Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

320000 + 5000x

The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

624000 - 14000x

The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:

320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x

14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000

19000x = 304000

x = 304000 / 19000

x = 16

In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

What k-1/3=5/6 equal ?
JulijaS [17]
The value of "K"

k -\frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6}

MMC (3,6)
3,6 | 3
1,2 | 2
1,1 |__ 3*2 = 6

Solving:
k -\frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6}
\frac{6k}{6} - \frac{2}{6} = \frac{5}{6}
cancel denominators (6)
6k - 2 = 5
6k = 5+2
6k = 7
\boxed{k =  \frac{7}{6} }

Flor and Mo both donated money to the same charity. Flor gave three times as much as Mo. Between the two of them, they donated $
BlackZzzverrR [31]
To answer this question, you would divide the total by 3 to find the money that Mo gave. so 280/3= $93.33. I would check my math, just to be safe, however, I hope this helps you out.
