Let's say that B makes $100.
Then A makes $75.
So, your question then becomes 100 is what percent of 75?
This can be solved by setting up the proportion 100 / 75 = x / 100
75x = 10000
x = 133.3
So, B's income is 33.3% more than A's income.
The correct format of the question is
At the end of 2006, the population of Riverside was 400 people. The population for this small town can be modeled by the equation below, where t represents the number of years since the end of 2006 and P represents the number of people. Based on this model, approximately what was the increase in the population of Riverside at the end of 2009 compared to the end of 2006?
(A) 291
(B) 691
(C) 1040
(D) 1440
Answer:
The increase in the population at the end of 2009 is 291 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation as
where
P = No of People
t= No of Years
it is given that in the year 2006 the population is 400
this will only happen when we take t= 0
so for
Year value of t
2006- t = 0
2007- t = 1
2008- t = 2
2009 t = 3
No of people in 2009 will be
= 400*1.728
P = 691.2
Since the equation represents no of people so it can't be in decimals, Therefore the population will be 691
Increase = P(2009) - P(2006)
= 691 - 400
= 291
The increase in the population at the end of 2009 is 291 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
Im not sure if its supposed y = -2x + 1 or y = 2x + 1 but I'll solve the problem for both.
First for y = -2x + 1
Since the line has to be parallel to y = -2x + 1
the slopes would be the same.
so, so far the equation would be
y = -2x + b
now we substitute (5,2) into the equation
2 = -2(5) + b
2 = -10 + b (Add 10 to both sides of the equation)
+10 +10
12 = b
Now that we solved for b
The equation would be
y = -2x + 12
^^ This equation is parallel to y = -2x + 1
Now to solve for an equation parallel to y = 2x + 1
Both equations would have the same slope
So far we would have
y = 2x + b
Now we solve for be by substituting the point (5,2)
2 = 2(5) + b
2 = 10 + b (subtract 10 from both sides)
-10 -10
-8 = b
After solving for b
The equation is
y = 2x - 8
This equation is parallel to y = 2x + 1
Answer:
40 2/5Ibs or lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let weight of object on the moon be represented = Wm
weight of object on the Earth = We
In the above question, we are told:
The weight of an object on the moon is
5 of its weight on Earth.
Hence, mathematically, this is represented as:
5Wm = We
If a moon rock weighs 202 lbs on Earth
5Wm = 202lbs
Wm = 202lbs/5
Wm = Ibs
Therefore, the moon rock weighs Ibs on the moon.
Answer:
The possible combinations of two letters is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to count the possible combinations of two letters
Now, for the first letter any point in time, we have 4 letters to pick from,
For the second letter we have 3 letters to pick from
So therefore, we have the possible combinations as;
4 * 3 = 12
