Answer is $506.25.
first month is $100,
second month is 100 times 1.5 which is 150.
thirst month is 150 times 1.5 which is 225.
fourth month is 225 times 1.5 which is 337.5
fifth month is 337.5 times 1.5 which is 506.25

how do you solve this problem. there are approximately 2.1 million deaths per year in country A. Express this quantity as deaths
slamgirl [31]
Well... we know that... there are 365 days in a year, unless is a leap-year, but we'll use 365 anyway

and each day has 24hrs, each hr has 60 minutes

so. let us use those ratios

\bf 2.1million\iff 2.1E6\iff 2,100,000\qquad thus
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2100000\ deaths}{1\ year}\cdot \cfrac{1\ year}{365\ day}\cdot \cfrac{1\ day}{24\ hr}\cdot \cfrac{1\ hr}{60\ minute}

so.. multiply and simplify, cancelling out any like-units atop and bottom

notice, all we do, is use the ratios, in a way, that if we need one unit to be changed, we flip the ratio

for example, to toss away "year" unit, since in the first fraction is at the bottom, then we put it on the top on the ratio, year/year  = 1, effectively cancelling the unit

Answer:

6x - 11y = -13 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's plug in the points to see what sticks.

Start with (-4, -1)

1) 11x - 6y = 11(-4) - 6(-1) = -44 + 6 = -38 \neq 13

2) 6x - 11y = 6(-4) - 11(-1) = -24 + 11 = -13

3) 6x - 7y = 6(-4) - 7(-1) = -24 + 7 = -17 \neq 17

4) 6x - 11y = 6(-4) - 11(-1) = -24 + 11 = -13 \neq 13

The only one that fits is #2.  Let's try the other point to be sure.

2) 6x - 11y = 6(1.5) - 11(2) = 9 - 22 = -13
