Answer:

In 2003, the population was 59000 and the population has been growing by 1,700 people each year.

A.

The equation will be:

59000+1700x = (population 'x' years after 2003)

For x, you plug in the amount of years after 2003.

Like if it is the year 2003, the population is 59000+1700(0)

= 59000

when it is year 2005, the population is 59000+1700(2)

= 62400

B.

The town's population in 2007 will be :

(2007-2003=4)

59000+1700(4)

Population = 65800

C.

59000+1700x=77700

=> 1700x=18700

x = 11

Means 2003+11=2014

Hence, by year 2014 the population will be 77700.

Answer:

    = -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope through two points can be found by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-4-1)/(3--1)

   = (-4-1)/(3+1)

    = -5/4

PLEASE HELP ASAP 9TH GRADE MATH AND I NEED HELP, 15 POINTS AND BRAINLIST HELPPPP
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

x = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∠SRT ≅ ∠STR

Then ∠STR = 20

∠STR  and ∠STU are what you call supplementary angles. This means that the sum of their measurements is equal to 180° because they form a straight line.

So if:

∠STR + ∠STU = 180°

m∠STU = 4x

m∠STR = 20

Then:

4x + 20° = 180°

Now we solve for x:

4x + 20 = 180\\\\Subtract\;20\;from\;both\;sides\;of\;the\;equation\\\\4x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20\\4x = 160\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;of\;the\;equation\;by\;4\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{160}{4}\\\\x = 40

x = 40°

Show an example of commutative property of addition
vaieri [72.5K]
For example, if we use 5+3=8.
If you change it to 3+5, it still equals 8.
Therefore, 3+5=5+3 because at the end, they both have equal value aka both end up with 8 using the same numbers. (goes by the rule a+b=b+a)
