Using an linear function, we find that by 2020 only 11% of all American adults believe that most qualified students get to attend college.
-----------------------------------------
A decaying linear function has the following format:

In which
- A(0) is the initial amount.
- m is the slope, that is, the yearly decay.
- In 2000, 45% believed, thus,

- Decaying by 1.7 each year, thus
.
The equation is:

It will be 11% in t years after 2000, considering t for which A(t) = 11, that is:




2000 + 20 = 2020
By 2020 only 11% of all American adults believe that most qualified students get to attend college.

Answer:
10 1/2 sticks, or 11 sticks with half a stick left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
If every student (and there are 14 students) needs 3/4 stick of butter, the equation is 3/4 x 14 = 10 1/2
Answer:
D.3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2y=10(given)
2x+y=5
y=5-2x-----(1)
y=2x-1------(2)(given)
Since the left side of the equations are the the same,
5-2x=2x-1
4x=6
x=1.5
Sub x=1.5 into eq(1),
y = 5-2(1.5) = 5-3 = 2
so, x+y = 1.5+2 = 3.5
Answer: 375
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given the information that there are 250 bricks used to build a wall 20 feet high, the number of brick used per feet will be:
= 250/20
= 12.5 bricks per feet.
Therefore, the number of bricks that will be used to buld a wall that is 30 fet high will be:
= 12.5 × 30
= 375 bricks.
Therefore, 375 bricks would be used.
CONSECUTIVE NUMBERS; x, x+1
(x+1)4=3(x)+23
4x+4=3x+23
4x-3x=23-4
x=19
x+1=20
THEREFORE the consecutive numbers are 19&20
