Answer:

r = -1 9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 1/4 = r - 4/5

Switch sides:

r - 4/5 = -2 1/4

Add 4/5 to both sides.

r = -2 1/4 + 4/5

Change the mixed numeral into a fraction:

r = -9/4 + 4/5

The LCD is 20.

r = -45/20 + 16/20

r = -29/20

r = -1 9/20

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.

In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.

In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.

In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.

Thanks to a new conservation program, a population with only 200 individuals at the beginning of the year is growing exponential
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

0.3 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of newborn per year: 200*0.5 = 100

Number of death per year:  200*0.2= 40

So, the difference between birth and death = 100-40 = 60 (people)

and the growth rate during the year is: 60/200 = 0.3
