Answer: Last Option
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial height of the plant of species A is 25 cm and grows 3 centimeters per month.
If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species A is:
For species B the initial height is 10 cm and it grows 8 cm each month
If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species B is:
Finally, the system of equations is:
The answer is the last option
Given :
At a restaurant, Brianna and Naomi each order an appetizer for $6.50 and an entree for $9.75.
The sales tax is $0.98 and they leave a tip of $5.85.
To Find :
How much did Brianna and Naomi spend in all.
Solution :
Total expenses, T = Food + tax + tip
T = $( 6.50+9.75) + $0.98 + $5.85
T = $( 16.25 + 0.98 + 5.85 )
T = $23.08
Therefore, total expenses is $23.08 .
Hence, this is the required solution.
Given:
The race percent of population is
White: 45%
Hispanic: 27%
Black: 18%
Asian: 7%
Other: 3%
Part a.
The university has 2,815 Hispanic out of the 20,250 total population.
This is equivalent to (2815/20250)*100 = 13.9%
This percentage is less than 27%, so Hispanics do not have proportional representation.
Answer: The Hispanic students do not have proportional representation.
Part b.
Let x = the extra number of Hispanic students needed for proportional representation of 27% or 0.27.
Then
(2815 + x)/20250 = 0.27
2815 + x = 20250*0.27 = 5467.5
x = 5467.5 - 2815 = 2652.5
This means that 2,653 extra Hispanic students are required for a population of 20,250 students.
Answer: 2,653 extra Hispanic students.
