Answer:

  5% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change can be calculated using the formula ...

  percentage change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

Using the given population values, we can find the change to be ...

  percent change = (23221/24528 -1) × 100% = (0.947 -1) × 100%

  = -5.3% . . . . . a negative change indicates a decrease

The percentage decrease in the town's population is 5%.

3x − 6y = –6 x = 2 solve using substitution.
nordsb [41]

Answer:

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you substitute x with 2.

3(2)-6y=(-6)

Then, you multiply:

6-6y=(-6)

Next, you subtract 6 from -6. So, the first 6 gets crossed out because of inverse of operation.

-6y=-12

Finally, you divide -6 to both sides of the equation to get y=2

Simplify the following expression completely using distribution and combining like terms
LiRa [457]

\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • Simplify ⇨ 19m + 14 - 3 (3m + 7)

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

\sf \: 19 m - 14 - 3 ( 3 m + 7 )

Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 3m+7.

\sf \: 19m-14-9m-21

Combine 19m and -9m to get 10m.

\sf \: 10m-14-21

Subtract 21 from -14 to get -35.

\boxed{\boxed{\bf \: 10m-35 }}

If f is translated 4 units down to create g, which function represents g? A. g(x) = f(x) - 4 B. g(x) = f(x - 4) C. g(x) = f(x +
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

g(x)=f(x)-4

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

f is translated 4 units down to create g

we know that

whenever we translate any function by 'a' units down , we always subtract that function by 'a' units

Suppose, f(x) is translated down by 'a' units

so, we get

=f(x)-a

now, we have

f is translated 4 units down

so, we get

=f(x)-4

and it is creating g(x)

g(x)=f(x)-4
