Answer: year 1948

Step-by-step explanation:

1900 is our t = 0

The population of Greenville can be written as:

G = 4000 + 100*t

the equation for Springfield can be written as:

S = 1000*(1.04)^t

we want to find the value of t that makes S(t) = G(t)

4000 + 100*t = 1000*(1.04)^t

(4000 + 100*t) = 1.04^t

4 + 0.1*t = 1.04^t

now, you can graph both of this equations (left side and right side) and see in wich value of t the graphs intersect eachother, or you also may use different values of t until the values are about the same for both sides, which is the thing i did with the equation:

4 = 1.04^t - 0.1*t

You will find that the correct value is t = 48

So we can assume that in year 1948 the populations will be about the same.

For some integer n, the first, the third and the fifth terms of an arithmetic sequence are respectively 3n, 5n – 6, and 11n + 8.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

a₄=8n+1= -39.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if a₁=3n; a₃=5n-6 and a₅=11n+8, then it is possible to calculate the difference according to 0.5(a₅-a₃)=0.5(a₃-a₁). Then

2) 0.5(11n+8-5n+6)=0.5(5n-6-3n); ⇔ 6n+14=2n-6; ⇔ n= -5.

3) if n=-5, then the 4th term is:

a_4=\frac{a_5+a_3}{2}; \ = > \ a_4=\frac{11n+8+5n-6}{2}=8n+1;

or a₄=-39.

Someone help me pls.....

Answer:

\dfrac{-x+5}{6x^2-x-12}

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominators are the same. You can add the numerators without any extra work.

=\dfrac{(4x+5)-(5x)}{6x^2-x-12}=\dfrac{-x+5}{6x^2-x-12}

The denominator factors as (2x-3)(3x+4), so there are no factors that will cancel with the numerator.

Indigo Company had cash sales of $78,120 (including taxes) for the month of June. Sales are subject to 8.5% sales tax. how to re
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales revenue x (100%+sales tax rate) = total sales including tax

sales revenue x 1.085 (100% + 8.5%) = 78120

sales revenue = 78120/1.085

sales revenue = 72000

total sales including tax - sales revenue = sales tax

78120 = 72000 = 6120

Journal entry:

cash.      78120

  Sales revenue.     72000

  Sales tax payable.  6120
