3 0

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 5(x-2)

since, f(x)= -20

-20 = 5(x-2)

x-2 = -20/5

x = - 4 + 2

x = -2

The population, P, of a small island was 6380, correct to the nearest 10. Complete the statement about the limits of P. ……………………
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

6375 ≤ P < 6385

Step-by-step explanation:

When rounding to the nearest 10, the unit value is either rounded to 1 and added to the tens value (if value is greater than or equal to 5) or rounded to 0 (if less Than 5)

Hence, the lower limit of a number p which gives 6380 when rounded to the nearest ten would be 6375 ;

The upper limit of the number p in other to give 6380 when rounded to the nearest 10 will be 6384 (< 6385)

I need help with #2 please help and I need the work
stellarik [79]
Laila has to pay $75 regardless of how many shirts she gets but has to pay an additional $8 per shirt. So when you set up your equation you are going to set it equal to c (the total cost). So c=75+8x. The reason there is a variable after 8 is because we aren’t sure how many shirts she’s buying yet.

SOMEONE PLS HELP ME WITH THIS
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

x = 11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

-6 = 0.8x - 15

Add 15 to both sides;

-6 + 15 = 0.8x - 15 + 15

9 = 0.8x

Divide both sides by 0.8;

x = 11.25

PLZ HELP WORTH A LOT OF POINTS AND I HAVE 10 MINUTES!!!!
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The area after 9 years will be 1,234 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating what the area of a certain forest that decreases at a certain percentage would be after some years.

To answer this question, we shall be using an exponential approximation.

Now, to use this exponential approximation, we shall be needing a supporting exponential mathematical equation.

This can be written as;

A = I(1-r)^t

where A is the new area we are looking for

I is the initial area which is 1700 according to the question

r is the rate of decrease which is 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035

t is time which is 9 years according to the question

We plug these values and have the following;

A = 1700(1-0.035)^9

A = 1700(0.965)^9

A = 1,233.66

This is 1,234 km^2 to the nearest square kilometer
