I believe it is growth, decay would be the other way around.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In similar triangles, corresponding sides are in same ratio
Cross multiply,
7*(x + 8) = 6*(3x -9 )
7x + 7*8 = 6*3x - 6*9
7x + 56 = 18x - 54
56 = 18x - 7x -54
56 = 11x - 54
11x - 54 = 56
11x = 56 +54
11x = 110
x = 110 /11
x = 10
PR = 3x -9
= 30 - 9
PR = 21
Answer:
15/6 pieces of pizza were eaten. Which is equivalent to 2.5. So 2.5 pizzas were eaten.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just did the math. Convert 4 1/3 to 0/6. So 1 times 2 is 2, and 3 times 2 is 6. Which would give you 4 2/6 which has the same denominator as 1 5/6.
Answer:
Females = 17 and males = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Total no of students in the class = 40
Let no. of females = x
No. of males = 6+x
ATQ,
Total students = males + females
40 = x+6+x
40-6 = 2x
34 = 2x
x = 17
Hence, there are 17 females and (6+17= 23) males.
Solve for x
Divide both sides by -4
X= - 10/4
Now simplify by dividing top and bottom by 2
X= -5/2 or - 2 1/2
