−1
Explanation:
Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).
Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:
20 + 5= 25
So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:
25 − 6=19
So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:
19 − 20= −1
and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6:
+5 −6 = −1
Answer:
The population of the town at the end of 2017 was 65,550.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of the town was 60,000 in the beginning of 2016.
In 2016, the total population is increased by 15%.
Therefore the population is increased by 9000 and the population of the town at the end of 2016 was
In 2017, the total population is decreased by 5%.
Therefore the population is decreased by 3450 and the population of the town at the end of 2017 was
Therefore the population of the town at the end of 2017 was 65,550.
Answer:
The answer would be 35066 :)
Step-by-step explanation:
(y+5554) + y = 64578
Combine like terms
2y = 64578-5554
2y = 59024
y = 29512
x = 29512 + 5554 = 35066
