Answer:
distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
they distribute the 1 to the 3 and 7 to make it easier
hope this helps
2/3 divided by 4= 2/3x1/4 (flip 4 around). 2x1=2 & 3x4=12. 2/12 or 1/6
I believe the answer is B.
Sorry is it's not but i strongly believe it is!!!
Well, to get rid of them, you would have to add or subtract that fraction to both sides of the equation (making them still equal to each other), so it would just get too complicated to completely get rid of a fraction. That is, if you don't need to.
Year GDP
y (billion $)
1985 577
1986 577+ 3.2% of 577 = 577 * 1.032
1987 577* 1.032 + 3.2% of 577 * 1.032 = 577 * (1.032)^2
1988 577 * (1.032)^3
1989 577 * (1.032)^4
.... .... => model GDP = 577 * (1.032)^ (y - 1985)
Then, for GDP = $3.4 trillion = $3400 billion =>
3400 = 577 (1.032)^ (y - 1985)
Divide both sides by 577:
(1.032)^ (y - 1985) = 3400 / 577 = 5.892548
Apply logarith to both sides:
(y - 1985) log (1.032) = log 5.892548
=> y - 1985 = log (5.892548) / log(1.032) = 56.3 years
=> y = 1985 + 56.3 = 2041.3
Answer: 2041
