You have 2 dekagrams of brand x fertilizer and 9 grams of brand y fertilizer how much fertilizer do you have in grams
Let the number be x
(9+2x)×2= (-3x)+4
18+4x=-3x+4
4x+3x=4-18
7x=-14
x=-2
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Every year, the world grows by 1.1%. Converting to a decimal, we can divide by 100 to get 1.1% = 0.011. This means that the world grows by 0.011 exponentially each year. To put this into an expression, we can add 1 to our percentage to get 1.011. This represents 1 = 100% (the original population) and the growth of 1.1% = 0.011. We multiply the rate including the growth by the population to get the population after one year. After the first year, we have
population * 1.011 as the new population after one year. We do that for every year, so the second year's population is population*(1.011)*(1.011) and so on. If x represents the amount of years, then the population can be represented as
(original population)*1.011ˣ
Therefore, to get from 7 billion to 7.31 billion, we have
7 billion * 1.011ˣ = 7.31 billion
divide both sides by 7 billion to relatively isolate the x
1.011ˣ = 7.31/7
Another way of writing this is
log (base 1.011) (7.31/7) = x
≈ 3.96
Rounding to the nearest whole number, we get 4 as our answer
