Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing I did was divide 42 by 7 to get the equivilant for 1.

42 ^ 7 = 6

So,

1 = 6

This means that all you have to do to get the amount of men is to multiply 4 by 6.

4 * 6 = 24

So, there are 24 men and 42 females.

Hope this helps!

a new car worth 37000 is depreciating in value by 2000 per year. how many years will the car be worth 17000

dangina [55]

37000 (total price of the car) - 17000 (the target value) = 20,000 (the difference)

20,000 (difference) / 2000 (how much it depreciates per year) = 10 (the amount of years it will take)

Verify:

17000 + (2000 * 10) = 37000? Yes.
