Answer:
Approximately 23,433 children will have cancer.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/1500 can be simplified to 1/500, which can also be written as 0.002. To find the number of children who have cancer, we do 11,721,722 * 0.002, which gives us 23,433.444 which we can round to 23,433.
Answer:
Carlos is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a line through the origin has a slope of 
. Carlos thinks the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin will be 3.
We know that the slope of a perpendicular line to a given line is always negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.
The slope of the perpendicular line at the origin will be negative reciprocal of .
Let us find negative reciprocal of as:
Since the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin is 
, therefore, Carlos is incorrect.
This is an equation of exponential decay
y(t) = a b^ t where a is the initial amount
b is the decay factor
t is the time in years
b is found by taking 1 and subtracting the percent it decreases in decimal form
Letting t =4
y(t) = 260 million * ( 1- .011) ^ 4
=248.7473796 million
=24874737.96
Rounding to a whole number
= 24874738
Answer:
19 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
A penny is not that large, and you can fit multiple pennies in the palm of your hand. This means that the only reasonable measurement is 19 mm, (& 8 cm, but that is only if you have really large hands). Therefore, (A) is your choice.

Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we first need to combine like terms:
Simplify further:
Divide by -12 on both sides to get:
To check the solution, plug x back into the original equation and check if we get the correct answer:
Thus, it checks out and our answer is correct.
