Answer:

New Rural Urban distribution = 56.4 , 43.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total population be = 100

The rural urban distribution = 55.4% & 44.6% of 100 = 55.4 & 44.6 respectively

Given , 15% of rural population shifts to urban. So, 15% of 55.4 ie = 8.31 shift from rural to urban.

Also, 21% of urban population shifts to rural. So, 21% of 44.6 , ie = 9.36 shift from urban to rural.

So, New rural population = old rural - rural to urban shift + urban to rural shift  = 55.4 - 8.31 + 9.36 = 56.39 ≈ 56.4

New urban population = old urban - urban to rural shift + rural to urban shift = 44.6 - 9.36 + 8.31 = 43.55 ≈ 43.4

So, the new distribution is =  56.4 , 43.4

Answer:

44.8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Betsy drove from london to wolverhampton.it took her 2.5 hours at an average speed of 56 miles per hour.Mac drove the same journy by motor bike.It took him 2 hours.Assuming that both took the same route,work out Mac's average speed in mph.

The above question is solved using Proportion method

2.5 hours = 56 mph

2 hours = x mph

Cross Multiply

2.5 hours × x mph = 2 hours × 56 mph

x mph = 2 hours × 56 mph/2.5 hours

x mph = 44.8 mph

Therefore, Mac's average speed = 44.8 mph
