is twice as old as Sunaina and Tanisha is twic

nikklg [1K]

Let S represent Sunaina's age.

Let T represent Tanish's age.

So 2S - T/2 = 40, 4S - T = 80.

Either S - T = 2 or T - S = 2. Let's try both cases.

Either 3S = 78 or 3S = 82.

Since 82 is not a multiple of 3, S = 26.

So Sunaina is 26 years old and Tanish is 24 years old.

Determine the type and number of solutions of 4x^2-5x+1=0.

Arlecino [84]

<span>4x² - 5x + 1 = 0
a = 4; b = - 5, c = 1
</span>Δ = b² - 4.a.c
Δ = (-5)² - 4.4.1
Δ = 25 - 16
Δ = 9
<span>
x = - b </span>± √Δ / 2.a
$x = \frac{-5\± \sqrt{9} }{2*4}$
$x = \frac{-5\±3}{8}$
$x' = \frac{-5-3}{8} = \frac{-8}{8} = -1$
$x' = \frac{-5+3}{8} = \frac{-2}{8} (\div2) = \frac{-1}{4}$

A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)
