Answer:

y=9 and x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

ok looking at what they give us in the question we can see that we have two equations. to solve for it be will need to combine them together

note that because they use the word sum we know it's addition

y= x-6

x+y=24

now that we have these we can substitute y=x-6 for the y in our addition equaution such that we have it in terms of one variable:

x+ (x-6) = 24

2x-6=24

2x=30

x=15

now going back we can find Y

15+ y = 24

y=9

irina [24]

Answer:

If you go to a website that has a red (or orange) triangle with an exclamation mark next to the link, it's an untrusted site. The things you list (your phone is being attacked and then said something with 26..) are likely to be scam ads (probably viruses). Therefore,  I do not recommend you to click the ads or enter that site again.

In 2009, a school population was 1,700. By 2017 the population had grown to 2,500. Assume the population is changing linearly. W
qaws [65]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is changing linearly. This means that the population is increasing by a particular value n every year.

From 2009 to 2017, there are 8 increases and so, the population increases by 8n.

The population increased from 1700 to 2500. Therefore, the population increase is:

2500 - 1700 = 800

This implies that:

8n = 800

=> n = 800/8 = 100

The average population growth per year is 100.

Find the annual percentage rate of change for the population of Oregon. In 2000, there were 4.8
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The annual percentage rate of change for the population of Oregon is of 8.125%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total percentage change:

Change multiplied by 100 and divided by the initial value.

Change: 8.7 - 4.8 = 3.9 million

Initial value: 4.8

Percentage change: 3.9*100/4.8 = 81.25%

Annual percentage rate of change

81.25% during 10 years(from 2000 to 2010).

So, per year

81.25%/10 = 8.125%

The annual percentage rate of change for the population of Oregon is of 8.125%.
