In the equation

, a is the initial amount and b is the growth factor. So our initial amount is 30 and our growth factor is 8.3. Your correct choice for this is A.
Set up the proportion with the numbers on top equalling the cars and the numbers on the bottom representing the trucks.

c equals the number of unknown cars.
To solve the proportion, cross multiply (multiply 8 by 9 and 36 by c) and solve for c.
72 = 36c
Divide 36 from both sides to get the answer.
c = 2
If there are 9 trucks, there are 2 cars.
You can check this by dividing 2 by 9, and dividing 8 by 36. Since they both equal the same number, this answer is correct.
Hope this helps =)

Answer: 2584
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find N with 2584 and 4181.
4181 - 2584
= 1597
We can also check our answer by adding 1597 and 987
1597 + 987
= 2584
answer:
x=74 y=27
steps:
triangle in the middle is
180-126 = 54
180-85 = 95
180-149 = 31
126=2x+1+31
126=2x+32
2x=94
x=74
126+2y=180
2y=54
y=27
