xeze [42]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2 inches per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/2 hours is equivalent to 150 minutes.

Set up a proportion; let x equal inches of rain

\frac{5}{150}=\frac{x}{60}

Cross multiply -> 150x=300

Divide both sides by 150 to get -> x=2

A city has a population of 280,000 people. suppose that each year the population grows by 4.5% . what will the population be aft
Anastasy [175]

Given that population of the city is 280000.

Rate of growth of the population = r = 4.5% = 0.045

We have to find population after 15 years so time

t = 15

We can use growth formula to find the required population which is given by :

A=P(1+r)^t

Where P= starting population = 280000

r= rate of growth = 0.45

t= time = 15

now plug these values into above formula.

A=280000(1+0.45)^{15}

A=280000(1.45)^{15}

A=280000(263.34194176)

A=73735743.6928

Hence population after 15 years will be approx 73735743.

Write the equation of each line in slope-intercept form and identify the slope. 4x=2+y
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

y = 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 4x=2+y

First, subtract 2 on both sides to isolate out y. (Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b)

Once subtracted, you get: 4x-2=y

Rearrange it, and you get: y=4x-2

Isolating a variable in two equations is easiest when one of them has a coefficient 1.
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

3A-B=5

2A+3B=-4

We need  isolate one of the variables, such that it appears by itself on one side of the equation.

Isolating a variable in two equations is easiest when one of them has a coefficient 1.

In equation 1, coefficient of B is 1. So, we can easily isolate one of the variables.

The equation is

3A-B=5

Subtract 3A from both sides.

-B=5-3A

Multiply both sides by -1.

B=3A-5

Therefore, the correct option is C.
