I would use elimination
2x+3y = 7
2x-y = -5
Subtract those equations
4y = 12
Y = 3
Now plug in 3 for any y value
2x - 3 = -5
2x = -2
X = -1, y = 3
If the population decreases by 2% each year, that can be represented by multiplying the population by 0.98 mathematically. So if it decreases by 2% each year, an equation we can use is:
P*(0.98)^t,
where P is the current population and t is the number of years.
So in 2020, that would be 10 years from now, so the population would be:
1759*(0.98)^10 = 1437.23
Or about 1437 people.
How long till it is less than 1000? We can set up an inequality and solve:
1759*(0.98)^t < 1000
(0.98)^t < 1000/1759
t*ln(0.98) < ln(1000/1759)
t > ln(1000/1759)/(ln(0.98)) (swap the sign because ln(0.98) is a negative #)
t > 27.95
So the population would be below 1000 in about 28 years, or 2038.
The first, second, fifth, and seventh are all true
Answer:
-28
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(7)=-28
Answer:
B. 1.2 x 
Step-by-step explanation:
Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 650,000,000 can be written in scientific notation as 6.5 ✕ 10^8. Or, in this case it's the opposite since we have a negative number. Since it's a decimal it's multiplied by 10 still but the exponent is negative. All we need to do to find what the exponent would be in this case is to count the number of zeros before the "12." There are 4 zeros before the 12. So your exponent would be -4. Now all we need to do is write out "equation" per say.
1.2 x 10^-4
