Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent increase, we will need to find the difference between the two populations.

6300 - 5600 = 700 people.

Now, divide this increase by the original population:

$\frac{700}{5600} = 0.125$

Multiply this by 100 to get your percent of increase:

0.125 × 100 = 12.5%

The length of a rectangular park is four timesfour times its width. The park is surrounded by a 33-foot-wide path. Let x denote

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

A(x) = 4x^2 + 330x + 4356

Step-by-step explanation:

width of park: x

length of park: 4x

width + path width = x + 66

length + path width = 4x + 66

area = (x + 66)(4x + 66)

area = 4x^2 + 66x + 264x + 4356

area = 4x^2 + 330x + 4356

A(x) = 4x^2 + 330x + 4356

Theo bought 2 hot dogs and two drinks for $4.00. At the same concession stand, Vicky bought 3 hot dogs and a drink for $4.50. Wr

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The hot dog are $2.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Hot Dogs = H

Drinks = D

2H + 2D = 4

Divide both sides by 2

H + D = 2

Subtract D from either side

H = 2 -D

3H + D = 4.50

Plug in 2 - D for H

3(2- D ) + D = 4.50

6 - 3D + D = 4.50

6 - 4D = 4.50

Add 6 to either side

-4D = 10.50

Divide either side by -4

D = -2 . 625

BD is the angle bisector of

AlexFokin [52]

Note: Let us consider, we need to find the $m\angle ABC$ and $m\angle DBC$ .

Given:

In the given figure, BD is the angle bisector of ABC.

To find:

The $m\angle ABC$ and $m\angle DBC$ .

Solution:

BD is the angle bisector of ABC. So,

$m\angle ABD=m\angle DBC$

$3x=x+20$

$3x-x=20$

$2x=20$

Divide both sides by 2.

$x=\dfrac{20}{2}$

$x=10$

Now,

$m\angle DBC=(x+20)^\circ$

$m\angle DBC=(10+20)^\circ$

$m\angle DBC=30^\circ$

And,

$m\angle ABC=(3x)^\circ+(x+20)^\circ$

$m\angle ABC=(4x+20)^\circ$

$m\angle ABC=(4(10)+20)^\circ$

$m\angle ABC=(40+20)^\circ$

$m\angle ABC=60^\circ$

Therefore, $m\angle DBC=30^\circ,m\angle ABD=30^\circ$ and $m\angle ABC=60^\circ$ .
