Using proportions, it is found that the number of islands that each member will have to visit is given by:
c. 19 islands.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, there are 684 islands, and 36 members, hence the number of islands per member is given by:
n = 684/36 = 19.
Which means that option c is correct.

The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Answer:
1. a =3(2a) +5 and a= 6a+5
2. 47=3(2times 7) +5 and 47 =6 time 7 plus 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
First point - (0,-2)
second - (2,-1)
Third - ( 4, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) dP/dt = kP (1 − P/L)
L is the carrying capacity (20 billion = 20,000 million).
Since P₀ is small compared to L, we can approximate the initial rate as:
(dP/dt)₀ ≈ kP₀
Using the maximum birth rate and death rate, the initial growth rate is 40 mil/year − 20 mil/year = 20 mil/year.
20 = k (6,100)
k = 1/305
dP/dt = 1/305 P (1 − (P/20,000))
(b) P(t) = 20,000 / (1 + Ce^(-t/305))
6,100 = 20,000 / (1 + C)
C = 2.279
P(t) = 20,000 / (1 + 2.279e^(-t/305))
P(10) = 20,000 / (1 + 2.279e^(-10/305))
P(10) = 6240 million
P(10) = 6.24 billion
This is less than the actual population of 6.9 billion.
(c) P(100) = 20,000 / (1 + 2.279e^(-100/305))
P(100) = 7570 million = 7.57 billion
P(600) = 20,000 / (1 + 2.279e^(-600/305))
P(600) = 15170 million = 15.17 billion
