Answer: 1.875 is a rational number because it can be represented as a ratio or a fraction.
If you expand this equation first
You get -4u+6+3u=3u+24
And if you simplify that you get:
-u+6=3u+24
Now you need to solve this equation to find u
First bring 3u to the other side to -u-3u (the positive changes to negative)
Now the equation is
-4u+6= 24
Take 6 of both sides
-4u=24-6= 18
-4u= 18
So u= -18/4
Which simplifies to -9/2
Answer: -9/2
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Can't have 0 in the denominator
Let's consider the scenario after each year:
After the zeroth year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)⁰
After the first year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)¹
After the second year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)²
...
Thus, we can find the general rule:
After the nth year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)ⁿ
And after the 16th year, the population is 120 000(1 + 0.04)¹⁶ = 224 758 (rounded to nearest whole number)
