First, start with your given. If your given has the words: bisect or midpoint, then the next step will be the definition of that.
Answer:
0.9101523758 ≈ 1 year
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of a small town is 40,740.
Its population falls by 8% per year.
Given: Compound interest Amount (A) = P( 1 + 

14,550 = 40,740(1 + 

14,550 = (40,740 - 3259.2
14,550 = (37,480.8
t * log 37,480.8 = log 14,550
t =
= 0.9101523758 ≈ 1 year
For this question it is the difference of two perfect squares. This means your final answer will be (2x - 5)(2x + 5). This answer is not listed so it would be none of the above.
After review, B technically works because it is the difference of two perfect squares. This allows you to take the square root of each term while ignoring the sign and then place that back in with the original sign.
Answer:
The amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's "x" be amount of water in (liters) added to 15 liters of 40% of sugar syrup.
Now find the amount of sugar syrup = 40% of 15
= 0.4 × 15
The amount of sugar syrup = 6 Liters
To dilute 30% we need to find amount of water to be added.
So,
30% of (15 + x) = 6
0.3 × (15 + x) = 6
4.5 + 0.3x = 6
0.3x = 6 - 4.5
0.3x = 1.5
Dividing both sides, by 0.3, we get
x = 5
So, the amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.
