Answer:

6000

Step-by-step explanation:

If the fish population in a local lake increases at a rate proportional to the population each moment, this can be expressed as;

P = k/t (the scenario is an inverse proportionality because as the time is reducing, the population is increasing by the same factor)

If there are 1000 fish 5 years ago and there are 2000 fish 4 years ago

Yearly percentage increase will be;

2000-1000/1000 × 100%

1000/1000×100%

= 100%

This means that the population increases by 100% on a yearly basis (by a factor of 1000)

The population 3 years ago will be population

P = 2000+1000

P = 3000

The population 2 years ago will be population

P = 3000+1000

P = 4000

The population 1 year ago will be population

P = 4000+1000

P = 5000

The population now will be population

P = 5000+1000

P = 6000 populations

Find the slope of the line that passed though the two points <br> (0,5) and (-9, -4)
OverLord2011 [107]

To find the slope, use the slope(m) formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}        and plug in the two points

(0, 5) = (x₁, y₁)

(-9, -4) = (x₂, y₂)

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-4-5}{-9-0}

m=\frac{-9}{-9}    [two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]

m = 1      The slope is 1

Brainly the owner of a hat store buys a hat for 5.50 he uses a markup rate up 105% what is the sale price of the hat
nirvana33 [79]

11.275 is the sale price of the hat

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Brainly the owner of a hat store buys a hat for 5.50 and he uses a mark-up rate is 105%. Need to find out what is the sale price of the hat.

Here, given data, cost price of hat = 5.5. Let the selling price of hat be x and find the data as asked in question,

                \text {Markup rate}=\frac{S . P .-C . P .}{S . P .} \times 100

                105=\frac{x-5.5}{5.5} \times 100

                \frac{105 \times 5.5}{100}=x-5.5

                \frac{577.5}{100}=x-5.5

               5.775 + 5.5 = x

Where,

S.P - sale price

C.P - cost price

Therefore, x = 11.275 is the sale price of the hat.
