MissTica3 years ago

Answer:

a = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

  • 0.5 * a = 10*0.9
  • 0.5a =9  

Step 2: Divide both sides by 0.5

  • \frac{0.5a}{0.5} =\frac{9}{0.5}
  • a = \frac{90}{5}
  • a = 18

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

  • \frac{0.9}{0.5}=\frac{18}{10}
  • \frac{9}{5} =\frac{18}{10}  
  • \frac{18/2}{10/2} =\frac{9}{5}
  • \frac{9}{5} =\frac{9}{5}

Therefore, a = 18.

He equation 2x + 8 = 2(x + 5) has
Illusion [34]

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation 2x + 8 = 2(x + 5) has no solution  as we see if we simplify it:

2x + 8 = 2x + 10

2x - 2x = 10 -8

0 = 2 which is absurd.

A certain forest covers an area of 4600km. Suppose that each year this area decreases by 7.75%. What will the area be after 13 y
wolverine [178]

Answer:

1679.60\ km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

-We can use the exponential decay function to estimate the size after 13 years:

P_t=P_oe^{-rt}

Where:

P_t is the size after t years, t is the time, r is the rate of decay and P_o the original size.

#We substitute and calculate as:

P_t=P_oe^{-rt}\\\\=4600e^{-13\times 0.0775}\\\\=1679.60

Hence, the forest covers 1679.60\ km^2 after 13 years.
