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

What is the surface area in square millimeters of the triangular pyramid?
alukav5142 [94]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • 31 mm² is the surface area.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>We know that:</u>

  • Surface area of triangle = 3(1/2 x 4 x 4) + (1/2 x 4 x 3.5)

<u>Work:</u>

  • 3(1/2 x 4 x 4) + (1/2 x 4 x 3.5) mm²
  • => 3(2 x 4) + (2 x 3.5) mm²
  • => 24 + 7 mm²
  • => 31 mm²

Hence, <u>31 mm² is the surface area.</u>

Hoped this helped.

An online furniture store sells chairs for $150 each and tables for $400 each. Every day, the store can ship no more than 30 pie
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

and a max of 20 chairs can be solved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price of chair = $150

Price of table = $400

Let the number of chairs be denoted by c and tables by t,

According to given condition:

t + c = 30 ----------- eq1

t(150) + c(400) = 6500 ------ eq2

Given that:

10 tables were sold so:

t = 10

Putting in eq1

c = 20 (max)

As the minimum target is $6500 so from eq2

10(150) + 400c = 6500

400c = 6500 - 1500

400c = 5000

c = 5000/400

c = 12.5

by rounding off

c = 13

So a minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

i hope it will help you!
