Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of trees be T and suppose that this is made up of eucalyptus trees E and other kinds of trees, O.
Then E+O=T, and since 99% of the trees are eucalyptus trees, EE+O=0.99.
Therefore
0.99E+0.99O=E
0.01E=0.99O
E=99O.
Suppose we reduce the number of eucalyptus trees by some amount x and that the remaining number of eucalyptus trees are now 98% of the total trees.
Then we would have E−x(E−x)+O=0.98.
Therefore,
0.02(E−x)=0.98O
0.02E−0.02x=0.98O
0.02x=0.02E−0.98O
x=E−50(0.98)O
x=E−49O
x=E−49(E99)
x=5099E≈0.505050...×E.
So we end up removing a little over half of the eucalyptus trees. EDIT: Forgot to mention - removing 50.505050...% of the eucalyptus trees means that we are removing 0.50505050....×0.99T which is 0.5T or half the trees in the neighborhood.
Answer ↣ 12 gallons per minute
Step-by-step explanation ↣ Ok I'm gonna use ratios because I can't draw a graph here.
Ok so if the garden hose supplies 36 gallons of water in 3 minutes, then the ratio is 36:3 because every 3 minutes the garden hose "sprays" 36 gallons.
To simplify this ratio, you need find the amount of water the garden hose supplies in 1 minute.
Well to get from 3 to 1, you have to divide by 3.
Do the same thing to 36. 36/3 equals 12.
So the final ratio is 12:1
This is the unit rate. The unit rate is when one variable is 1 unit (most of the time it is speed).
You can multiply 1 by any number and multiply 12 by the same number.
Here are some ratios...
m=minutes
g=gallons
1m:12g
2m:24g
3m:36g
4m:48g
5m:60g
Hope this helped!
BTW why do I sound like this I'm not a aesthetic person-
1. Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd(a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd(a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd
a^2b^2+8ab−9ab−72
2. Collect the like terms
a^2b^2+(8ab−9ab)−72
3. Simplify
a^2b^2-ab-72
