Question:

Suppose that the populations of the United States and China both increase by 12 million people in one year. What would be the relative change for each country? Answer to the nearest tenth of a percent (1 decimal place). Make sure that you fill in each answer area before checking "How Did I Do?".

If you assume that the U.S. population is about 300 million, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.

If you assume that China has about 1 billion people, an increase of 12 million would result in a relative change of Number %.

Answer:

The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent population with p. So, we have:

United States

$\triangle p = 12\ million$

$p_1 =300\ million$

China

$\triangle p = 12\ million$

$p_1 =1\ billion$

Required

Determine the relative change for each country

Relative change, C is calculated as:

$C = \frac{\triangle p}{p} * 100\%$

For United States

$C = \frac{12\ million}{300\ million} * 100\%$

$C = \frac{12}{300} * 100\%$

$C = \frac{12 * 100}{300}\%$

$C = \frac{1200}{300}\%$

$C = 4\%$

For China

$C = \frac{12\ million}{1\ billion} * 100\%$

$C = \frac{12}{1000} * 100\%$

$C = \frac{12* 100}{1000} \%$

$C = \frac{1200}{1000} \%$

$C = 1.2\%$

The relative change of the United States and China is 4% and 1.2%, respectively.

A discount store takes 50% off of the retail price of a desk. For the store's holiday sale, it takes an additional 20% off of al

Serhud [2]

We are given the retail price of desk as $320. The store takes 50% off of the retail price of desk, then its price would become half of the original.

So its new price would be $160.

Now it says that it takes an additional 20% off of all furniture on store's holiday sale. So we need to cut off 20% from new price $160.

Holiday discount = 20% of $160 = 0.2 × 160 = 32.

Final selling price would be = $160 - $32 = $128.

So $128 is the final answer.

Pre-Cal Help?!?! Solve e^x^2-9=1

andrey2020 [161]

E^x^2 - 9 = 1
e^x^2 = 1 + 9 = 10
Ln e^x^2 = Ln 10
x^2 = Ln 10
x = sqrt (Ln 10) = 1.517
x = 1.517

Factor the perfect square trinomial 25x^2-60x+36

zaharov [31]

Since it is a perfect square trinomial, it is of the form:

a^2x^2-2abx+b^2 which simplifies to (ax-b)^2

Therefore:

sqrt(a)=sqrt(25)=5

sqrt(b)=sqrt(36)=6

Plug in a and b:

(ax-b)^2

(5x-6)^2

Test to make sure it did fit the formula:

-2abx=-60 (where x is 1)

-2(5)(6)=-60

-2(30)=-60

-60=-60

Answer:

(5x-6)^2
