A population of 5000 people doubles in size every 10 years. Determine the population

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: A quantity grows exponentially when its increase is proportional to what is already there. A common example is compound interest, where $100 invested at 7% per year annual compound interest will double in 10 years. Similarly, if a population grows at 7% per year, it, too, will double in 10 years.

a recipe uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings. if the same amount of milk is used for each serving, how many servings can

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

$1\frac{1}{4}$ cups of milk make 10 servings

$1\frac{1}{4}$ can also be written as 1.25

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 1.25 : 10

1 gallon = 16 cups

Let,

x be the number of servings made from 1 gallon

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 16 : x

This is a direct proportion

1.25 : 10 :: 16 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

10*16 = 1.25x

160 = 1.25x

1.25x=160

Dividing both sides by 1.25

$\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{160}{1.25}\\x=128$

Hence,

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

A class is selling magazines as a fund raiser. Of the 500 magazines sold, Amy sold 1/9 of them. Garret sold 0.145 of the magazin

andrey2020 [161]

500 total magazines...

Amy sold 1/9......1/9(500) = 500/9 = 55.5
Garret sold 0.145.....0.145(500) = 72.5
Robbie sold 12/100.....0.12(500) = 60
Carlita sold 0.095.....0.095(500) = 47.5

Garret sold the most

or u could have done it this way...
Amy sold 1/9.....1/9 = 11.1%
Garret sold 0.145 = 14.5%
Robbie sold 12/100.....12/100 = 12%
Carlita sold 0.095....0.095 = 9.5%

u will still get the same answer...Garret
