Given that,
A car uses a litre of petrol to travel 4 km.
To find,
How many litres will it use to travel 32 kilometres.
Solution,
We have,
1 litre = 4 km
or
1 km = (1/4) litre
Let it will use x litres to travel 32 km.
32 km = (32/4) litres
= 8 litres
Hence, 8 litres it will use to travel 32 km.
Answer:
The growth rate is 0.6
The growth factor is 1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, the exponential equation can be written as;
y = a(1 + r)^x
Where a is the initial value of 100
r is the growth rate
So let us form equations;
160 = 100(1 + r)^1 •••••(i)
Also;
256 = 100(1 + r)^2 •••••••(ii)
Divide equation ii by i
256/160 = 1 + r
1.6 = 1 + r
r = 1.6-1
r = 0.6
9/16 is the original fraction. 9+3 = 12 and 16-1 =15. 12/15 = 4/5
2.12=2.120 that is the answer
