Answer:

Growth\ Rate = 0.2000 --- Year 1 to 2

Growth\ Rate = 0.3333 --- Year 2 to 3

Growth\ Rate = 0.0625 --- Year 3 to 4

Average\ Growth\ Rate = 19.86\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\begin{array}{cc}{Year\ 1} & {100} & {Year\ 2} & {120} & {Year\ 3} & {160} & {Year\ 4} & {170} \ \end{array}

Solving (a): Growth Rates between each year

For Year 1 to 2.

Growth\ Rate = \frac{Year\ 2 - Year\ 1}{Year\ 1}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{120-100}{100}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{20}{100}

Growth\ Rate = 0.2000

For Year 2 to 3.

Growth\ Rate = \frac{Year\ 3 - Year\ 2}{Year\ 2}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{160-120}{120}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{40}{120}

Growth\ Rate = 0.3333

For Year 3 to 4.

Growth\ Rate = \frac{Year\ 4 - Year\ 3}{Year\ 3}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{170-160}{160}

Growth\ Rate = \frac{10}{160}

Growth\ Rate = 0.0625

Solving (b): The average growth rate

This is calculated as by calculating the mean value of the growth rates in (a)

Average\ Growth\ Rate = \frac{1}{3}(0.2000 + 0.3333 + 0.0625)

Average\ Growth\ Rate = \frac{1}{3}(0.5958)

Average\ Growth\ Rate = \frac{1}{3}*0.5958

Average\ Growth\ Rate = 0.1986

Convert to percentage

Average\ Growth\ Rate = 0.1986 * 100\%

Average\ Growth\ Rate = 19.86\%

Solve the equation, 4 - (x + 1) = 6.<br><br> x = -3<br> x = 3<br> x = -9<br> x = 9
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative in front of the parenthesis changes the signs of the numbers and variables inside the parenthesis. We can rewrite as

4 - x - 1 = 6 and

3 - x = 6 so

- x = 3 and

x = -3

Division of fractions 12/15 divided by 1/5
zimovet [89]
12/15÷1/5

when dividing fractions, all you have to do is multiply the first number by the second number's reciprocal
(reciprocal is denominator over numerator)

12/15÷1/5
12/15×5/1

remember when multiplying fractions it's the the two numerators multiplied together over the two denominators multiplied

12/15×5/1
60/15
4

The answer is 4
