What is the percent change from 1800 to 1926

Crank

The percentage change is 6.54%
You have to divide 1800÷1926, then multiply by 100 and you'd get 93.46, then subtract 100-93.46 which equals 6.54% :)

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same time, how many gallons

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Number of gallons of strawberries will she have picked in 2 hours is, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rate are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 4 feet per second or 6 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

Given the statement: Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in half an hour.

⇒ In $\frac{1}{2}$ hour Jen picked $\frac{3}{4}$ gallon of strawberries.

Unit rate per hour = $\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}$

To find the number of gallons will she have picked in 2 hours.

$Number of gallons = unit rate per hours \times 2$

= $\frac{3}{2} \times 2 = 3$

Therefore, the number of gallons will she have picked in 2 hours is, 3

A population of flies grows according to the function p(x)=6(3)^x, where x is measured in weeks. A local spider has set up shop

Doss [256]

The final population of the flies is equal to the growth rate minus the number of flies consumed by the spiders. That is,
final population = 6(3^x) - (4x + 1)
Substituting 2 to the x of the equation above,
final population = 6(3²) - (4(2) + 1) = 45
Thus, the final population of the flies would be 45.

“ write all your answers with a positive exponent so your answer will be in the form of x^# or 1/(x^#)

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5). $\frac{1}{x^{-9}}$ = $\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x^9} }$

= $x^{9}$

6). $\frac{1}{x^{-2}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x^2} }$

= x²

7). $x^{-6}=\frac{1}{x^6}$

8). $\frac{1}{x^{-7}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x^7} }$

= $x^{7}$

9). $x^{-8}=\frac{1}{x^8}$

10). $\frac{1}{x^{-3}}$ = $\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x^{3}}}$

= x³
