Let's first find the equation to find what the population went up to. X, will be the population of last year.
1.15x=76,894
Now, we need x by itself, so we need to divide both sides by 1.15.
76,894÷1.15≈66,864
There are decimals, but for this problem, hae .3478 of a person would not fit.
We can check our answer.
66,864×.15=10,029.6
10,029.6+66,864=76,893.6 (rounds up to 76,864)
So the population of the town last year was about 66,864 (66,864.3478) people.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 4x
The standard form of equation is: 4x+2y = -13
Step-by-step explanation:
the standard form of a linear equation in two variables is given by:
Given equation is:
Distributing -4 into the round bracket
Adding 4x on both sides
subtracting 5 from both sides
The standard form of equation is: 4x+2y = -13

Consider the suggested option:
1) if in 20 gr. of 50% solution given, then pure salt in this mix is 0.5*20=10 gr., and pure water is 0.5*20=10 gr.
2) after Maya added 5 gr. pure salt is 10+5=15 gr. Total mass of mix is 15(pure salt)+10(pure water)=25 gr.
3) new solution is 15/25=0.6 or 60%.
Answer: 25 gr. of 60% salt solution.
