<u>Equation for the Highland population</u>
<u>Equation for the Lowville population</u>
<u>Populations are equal after</u>
- 12200 + 300x = 21000 - 250x
- 300x + 250x = 21000 - 12200
- 550x = 8800
- x = 8800/550
- x = 16 years

Answer: 41
Step-by-step explanation:
I think it’s forty one because each child painted one and there are forty one flower pots. Besides that much information wasn’t given so it is most likely 41 sorry if it wasn’t much help
Answer:
00:13 mm:ss
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 seconds in a minute. This fact can be used to convert the time period(s) to minutes and seconds either before or after you do the subtraction.
<h3>Difference</h3>
It is often convenient to do arithmetic with all of the numbers having the same units. Here, we are given two values in seconds and asked for their difference.
100 s - 87 s = (100 -87) s = 13 s
The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.
<h3>Conversion</h3>
If you like, the numbers can be converted to minutes and seconds before the subtraction. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the number of minutes is found by dividing seconds by 60. The remainder is the number of seconds that will be added to the time in minutes:
87 seconds = ⌊87/60⌋ minutes + (87 mod 60) seconds
= 1 minute 27 seconds
100 seconds = ⌊100/60⌋ minutes + (100 mod 60) seconds
= 1 minute 40 seconds
Then the difference is found in the same way we would find a difference involving different variables. (A unit can be treated as though it were a variable.)
(1 min 40 s) -(1 min 27 s) = (1 -1 min) + (40-27 s) = 0 min 13 s
The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.
