Answer:

10,000 * (square miles in the city)

Step-by-step explanation:

You've been given a population of people for every square mile (10,000) and you're trying to figure out how many people live in the city.

To convert people per a square mile into people, you'll need to know how many square miles you have. I assume you've been given this as the size of the city or how many square miles the city takes up. Just multiply the amount of people per a square mile by the amount of square miles in the city, and it'll give you the population of people in every square mile of the city (the population).

Note:

This is people per a square mile, or in other words, for every square mile of city, 10,000 people live there. If you have 2 square miles of city, then 2 * 10,000 = 20,000 people live there.

Combine like terms 7a - a+ 16 = ?

dexar [7]

6a+16

Explanation:
If there's just a variable, there's an understood 1 in front of it. So what that really says is:

7a-1a+16

So, you combine the a's. 7a minus 1a is 6a. Same as 7-1,but you have a variable stuck on the end of it.

6a+16

Answer:

$x=\frac{5}{k}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

$\text{log}_{3^k}243=x$

By using the law of logarithm,

$(3^k)^x=243$

$3^{kx}=243$

$3^{kx}=3^5$

By comparing exponents on both the sides of the equation,

$kx=5$

$x=\frac{5}{k}$

Therefore, $x=\frac{5}{k}$ will be the answer.

Transform the following polar equation into an equation in rectangular coordinates: r=2 cos theta A. x + y = 2 B. y = 2x C. x =

Mila [183]

$r=2\cos\theta$
$r^2=2r\cos\theta$
$\implies x^2+y^2=2x$
$x^2-2x+y^2=0$
$x^2-2x+1+y^2=1$
$(x-1)^2+y^2=1$

Select all that apply.

Mashutka [201]

4% is not equivalent to 40%
0.4 is equivalent to 40%. Just move the decimal two places to the right.
2/5 is equivalent to 0.4, which in turn is equivalent to 40%. 2 divided by 5=0.4
The answers are all but 4%
