Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright so lets start with an arbitrary amount of students. Just to help us visualize the problem.
Say, 100 students for the first year when it was founded?
So far,
1996 - 100 students
From 96' to 97', it doubles. So:
1996 - 100 students
1997 - 200 students
From 97' to 98', it doubles AGAIN.
1996 - 100 students
1997 - 200 students
1998 - 400 students
So, what the percentage increase from 100, to 400?
Well, 100 x 4 gives us 400, so it's a 400 percent increase.
Answer:
k = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
=
( cross- multiply )
3k = 90 ( divide both sides by 3 )
k = 30
Cups = c
Plates = p
6p + 5c = 23.80 ==> multiply by 6 ==> 36p + 30c = 142.80
7p + 6c = 28.00 ==> multiply by 5 ==> 35p + 30c = 140.00
Now use algebra to have the 30c be on one side and the rest on the other:
36p + 30c = 142.80 | -36p
30c = 142.80 - 36p
35p + 30c = 140.00 | -35p
30c = 140.00 - 35p
Now set them equal to each other about the 30c:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p
Use algebra to solve for p:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p | +36p
142.80 = 140.00 + p | - 140
2.80 = p
Go back to one of the "30c" equations and plug in the value for p:
30c = 140 - 35p
30c = 140 - 35(2.80)
30c = 140 - 98
30c = 42 | /30
c = 42/30
c = 1.4
Plates are $2.80
Cups are $1.40
