D. 200%
In 1990 the value of population is 200% (100% + 100%), therefore the 50% increase is 100%, meaning the total is 200%

Answer:200 %

Step-by-step explanation:

From 1980 to 1990 population increased by 100%

Let us Say initial population be x

therefore 100 % increase means it increases to 2x

From 1990 to 2000 population increased by 50%

i.e.2x \times 1.5=3x

Total increase from 1980 to 2000

\frac{3x-x}{x}\times 100=200\%

If y = 3x and 2x – 4y = 3, then x=
lozanna [386]

Answer:

x = -0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute y in 2x – 4y = 3, to solve for x.

How to solve for x:

2x - 4(3x) = 3 (Simplify)

2x - 12x = 3 (Simplify)

-10x = 3 (Divide by -10)

x = -0.3

Frank left his house at 7 a.m. and drove to the airport at a speed of 50 mph. Lance left his house at 6 a.m. and drove to the sa
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Lance will arrive at the airport at 10:00 AM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance left his house at 6:00 AM, and drove to the airport, which is 220 miles away, at 55mph; therefore, the time t it takes Lance to cover the distance of 220 miles is

t = \dfrac{220m}{55mph}

t= 4 \: hours.

Thus, it takes Lance 4 hours to reach the airport, and since he departed at 6:00 AM, he will arrive at the airport at (6+4):00 AM + 10:00 AM.

The degree measure of angle a is 135°. which expression below is equivalent to the radian measure of angle a?
Kazeer [188]

It is given that \angle a=135^{\circ}.

Now, know that in 180 degrees there are \pi radians. This can be written as:

180^{\circ}=\pi radians

\therefore 1^{\circ}=\frac{\pi}{180} radians (dividing both sides by 180)

Thus, to find the measure of the given angle of 135^{\circ} in radians, we will have to multiply the above equation by 135. Thus, we get:

135^{\circ}=\frac{\pi}{180}\times 135 radians

135^{\circ}\approx2.356 radians

Thus, equivalent to the radian measure of angle a is 2.356

Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-
Rufina [12.5K]
To make a positive profit p(x)>0 we need to make:
-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \  0

Now we solve this for x:
-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0

We have:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will use formula for quadratic equation:
x_{1} =  \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}  \\  \\  x_{2} =  \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}  \\  \\  x_{1} =  \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\  x_{2} =  \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4}  = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3

We got two solutions. One is fraction other is whole number. We will not consider fraction because the amount of muffins sold must be whole number. So our solution is:
x>3
