Answer: Town 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Town 1's population is growing at a factor of 1.02 which means that it is increasing by 2% a year.

Town 2 is growing at a factor of 0.999 which means that it is decreasing at a rate of:

= 1 - 0.999

= 0.1%

Town 3's population is increasing by 150 a year and town 4 is 200 people a year.

Town 1 will eclipse them all eventually because it is <u>growing proportionally at 2%</u>.

Towns 3 and 4 will eventually see 150 and 200 people fall below 2% of their town's population which means they will be growing at a slower rate than Town 1.

Suponhamos que temos x casos confirmados de coronavírus e y casos suspeitos. A - Se triplicar os casos confirmados e cair a meta
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

[3x + (y/2)]

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

Suppose we have x confirmed cases of coronavirus and y suspected cases. A - If the confirmed cases triple and half of the suspects fall, we will have the following expression to represent the total number of cases:

Solution

Number of confirmed cases = x

Number of suspected cases = y

Number of confirmed cases triples and becomes 3x

Half of the suspected cases fall and becomes (y/2)

Total number of cases then becomes

[3x + (y/2)]

In Portugese/Em português

Número de casos confirmados = x

Número de casos suspeitos = y

O número de casos confirmados triplica e se torna 3x

Metade dos casos suspeitos cai e se torna (y / 2)

O número total de casos passa a ser

[3x + (y / 2)]

If Mike can tune 4 cars in 3 hours. How many cars can Mike tune in 8 hours?
motikmotik

Answer:

10 2/3 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio

4 cars            x cars

------------- = -----------

3 hours          8 hours

Using cross products

4 *8 = 3 *x

32 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

32/3 = 3x/3

10 2/3 cars
