Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Scale

2 inches : 5 feet

Actual dimensions

Let x be the dimension of the scale drawing (in inches) and y, the corresponding dimension of the actual field (in feet).

Scaled dimension = scale × actual dimension

Actual dimension, x = y × 5 ft/2 in

2 × x = 5 × y

Equation:

2x = 5y

A textbook store sold a combined total 402 of psychology and math textbooks in a week. The number of psychology textbooks sold w
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The number of textbooks of each type were sold is <u>134 math </u>and <u>268 psychology </u>books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of math and psychology textbooks sold in a week is 402.

Now, let the number of math textbooks sold be x.

And, the number of psychology textbooks be 2x.

According to question:

x+2x=402

3x=402

Dividing both sides by 3 we get:

x=134

So, total number of math textbooks were 134 .

And, total number of psychology textbooks were 2x=2\times 134

                                                                                 =268.

Therefore, the number of textbooks of each type were sold is 134 math and 268 psychology books.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer: E. The population decreased by 11% each year.

Step-by-step explanation: In A, the pollution increases at a constant rate, but in a linear way, in other words in each day, the pollution increases 10 grams; The same goes for C: ice "grows" a few milimeters each day; In D, as volume is calculated by the multiplication of π and its radius, the increase in the volume is still linear. In B, the proportionality is related to the power of the turbine not the growth or decay of it. In E, a population grows or decreases in a form of A=A₀(1±r)^t. In this case: A = A₀ (1-0.11)^t.

In conclusion, the function that better describes an exponential growth or decay is the decrease of a population.
