Simply add up all.
4 1/2 + 6 2/3 + 9 1/4
(4 + 6 + 9) + 1/2 + 2/3 + 1/4
19 6/12 + 8/12 + 3/12 = (6+8+3)/12 = 17/12
19 17/12
19 1 5/12
19 + 1 5/12
= 20 5/12
20 5/12 yards was purchased.
Answer:
(A) The population's growth rate in equation form is y = (0.016t * 7652) + 7652
(B) y = (0.016t * 7652) + 7652 =
y = (0.016(8) * 7652) + 7652 =
y = (0.128 * 7652) + 7652 =
y = 979.456 + 7652 =
y = 8631.456 (Or About) 8631
Step-by-step explanation:
(A) Y = the total population of the town. 0.016 is 1.6% just in its original form. T = the year in which were trying to find the town's total population. 7652 is the total population of the town in 2016. With this information, the equation reads, The total population of the town (Y) is equal to 16% (0.016) of the current year's population (T) added to 2016's population of 7652. (This last sentence can also be read what is 1.6% of the towns population in the year were trying to find. Because the population is always growing, 1.6% gets multiplied as to scale with the total population in year T)
(B) We just substitute (T) for 2024, or 8 years after 2016 (2024-2016) and simplify the equation we made.
Answer:
y = (1/2)x - 3 Answer A is closest.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two points on the line are (0, -3) and (4, -1). Notice that I've intentionally chosen "nice" points whose coordinates are integers; this makes the math easier. The point (1, -5/2) is also on the line if you want to use it, but the math's a bit more complicated.
Going from (0, -3) to (4, -1), x increases by 4 and y increases by 2. Hence, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/4, or m = 1/2.
The slope-intercept formula for the equation of a straight line is the most convenient to use here, since we can tell immediately from the graph that the y-intercept is (0, -3):
y = (1/2)x - 3
Answer A should be y = (1/2)x - 3 for improved legibility. 1 2 x is not correct as a way to express (1/2)x.
