Answer

a) C

b) B

c) C, E

d) 15.5

e) 0.7

f) 67.7

Step-by-step explanation

a) A linear equation can be written as $y=mx+c$ where $m$ is the slope and $c$ is the intercept on the $y$ -axis. The slope describes how $y$ changes when $x$ changes. A negative value means the it is a decreasing change. In our case, $y$ is $A$ and $x$ is $t$ . Thus, the slope of the equation is $m=-0.062$ . This means that the area of glacier is decreasing by $0.062 \text{km}{}^2 = 62000 \text{m}{}^2$ every year since 2000.

b) The $A$ -intercept (= 16.2 $\text{km}{}^2$ ) represents the area covered when $t=0$ . But $t=0$ starting from year 2000. This intercept then represents the area covered by glacier in the year 2000. Therefore, the area covered by glacier in 2000 was 16.2 $\text{km}{}^2$ .

c) $A=f(t)$ means the area covered after year 2000. Setting it to 12 means the area covered after $t$ years is 12 $\text{km}{}^2$ ). $t$ is therefore the number of years since 2000 that the total area covered will be 12 $\text{km}{}^2$ ).

d) $f(12)=16.2−0.062\times12 =16.2-0.744 = =15.456 15.5 \text{km}{}^2$ to 1 decimal place.

e) The term involving $t$ represents the disappearing area. In 12 years, the disappeared area is $0.062\times12=0.744 =0.7 \text{km}{}^2$ to 1 decimal place.

f) $f(t)=16.2−0.062t =12$

$0.062t = 16.2-12 = 4.2$

$t = \dfrac{4.2}{0.062}=67.7419\ldots =67.7$ years to 1 decimal place.

235 people are at RSM summer camp. There are 35 more boys than girls, and 70 fewer adults than girls. How many people of each gr

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The number of girls are 90 girls

The number of boys are 125 boys

The number of adults are 20 adults

There are 90 girls, 125 boys and 20 adults at the camp

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people is given as 235 people

The number of boys = 35 + The number of girls

The number of adults = The number of girls - 70

Let the total number of girls = G

Therefore, we have;

The number of boys = 35 + G

The number of adults = G - 70

The total number of persons = The number of boys + The number of adults + The number of girls

Therefore;

235 = The number of boys + The number of adults + The number of girls

Which gives;

235 = 35 + G + G - 70 + G = 3·G - 35

235 = 3·G - 35

3·G - 35 = 235

3·G = 235 + 35 = 270

G = 270/3 = 90

The number of girls = 90

The number of boys = 35 + The number of girls = 35 + 90 = 125

The number of boys = 125

The number of adults = The number of girls - 70 = 90 - 70 = 20

The number of adults = 20.
