Answer:

  (9/10)/(2/5) = ratio of work times

  2 1/4 times as long

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  2/5 hours work in the morning

  9/10 hours work in the afternoon

Find:

  an equation for how many times as long was afternoon work compared to morning work

  the equation solution

Solution:

  a/m = r . . . . ratio of afternoon work to morning work

  (9/10)/(2/5) = r . . . equation

  (9/10)/(4/10) = r

  9/4 = r = 2 1/4 . . . solution

The builder worked 2 1/4 times as long in the afternoon as in the morning.

Alex's house (point F) lies on the same street as her school (point H). Alex's bus stop (point G) lies between her house and her school. Given FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters. What is the value of x in meters?

FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters.

FH = FG + GH

1200 = 2x + 1000

1200 - 1000 = 2x

200.= 2x

x.= 200/2

x = 100

explain how to solve it please

Answers

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

3x + 2 = 4x + 5

3x + 2 - 2 = 4x + 5 - 2

Step 2.

Simplify. Subtract the numbers 3x =4x + 3

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

Combine like terms -x = 3

Divide both sides of the equation.

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

Divide the numbers

And that's how X = -3

In​ 2012, the population of a city was 5.82 million. The exponential growth rate was 2.95% per year.
​a) Find the exponential growth function.
​b) Estimate the population of the city in 2018.
​c) When will the population of the city be ​million?
​d) Find the doubling time.

Answers

Answer:

a) P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

b) P(6) = 7,805\ millionP(6)=7,805 million

c) t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) t = 24.15\ yearst=24.15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The function of exponential growth for a population has the following formula:

P(t) = p_0e ^{rt}P(t)=p

0

e

rt

In this equation:

p_0p

0

is the initial population

r is the growth rate

t is the time in years

In this problem we know that

r = 2.87\% = 0.0287r=2.87%=0.0287

p_0= 6.57p

0

=6.57 million in the year 2012.

So the equation is:

P(t) = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=6.57e

0.0287t

Where t = 0t=0 represents the year 2012

b) If t = 0t=0 in 2012, then in 2018 t = 6t=6

The population in 2018 is:

\begin{gathered}P(t = 6) = 6.57e ^{0.0287(6)}\\\\P(6) = 7,805\ million\end{gathered}

P(t=6)=6.57e

0.0287(6)

P(6)=7,805 million

c) To know when the population is equal to 10 million we must equal P(t) to 10 and solve for t.

\begin{gathered}P(t) = 10 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}\\\\\frac{10}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{10}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = \frac{ln(\frac{10}{6.57})}{0.0287}\end{gathered}

P(t)=10=6.57e

0.0287t

6.57

10

=e

0.0287t

ln(

)=0.0287t

t=

0.0287

ln(

6.57

10

)

t = 14.64\ yearst=14.64 years

d) The function is doubled when P(t) = 2p_0P(t)=2p

0

P(t) = 2(6.57) = 13.14 = 6.57e ^{0.0287t}P(t)=2(6.57)=13.14=6.57e

0.0287t

We solve for t.

\begin{gathered}\frac{13.14}{6.57} = e ^{0.0287t}\\\\ln(\frac{13.14}{6.57}) = 0.0287t\\\\t = ln{13.14}{6.57})}{0.0287})\

end

{gathered}

IX+XC= WHAT IS THE ANSWER

Answers

Answer: X googled it

Answer:  XCIX

This converts to the number 99

=========================================================

Explanation:

The upper case letter i means the number 1 in roman numerals. The X represents 10. The C represents 100.

I = 1

X = 10

C = 100

When we form something like IX, we have the smaller digit first and then a larger digit next. Whenever this happens, we subtract

IX = 10-1 = 9

Similarly

XC = 100-10 = 90

So we can see that

IX + XC = 9 + 90 = 99

---------------------------

Since XC is larger than IX, we list XC first when it comes to adding

In other words, we need to write IX+XC as XC+IX which collapses to XCIX

Placing XC next to IX without a plus sign implies the plus sign is there. This is effectively how roman numerals work (they are additive)

So,

XCIX = XC+IX = 90+9 = 99

Note how the XC takes care of the tens digit while IX takes care of the units digit.
