Answer:

  • 7.321 × 10³

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The population of Rhode Island:</u>

  • 1.059 × 10⁶

<u>The population of the Earth:</u>

  • 7.753 × 10⁹

<u>About how many times larger is earth's population:</u>

  • 7.753 × 10⁹ ÷ 1.059 × 10⁶ = 7.753/1.059 × 10⁹⁻⁶ ≈ 7.321 × 10³

Let's solve :

  • \dfrac{7.753 \times  {10}^{9} }{1.059 \times 10 {}^{6} }

  • 7.321\times 10  {}^{3}

  • \approx7321

hence, population Earth is approximately 7321 times the population of Rhode Island.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-2, -5)and (-1, 1)?
suter [353]
First find the slope(m)



Slope= y2-y1/x2-x1= (1-(-5))/(-1-(-2))= 6/1 = 6

Then find the y intercept (move up six and right one from (-1, 1) to get (0, 7)

The y-intercept is y=7

Now make the equation

Y= slope(x) + y-intercept

Y=6x+7

The property taxes on a house were $600. What was the tax rate if the house was valued at $100,000? Follow the problem solving a
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Based on the information given the tax rate if the house was valued at $100,000 is 60%.

Let $600= x%

Let $100,000=100%

Let the tax rate=x

Proportion:

600/100,000=x/100

Hence,

x=600×100/100,000

x=60,000/100,000

x=60/100

x=0.6%×100

x=60%

Inconclusion  the tax rate if the house was valued at $100,000 is 60%.

Jimmy is putting up a fence around his rectangular garden. One side of the garden is 20 feet long, and b represents the width
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

(40+2b)cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

Jimmy is putting up a fence around his rectangular garden. One side of the garden is 20 feet long, and b represents the width, How much fencing material will he need.

To get the amount of fencing material needed, we will find the perimeter of the fence

perimeter of the fence = 2(L+W)

L is the length

W is the width

Given

Length = 20feet

Width = b feet

perimeter of the fence = 2(20+b)

perimeter of the fence = 2(20) + 2b

perimeter of the fence = 40+2b cm

Hence the amount of material needed will be (40+2b)cm

A poster is to have an area of 240 in^2 with 1 inch margins at the bottom and sides and a 2 inch margin at the top. Find the exa
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

  4√10 inches wide by 6√10 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

"Poster area" problems have an interesting general solution. The "printed area" is maximized, or the "poster area" is minimized, when the ratio of poster dimensions is equal to the ratio of margin dimensions.

Here, the top/bottom margins total 3 inches, and the side/side margins total 2 inches. That is, the printed area will be maximized when the poster has a width : height aspect ratio of 2 : 3. If w represents the width, then the total area is ...

  (w)(3/2w) = 240 . . . . square inches

  w^2 = 160

  w = √160 = 4√10 . . . . width in inches

Then the height is ...

  height = (3/2)w = (3/2)(4√10) = 6√10 . . . . height, inches

_____

<em>Graphical solution</em>

A graphing calculator gives the same result for x=width. Poster width is about 12.649 inches (=4√10), and printed area is a maximum of about 170.1 square inches.

_____

<em>Calculus solution</em>

Let x represent the width of the poster. Then x-2 is the width of the printed area. The height of the poster will be 240/x, and the height of the printed area will be (240/x)-3. We want to maximize the printed area ...

  a = (x -2)(240/x -3)

which means we want to find the value of x where the area derivative is zero.

  a = 240 -480/x -3x +6

  da/dx = 0 = 480/x^2 -3

Solving for x, we get ...

  x^2 = 480/3 = 160

  x = √160 = 4√10 . . . . . poster width, as above
