ANSWER: 24 people
All you have to do is multiply 25 and 6 to get 150. Then minus 150 from 385 to get 235. Then divide 235 by 10 to get 23.5, since you can not have half a person the answer is to round up to 24.
Answer:
20% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is divide 72 by 90n and it will give you .8, move the decimal two places to the right to give you 80 and subtract 80 from 100 to get 20
Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height
Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7
9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16
With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.
To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )
Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
Fractions that aren't equivalent would be 30/60, 34/60 and anything that cannot be the same as 36/60.
