Answer: 15-oz for 2.25

3.20÷20= 0.16

1.70÷10= 0.17

2.25÷15= 0.15

2.72÷16= 0.17

The rabbit population in a forest area grows at the rate of 9% monthly. if there are 270 rabbits in july, find how many rabbits

sukhopar [10]

We will do multiplication, 270x0.9 to find out how many rabbits grow in the area each month. Using that number we will multiply it by 12 because the problem is asking us to find the number of rabbits grown in the are in one year. Our final answer would be 292.

A line joins the point

Harrizon [31]

Intersection of the first two lines:

$\begin{cases}5x - 2y + 3 = 0\\4x - 3y + 1 = 0\end{cases}$

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5:

$\begin{cases}20x - 8y + 12 = 0\\20x - 15y + 5 = 0\end{cases}$

Subtract the two equations:

$(20x - 8y + 12)-(20x - 15y + 5)=0 \iff 7y+7=0 \iff y=-1$

Plug this value for y in one of the equation, for example the first:

$5x - 2\cdot (-1) + 3 = 0\iff 5x+5=0 \iff x=-1$

So, the first point of intersection is $(-1,-1)$

We can find the intersection of the other two lines in the same way: we start with

$\begin{cases}x=y\\x=3y+4\end{cases}$

Use the fact that x and y are the same to rewrite the second equation as

$x=3x+4 \iff 2x=-4 \iff x=-2$

And since x and y are the same, the second point is $(-2, -2)$

So, we're looking for a line passing through $(-1,-1)$ and $(-2, -2)$ . We may use the formula to find the equation of a line knowing two of its points, but in this case it is very clear that both points have the same coordinates, so the line must be $y=x$

In the attached figure, line $5x - 2y + 3 = 0$ is light green, line $4x - 3y + 1 = 0$ is dark green, and their intersection is point A.

Simiarly, line $x=y$ is red, line $x = 3y + 4$ is orange, and their intersection is B.

As you can see, the line connecting A and B is the red line itself.
