The answer would be 7z-17y+24

Explanation

========================================================

The problem is simplify 24-4(5y-6z)+3y-7z

We can focus on the smaller important parts first which would be to multiply -4(5y-6z). A common mistake is that people always forget to multiply with the negative sign.

We multiply -4(5y) + -4(-6z) ===> -20y + 24z

We now have...

24-20y+24z+3y-7z

We combine any like terms and we get...

17z-17y+24

I hope this helps : )

Three people whowork full time are working together on a project but their totaltime on the project is to be equivalent to that

Art [367]

The answer is (1/3). So first you need to determine the fraction of time the second person worked. Multiply (1/2)x(1/3) and you will get (1/6). All the values need to add up to 1, so you can make the equation (1/2)+(1/6)+x=1. Solve for x and you will get (1/3).

In 2018, the population will grow over 700,000.The population of a city in 2010 was 450,000 and was growing at a rate of 5% per

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The year is 2020.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of years passed since 2010 to reach population more than 7000000 be 'x'.

Given:

Initial population is, $P_0=450,000$

Growth rate is, $r=5\%=0.05$

Final population is, $P=700,000$

A population growth is an exponential growth and is modeled by the following function:

$P=P_0(1+r)^x$

Taking log on both sides, we get:

$\log(P)=\log(P_0(1+r)^x)\\\log P=\log P_0+x\log (1+r)\\x\log (1+r)=\log P-\log P_0\\x\log(1+r)=\log(\frac{P}{P_0})\\x=\frac{\log(\frac{P}{P_0})}{\log(1+r)}$
