Answer:

27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Town A:

Initial population = 14280

Rate = increase by 160 per year

Let t = time in years

Population is thus :

14280 + 160t - - - (1)

Town B:

Initial population = 24000

Rate = decrease by 200 per year

P = 24000 - 200t - - - (2)

Equate both equations :

14280 + 160t = 24000 - 200t

160t + 200t = 24000 - 14280

360t = 9720

t = 9720 / 360

t = 27

If you travel 40 miles at 45 miles per hour, how many minutes will that take you?
GenaCL600 [577]
Ok so im not good with words and math, but i am going to try my best to explain it. first you will take 45/60 which is the 45 miles per hour. next you will put it equal to 40/x. x is how many minutes. they are set equal to each other because they are the same ratio. (i honestly dont know why you cross multiply, but you just do). you then multiply 40*60 and 45*x. this gives you 2400=45x. you then divide both sides by 45 and get 53 1/3 minutes. or 53 minutes and 20 seconds

Answer:

(x, y ) → (x - 4, y + 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

4 units left in the x- direction means subtract 4 from the x- coordinate

8 units up in the y- direction means add 8 to the y- coordinate

Then the translation rule is

(x, y ) → (x - 4, y + 8 )
