Answer:
7,228,202%
Step-by-step explanation:
Population at first census in 1979 was 3929
If the Population had increased to 284,000,000 by 2000, the population increase will be;
284,000,000-3929
= 283,996,071
%increase in population = increment/initial population×100%
= 283,996,071/3929×100%
= 7,228,202%
This means that the population has increased by 7,228,202%

Answer: 2 lbs of cherries
Cherries = $5 per pound
Oranges = $2 per pound
Total Cost = $18
Total weight = 6 lb
------------------------------------
Define x and y
------------------------------------
Let x be the number of lb of cherries
Let y be the number of lb of oranges
------------------------------------
Construct equations
------------------------------------
x + y = 6 ---------------------------- (1)
5x + 2y = 18 ---------------------------- (2)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Solve x and y
------------------------------------------------------------------------
From equation (1):
x + y = 6
x = 6 - y
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute x = 6 - y into equation 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5x + 2y = 18
5 (6 - y) + 2y = 18
30 - 5y + 2y = 18
3y = 30 - 18
3y = 12
y = 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute y = 4 into equation (1)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 6
x + 4 = 6
x = 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the weight of cherries and oranges
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cherry = x = 2 lb
Oranges = y = 4 lbs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Alex bought 2 lb of cherries
------------------------------------------------------------------------
14 11/18
I got this answer by doing 30 1/9 + 4 1/3= 34 4/9
Now I subtracted 34 4/9 by 19 5/6 to get the answer 14 11/18
TIP: When adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing mixed numbers change them to an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator and the whole number then adding the numerator
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring will reveal the solution. So we divide the equation by the greatest common factor of the terms and use that factor as the coefficient. In this case the greatest common factor is just x.
2x^2+5x
x(2x+5) so the equation will equal zero when either of those expressions is zero because zero times anything is zero. x=0 and x=-5/2
