This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
I mean, this isn't a question but its true?
Answer:
C) 56
Step-by-step explanation:
DEG and FEG are on a straight line forming 180 degree.
Set your formula up as
180 = (3x+31)+(2x-6)
180 = 3x +2x +31 - 6
180 - 31 + 6 = 5x
155 = 5x
155/5 = x
31 = x
Now substitute 31 in place of x
FEG = (2*31-6)
FEG = 56
Answer:
66.25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
25.5 + 40.75
66.25
They are 66.25 feet away from each other.

Answer:
7/15 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the least common denominator between the two fractions. The least common denominator in this case would be 15, so you have to multiply 1/3 by 5 to have a denominator of 15. Then you multiply 1/5 by 3 to have a denominator of 15. You will find that Mark ran a distance of 2 5/15 km and Shaun ran 3 3/15 km. To make it even easier, you can add the whole number back into the fraction so Mark will have ran 35/15 km and Shaun will have ran 48/15 km meaning that Shaun will have ran more. Then you set you fractions up and subtract them.
