Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the segment addition postulate, two segments added together have to equal the third segment. In other words, if we added them together, the sum should be the first letter of the first line and the second letter of the second line.

BC + CD = BD

The number of Atlantic blue fin tuna in thousands can be modeled by P(x)=230(.881)^x where X represents the number of years sinc

Maurinko [17]

<h3>Answer: 1981</h3>

===================================

Work Shown:

Recall that P is in thousands, so P = 95 means 95,000.

Plug in P(x) = 95. Solve for x. Use logarithms to get this done.

P(x)=230(0.881)^x

95=230(0.881)^x

95/230 = (0.881)^x

0.41304347826087 = (0.881)^x

(0.881)^x = 0.41304347826087

Log( (0.881)^x )= Log( 0.41304347826087 )

x*Log( 0.881 )= Log( 0.41304347826087 )

x= Log( 0.41304347826087 )/Log( 0.881 )

x= 6.97883817154785

x= 7

Approximately 7 years after 1974 is when the population will be around 95,000.

7 years after 1974 = 1974+7 = 1981

6 children and 2 adults are going to the circus, children tickets are on sale, half the price of adult tickets totaling $54. How

inna [77]

Answer:

Price of 1 child ticket is $5.4

Price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

6 children and 2 adults are going for circus.

Children ticket is half the price of adult ticket.

Total ticketing cost =$54

To find:-

Cost of 1 child ticket=?

Cost of 1 Adult ticket=?

Solution:-

Let price of 1 child ticket be x and price of 1 adult ticket be y,

therefore from the given data we get 2 equations,

$6x+2y=54$ -----------------------------------(1)

$x=\frac{1}{2} y$ --------------------------------(2)

Now, substituting the value of x from equation 2 in equation 1,

$6x+2y=54$

$6(\frac{1}{2} y)+2y=54$

$\frac{6}{2}y+2y=54$

$3y+2y=54$

$5y=54$

$\therefore y=\frac{54}{5}$

$\therefore y =10.8$ ------------------------(3)

Now, substituting the value of y from equation 3 in equation 2,

$x=\frac{1}{2} y$

$\therefore x=\frac{1}{2} \times 10.8$ ------------(from equation 3)

$\therefore x=\frac{10.8}{2}$

$\therefore x=5.4$ ----------------------(4)

As, x is price of 1 child ticket and y is price of 1 adult ticket,

Therefore price of 1 child ticket is $5.4 and price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

There are 900 toothpicks in a regular-sized box. If a jumbo box is made by tripling all the dimensions of the regular-sized bo

Colt1911 [192]

When you triple the height of the box, it can hold (900 x 3) = 2,700 pieces.

Then triple its length, and it can hold (2,700 x 3) = 8,100 pieces.

Then triple its width, and it can hold (8,100 x 3) = 24,300 pieces.

When you triple the dimensions of a 3D object, it has 27 times its original volume. (900 x 27) = 24,300 .
