Answer:
1/3
Use the slope formula and simply the fraction.
18. You can do this in a calculator. 26 - 8 = 18. v = 18.
Answer:
That is 74 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5% = 0.015.
The equation for the rate of growth is P = 430,000(1.015)^n where n is the number of years.
Triple the population is 430,000 * 3 = 1,290,000, so:
1,290,000 = 430,000(1.015)^n
(1.015)^n = 1290,000 / 430,000 = 3
Taking logs of both sides:
n log 1.015 = log 3
n = log 3 / log 1.015 = 73.8 years
The answer is: "
11 " .

____________________________________________________Explanation:____________________________________________________Set up the ratio/ proportion as a fraction:
6 cm / 48 cm = 5 cm / (3x + 7) ;
→ The "cm" units cancel out; since: "cm/cm = 1 " ;
→ The "6/48" = "(6 ÷ 6) / (48 ÷ 6) = " 1/8 " ;
→ Rewrite as:

;
Now, we can "cross-multiply" :

{b

; d

} .
__________________________________________________ As such:
1 * (3x + 7) = 8 * 5 ;
→ 3x + 7 = 40 ;
Subtract "
7" from each side of the equation:
→ 3x + 7 − 7 = 40 <span>− 7 ;
</span>
to get:
→ 3x = 33 ;
Now, divide each side of the equation by "
3" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
→ 3x / 3 = 33 / 3 ;
to get:
____________________________________________________ → "
x = 11 " .

The answer is: "
11 " .
