Answer:
Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 27/4 is equal
to 6 3/4 or six and three quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Answer:
</u>
The population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured. If the current population is 27,900 .Previous population of city was 45000.
<u>
Solution:
</u>
Given that current population of city is 27900.
Also, population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured.
Let assume that population of city when it was last measured = x
Decreased of 38% means x-38% of x . we can write this as,



So current population is 
Equating above expression to the given value of current population, we get


x=45000
Hence previous population of city was 45000.
We know that,
Volume of sphere = 4/3πr³
72 = 4/3 × 22/7 × r³
72 × 21/88 = r³
³√17.18 = r
2.58 cm = r

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:consecutive integers are represented by x, x+1 , so for this problem the greater one is represented by x + 1.
Now you need to translate the problem. the greater is seven less than 1/3 the smaller
---> x + 1 = (1/3)*x - 7 ---> now solve for x (the smaller) and x+1 (the greater)
***hint: to get rid of fractions in an equation you can always multiply EVERYTHING by the denominator , 3 in this case
x = -2
y = 1
let's multiply second equation by 4 to get a common coefficient of y variable.
16x-8y=-40
add the equations
3×+8y=2
16x-8y=-40
----------------
3x+16x = -38
19x = -38
x = -2
substitute x
3×-2 + 8y = 2
-6 + 8y = 2
8y = 2+6
y = 1
check the answer
-6+8 = 2
-8-2= -20
