Answer:

100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

70,000 people = 70% of the population.

Divide 70,000 by 70 to get the number of population per 1%:

70000 ÷ 70 = 1000

Therefore, 1000 people represent 1% of the population.

To calculate 100% of the population, multiply the number of people representing 1% by 100:

1000 x 100 = 100,000

Therefore, the population of the town = 100,000

Given Sin x= 0.5, what is cos x?

Svetllana [295]

Sin x = 0.5
sin x = 1/2
sin x = opp/hyp
therefore the ratio of opp/hyp = 1/2, (opp = 1, hyp = 2)

Find the opp side

1² + x² = 2²
1 + x² = 4
x² = 4 -1
x² = 3
x =√3

The opp side is √3

cos x = opp/hyp = √3/2 = 0.87 (round to the nearest hundredths)
