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

Answer:

3/8 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 tablespoons of sugar = 1/16 * 2 = 1/8 cup of sugar.

1/2 cup = 4/8 cups.

So the extra sugar required = 4/8 - 1/8

= 3/8 cups.

Find the x-intercept of parabola with vertex (1,-17) and y-intercept (0,16)?

Ad libitum [116K]

Y=a(x-1)^2 -17 is the equation of the parabola.
at (0,16), 16=a(0-1)^2 -17. Solve for a = 33.
Equation is then y=33(x-1)^2-17 so when y=0,
(x-1)^2 = 17/33
x-1 = + and - square root of 17/33
x = 1.7177 and 0,2823 as the intercepts

Find the length of the missing

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

using pythagoras theorem

here 15 is hypotenuse since it is opposite 0f 90 degree

9 and x are the other smaller sides of a triangle

according to pythagoras thorem the sum of square of two smaller sides of a triangle is equal to the square of hypotenuse. So,

9^2 + x^2 = 15^2

81 + x^2 = 225

x^2 = 225 - 81

x^2 = 144

x = $\sqrt{144$

x = 12
