Answer:

In 2009

Step-by-step explanation:

If the wren population is going down by 40% each year, that means the following year's population is just 60% of what was in the previous year. This means that what we have to do is multiply the previous year's number by 0.6 to get the current year's population. If we take the data from 2004 as 100%, we have the following numbers:

2004 = 100%

2005 = 60 % (100 * .6)

2006 = 36 % (60 * .6)

2007 = 21.6 % (36 * .6)

2008 = 12.96 % (21.6 * .6)

2009 = 7.776% (12.96 * .6)

This means that 2009 will show that the wren population is less than 10% (7.776%) than what it was in the year 2004.

I hope this helps! :D

Answer:

2009

Step-by-step explanation:

On June 1, 2004 we can say that there were <u>100%</u> of the wrens.

If the number decreases by 40% each year, then each year there will be 60% of the previous years number.  To find 60%, multiply by 0.6 (since 60% = 60/100 = 0.6)

June 1, 2004 = 100%

June 1, 2005 = 100% x 0.6 = 60%

June 1, 2006 = 60% x 0.6 = 36%

June 1, 2007 = 36% x 0.6 = 21.6%

June 1, 2008 = 21.6% x 0.6 = 12.96%

June 1, 2009 = 12.96% x 0.6 = 7.776%

Therefore, the census shows that the number of wrens is less than 10% in the year 2009.

Let's say you only have three points: A, B, and C.
The first step is asking you to construct a parallel of AB through C. You should start by placing a ruler connecting points A and B, then use a set square and rest it on the ruler that's connecting points A and B. Slide the set square over the ruler so it meets point C. Measure at which distance is point C. Then slide the set square to one or another side of the ruler and mark a new point with the same distance of point C from AB. Now connect points C and the new one by tracing a line that passes on both points. That line will be parallel to AB.
Now repeat the process for the other parallels. By the end, you should have three lines that when extend cross each other and form a triangle.

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

15 divided by 6 is 2.5, and so is 32.5/13, so 2.5 is your scale factor. Multiply 10 by 2.5 for 25, which is the length of side <em>XY</em>.
