Fill in the missing numbers to create equivalent ratios.
jasenka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to find missing numbers in equivalent ratios is to multiply the means (the first denominator and the second numerator) and multiply the extremes (the first numerator and the second denominator). It sounds really complicated, but it is quite simple =)

2/5 = x/10

The means in this equivalent ration are 5 and x. The extremes are 2 and 10.

5x = 20

Now solve =)

x = 4

That was pretty simple. Let's move on to the next one. Do exactly the same thing here:

4/10 = 6/x

60 = 4x

15 = x

That was pretty simple, too! Keep going!

6/15 = x/25

15x = 150

x = 10

All of these should be equal, so check them by dividing:

2/5 = 0.4

4/10 = 0.4

6/15 = 0.4

10/25 = 0.4

They all check out, so these are your answers: 2/5, 4/10, 6/15, 10/25


I really hope this helps you =)

Tacoma's population in 2000 was about 200 thousand, and has been growing by about 8% each year. If this continues, what will Tac
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Tacoma's population in 2014 will be 587,439 people

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth function  is given by the formula

y=a(1+r)^x

where

y is Tacoma's population in thousand

x is the number of years since 2000

r is the rate of change

a is the initial value

we have

a=200\\r=8\%=8/100=0.08

substitute

y=200(1+0.08)^x

y=200(1.08)^x

what will Tacoma's population be in 2014?

Find the value of x

x=2014-2000=14\ years

substitute the value of x

y=200(1.08)^{14}=587.439\ thousand

therefore

Tacoma's population in 2014 will be 587,439 people
