x is some whole number so 3x represents the number of apples, 5x is the number of oranges and 6x is the number of ponkans. The numbers 3x, 5x and 6x are also whole numbers as well. They add up to 256 total pieces of fruit. Solve the equation below for x

3x+5x+6x = 256

14x = 256

14x/14 = 256/14

x = 18.29

since x is not a whole number, there is something wrong with the initial problem. Please double check to make sure there isn't a typo.

Lake Lopez had a water depth at its dam of 515 inches at the beginning of the year. During the rainy season, the water depth inc
guapka [62]

This question states that Lake Lopez began at a depth of 515 inches, then increased by 82 inches, then decreased by 119 inches. To model this, we will use addition for the increase and subtraction for the decrease; this will signify a positive/negative change in the depth. This can be modeled by the expression below:

515 + 82 - 119

597 - 119

478

Therefore, the water depth at the end of the summer was 478 inches.

Hope this helps!

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

34175 people will live in Pattersonville 8 years from now

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of Pattersonville =40,500

We are given that The census indicated that the population of the town has been decreasing by 2.1% per year .

Now we are supposed to find If this trend continues , approximately how many people will live in Pattersonville 8 years from now

Formula : N(t)=N_0(1-r)^t

Where N(t)= Population after t years

N_0= Initial population

r = rate of decrease = 2.1 %=0.021

t = 8 years

Substitute the values in the formula :

So,N(8)=40500(1-0.021)^8

N(8)=34175.63223

So, 34175 people will live in Pattersonville 8 years from now
