I believe it would have been $347,316.95 at the time of purchase.

1.2% of 456996 is 5483.952

$5483.952 \times 20 = 109679.04$

So:

$456996 - 109679.04 = 347316.95$

During two years, the population of birds of an island became 7 times more than before. If the first year increase in the popula

Answer:

The percent increase of the second year is 400%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let the population of birds was x.

After 2 years the population becomes 7 times more than before.

Therefore, after 2 years population is 7x.

In first year increase in the population was 40%.

Population after 1st year = x + 40% of x

Population after 1st year = x + 0.40x

Population after 1st year = 1.4x

The population increase from 1st year to 2nd year is: 7x-1.4x=5.6x

Thus the percentage increase is:

$\% increase=\frac{5.6x}{1.4x}\times100=400\%$

Hence, in second year the population of birds increase by 400%.

No, because if you add on 6 more dollars to package 2 you would only have 6 socks for 12 dollars and on package A you would have 8 pairs for 12 dollars.

The sketch shows the distance three runners travel during a race. Describe what occurs at times A,B,C and D. In what order do th

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Notice that the distance is in the y-axis, and the time in the x-axis.

First, let's see what happens in the four points:

A) You can see that in point A, the steepness of the line increases, this means that the speed of the runner increases in that point.

B) In this point, the runner that increased his/her speed in point A crosses the graph of another runner, this means that they are at the same distance to the end and at the same time.

C) In this point again two runners are at the same distance and the same time, and we also can see that the runer that increased his/her speed at point A, now has reached the end of the race (because his line stops increasing, wich means that he/she already finished the race)

D) The las runner finishes the race at point D.

Then the first runner that finishes the race is the one with the shorter graph (shorter graph means that he ran for less time than the others, wich means that he/she finished first)

The last runner is the one that finished at point D,

The middle one finishes right after the point C.
