6 0

Answer:

61 is the rate at which the population changes every year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$2000 - 61k = 48$

Required

Interpret 61

A linear equation has the form:

$y = mk + b$

$b + mk = y$

Where m is the rate

By comparison:

$mk = -61k$

$m = -61$

Hence, 61 represents the rate at which the population changes yearly.

The negative sign implies that the populatiin reduces

Arielle wants to make a circular garden. She has enough fencing for a garden circumference of 15 feet. There is a 7-foot gap bet

lesantik [10]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check if the circle with a circumference of 15 feet is smaller then 7 feet. If so it possible.

Formule for circular circumference = pi * diameter, which should be 15.

So pi * d =15

There fore d = 15/pi

d = 4.77464829275686 feet, which is smaller then 7 feet, so it will fit easilly.

What is a common ratio

Umnica [9.8K]

A definition of a common ration Is the number multiplied must be the same for each term in the sequence. The common ratio is the amount between each number in a geometric sequence. To determine the common ration you can just divide each number from the number preceding it in the sequence. Here is an example I found of a common ration to further help you

2,4,8,16

16/8=2 you would then continue to divide to ensure that the pattern is the same for each number

8/4=2

4/2=2 the ratio is the same for each one so the common ration would be 2 I hope this helps could I please get a brainliest :)

The bleachers at the football game are 7/8 full, and 1/2 the fans in the bleachers are rooting for the home team. What fraction

ioda

Answer:

The fraction of the bleachers filled with the home team is $\frac{7}{6}$

Solution:

Given that,

The bleachers at the football game are $\frac{7}{8}$

In those bleachers $\frac{1}{2}$ of the fans are rooting for the home team

So, the fans that are filled with the home team is \left(\left(\frac{7}{8}\right) \times\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right)

Hence, the required fraction is \left(\left(\frac{7}{8}\right) \times\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right)

Removing the brackets we get,

\frac{7 \times 1}{8 \times 2}

= $\frac{7}{6}$

The required fraction is $\frac{7}{6}$

Find the coordinates of a point on the directed segment from (-3,6) to (7,1) that divides it into a ratio of 3:1.

Masja [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide a directed segment, we need to divide the length of the segment, along the x and the y directions separately. Then add the subdivided segment to the starting point of the directed segment (-3,6) to get the point of division.

Let the length be denoted by delta, then

delta = (7,1) - (-3,6) = (10,-5)

Multiply delta by the ratio of 3 / (3+1) = 3/4

(10,-5) * 3/4 = (7.5, -3.75)

Add the subdivided segment to the starting point:

(-3,6) + (7.5, -3.75) = (4.5, 2.25)

So the point of division is (4.5, 2.25)
