Given:
Population of a colony in 2000 = 250
Population of a colony in 2004 = 400
To find:
The average rate of change.
Solution:
Let y be the population of the colony at x year.
The population of a colony grows from 250 in the year 2000 to 400 in the year 2004. So, the two points are (2000,250) and (2004,400).
Formula for slope or average rate of change is




Therefore, the average rate of change of population is 37.5.
Answer:
x = y/m - a
Step-by-step explanation:
divide both side by m
y/m = x + a
subtract a from both sides
y/m - a = x
switch sides.
x = y/m - a
We are given that the cost of each shirt = $12.25
It is given that she bought total 'x' shirts, each of cost $12,25.
So, the cost of 'x' shirts is dollars
Also, there is a shipping charge of $3.99
So, the total cost of 'x' shirts is
Since, the shirts cost her total $77.49.
We have the equation,
12.25x + 3.99 = 77.49
The formula of a volume of a cube:

We have 
Substitute:
![a^3=474.552\to a=\sqrt[3]{474.552}\\\\a=7.8\ m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%5E3%3D474.552%5Cto%20a%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B474.552%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Ca%3D7.8%5C%20m)
Answer: The length of each side of the box is equal 7.8 m.
