Answer: 1,599,960

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population of crawfish in a section of the Louisiana bayou increased from 900,000 to 1.2 million between 2010 and 2011. The percentage increase in population will be:

= (1.2 million - 900000) / 900000 × 100

= 300000/900000 × 100

= 33.33%

Since the population increases by the same percentage between 2011 and 2012, then the population in 2012 will be:

= (100% + 33.33%) × 1.2 million

= 133.33% × 1.2 million

= 1.3333 × 1.2 million

= 1,599,960

The population in 2012 is 1,599,960

Explain why the following statement are equivalent 4(x+y)=4x+4y
LekaFEV [45]
It is equivalent because of the distributive property. If you multiply 4 by x and y, you get 4x and 4y.

4x + 4y = 4x + 4y
