Answer: 0.02 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the per capita birth rate and the per capita death rate, the per capita growth rate can be calculated as:

= per capita birth rate - per capita death rate

= 0.11 - 0.09

= 0.02/year

= 2% per year

How do you distribute 2(x + 5)
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

2x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

to distribute you take the number on the outside of the parenthesis and multiply it with the individual values inside the parenthesis. So first you would multiply 2 times X which gives you 2x then 2 times 5 which gives you 10, then your answer would be 2x+10

Michael is 12 years older than Brandon. Seventeen years ago, Michael was 4 times as old as Brandon.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

21 yrs old

Step-by-step explanation:

m= michael age

b=Brandon age

m=b+12

m-17=4(b-17)= 4b-68 --»»m = 4b -51

//put b+12 instead m// b+12=4b-51

3b=63 --»»b=21

Brandon age is 21

Michael age is 33

A triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 1/5 and then rotated 90 degree clockwise about the origin. Why is the image similar t
yan [13]
<u><em>Answers:</em></u>
The corresponding angles of the triangles are congruent
The image is a reduction of the pre-image
Neither the dilation nor the rotation change the shape of the triangle

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>For shapes to be similar:</u>
1- there should be a ratio between the sides
2- angles in first shape should be congruent to angles in second shape

Now, a scale factor of 0.2 means that the sides of the image are 0.2 of the length of the original shape. However, angles are not changes

<u>Let's check the choices:</u>
<u>1- </u><span><u>The corresponding sides of the triangles are congruent:</u>
This option is incorrect as dilation changes the lengths of the sides

<u>2- </u></span><span><u>The corresponding angles of the triangles are congruent:</u>
This option is correct as neither dilation nor rotation alters the measures of the angles

<u>3- </u></span><span><u>The corresponding sides of the image are 5 times as long as those of the pre-image:</u>
This option is incorrect as the sides of the image are only 0.2 times as long as those of the pre-image

<u>4- </u></span><span><u>The image is a reduction of the pre-image:</u>
This option is correct as the sides of the image are 0.2 times those of the pre-image which means that the shape is reduced

<u>5- </u></span><span><u>Neither the dilation nor the rotation change the shape of the triangle:</u>
This option is correct as both dilation and rotation are rigid transformations that do not alter the shape of the triangle (a triangle remains a triangle only with different side lengths)

<u>6- </u></span><u>The rotation reduces the size of the triangle:</u>
This option is incorrect as rotation does not alter the size of the shape. It only changes its position

Hope this helps :)
