Devon made a scale drawing of a triangle. He used a scale factor of 1/4 to draw the new triangle. How does each side of the new triangle compare to the original? Each side of the new triangle is 4 times shorter than the original.

The population of bald eagles is decreasing 4% each year. In 2015, there were 2800 bald eagles.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1120 Eagles

Step-by-step explanation:

If the population of Eagles decreases by 4% percent each year, then in 2030 (which is 15 years later), the population would decrease by (4 × 15)%

that is 60%

This indicates that the population of bald eagles in the year 2030 would be 60% less of what it was in the year 2015.

so we have, $\frac{60}{100}$ × 2800

which gives us 1680

this means that the number of bald eagles in the year 2030 would be 1680 less than the number of bald eagles in the year 2015

hence 2800 - 1680

then the answer is 1120 Bald Eagles

Solve. 3 x+2y−z=8 2x+2z=−4 x+3y=4 Enter your answer, in the form (x,y,z), in the boxes in simplest terms. ( , , )

Answer:

x = 1 , y = 1 , z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{3 x + 2 y - z = 8

2 x + 2 z = -4

x + 3 y = 4

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the third equation, look to solve for x:

{3 x + 2 y - z = 8

2 x + 2 z = -4

x + 3 y = 4

Hint: | Solve for x.

Subtract 3 y from both sides:

{3 x + 2 y - z = 8

2 x + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute x = 4 - 3 y into the first and second equations:

{3 (4 - 3 y) + 2 y - z = 8

2 (4 - 3 y) + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation 3 (4 - 3 y) + 2 y - z = 8.

3 (4 - 3 y) + 2 y - z = (12 - 9 y) + 2 y - z = 12 - 7 y - z:

{12 - 7 y - z = 8

2 (4 - 3 y) + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation 2 (4 - 3 y) + 2 z = -4.

2 (4 - 3 y) + 2 z = (8 - 6 y) + 2 z = 8 - 6 y + 2 z:

{12 - 7 y - z = 8

8 - 6 y + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{12 - 7 y - z = 8

8 - 6 y + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Subtract 12 - z from both sides:

{-7 y = z - 4

8 - 6 y + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by -7:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

8 - 6 y + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute y = 4/7 - z/7 into the second equation:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

8 - 6 (4/7 - z/7) + 2 z = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation 8 - 6 (4/7 - z/7) + 2 z = -4.

8 - 6 (4/7 - z/7) + 2 z = 2 z + ((6 z)/7 - 24/7) + 8 = (20 z)/7 + 32/7:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

(20 z)/7 + 32/7 = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the second equation, look to solve for z:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

(20 z)/7 + 32/7 = -4

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Isolate terms with z to the left hand side.

Subtract 32/7 from both sides:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

(20 z)/7 = -60/7

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Solve for z.

Multiply both sides by 7/20:

{y = 4/7 - z/7

z = -3

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute z = -3 into the first equation:

{y = 1

z = -3

x = 4 - 3 y

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute y = 1 into the third equation:

{y = 1

z = -3

x = 1

Hint: | Sort results.
