The answer is C
First you subtract 44,604 from 1,715,760 to get 1,671,156 then you divide 1,671,156 by 27,396 to get 61 people

|First of all, the triangles are equal by ASA the way the diagram has been marked.
B and E are both right angles.
Side BC = Side DE
<BCA =< EDA
So triangle BCA = triangle EDA
Now to the letters.
x = y - 1 Add 1 to both sides.
x + 1 = y (1)
3x - 2 = 2y + 1 Subtract 1 from both sides.
3x -2 - 1 = 2y
3x - 3 = 2y Divide by 2
3x/2 - 3/2 = 2y/2
1.5x - 1.5 = y (2)
Step One
Since (1) and (2) both have y isolated on their respective right sides, they can be equated.
1.5x - 1.5 = x + 1 Take an x from both sides.
0.5x - 1.5 = x - x + 1
0.5x - 1.5 = 1 Add 1.5 to both sides.
0.5x = 1 + 1.5
0.5x = 2.5 Divide 0.5 on both sides.
0.5x/0.5 = 2.5/0.5
x = 5
Now we need a y value.
x = y - 1
5 = y - 1 Add 1 to both sides.
5 + 1 = y - 1 + 1
6 = y
So the 2 sides and the 2 angles are equal when
x = 5
y = 6
C Answer <<<<<<
First of all, you can simplify the 4 at the numerator and the 14 at the denominator (they're both multiple of 2):

Now, rationalize a denominator means that you have to get rid of the square root, in order to have an integer denominator.
To do so, remember that you can always multiply any number by 1 without changing its value, and you can always think of 1 as a fraction where numerator and denominator are equal:

Distribute and combine like-terms!
-4x + 12x - 2x - 2
6x - 2
To solve the problem shown above you must apply the following proccedure:
1. You have the following function given in the problem:
<span> f(x)=x3–3x–2
2. When you give values to the x and plot each point obtained, you obtain the graph shown in the figure attached.
3. Based on the graph and analizing the alternate form:
f(x)=(x-2)(x+1)</span>²
As you can see, there is two roots x=-1, then, you can conclude that the correct answer is the option b, which is:
b) -1<span>
