Answer:

2,600

Explanation:

Your first step is to find 7% of 4000 ( this is what it is decreasing by per year).
As a result you end up with 280.
Multiply 280 by 5.
1,400 should be your answer( amount of km decreasing after 5 years). This is a decreasing forest, so you subtract 4,000by 1,400.

In the morning, Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for $3. By the end of the day, he had earned $9. How many cups of lemonade did he
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Marco earned $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for 3$, we would divide 12 cups and how much he earned from the 12 cups (3$). 12/3 = 4

2. By the end of the day, Marco earned $9. So, 4 cups = 1$. To break it down, 1$ = 100 cents and 100 cents divided by 4 is 25 cents.  Cups to Cost. ( 4 : 1 ) and/or ( 1 : 0.25 )

3. 8 cups = 2$ plus 1 cup (0.25) = 2.25.

FromTheMoon [43]
For this case what we must do is find a quadratic function that is already factored.
 This is because in the factored quadratic equations, it is easier to observe the zeros of the function.
 In this case, the zeros of the function represent the time at which the company did not make any profit.
 We have the following equation:
 p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
 We observed that there was no gain in:
 t = 3
 t = 5
 The other roots are discarded because they are negative
 Answer:
 
a.p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
