The answer is 20 days.

After 60 people have joined there will be 460 people in the camp.

The number of days which the provisions will last will be proportional less after the 60 people have joined and will be:-

(400/460) * 23

= (20 / 23) * 23

=  20

A limited-edition poster increases in value each year with an initial value of $18. After 1 year and an increase of 15% per year
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The required equation is y = 18(1.15)^x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The Initial value of poster = $ 18

After 1 year amount of increase = $ 20.70

With the rate of 15% = 0.15

Let future value is y and the number of years be x.

y = 18(1.15)^x

Now verify this by substituting x=1 in above equation.

y = 18(1.15)^1=20.7

Which is true.

Hence, the required equation is y = 18(1.15)^x.

stira [4]

Answer:

(3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mila reads at a rate of 2 paragraphs per minute. After reading for 3 minutes, she had read a total of 6 paragraphs.

This situation can be represented with a linear equation written in slope-intercept form,  as

y=2x

where 'x' represents the number of minutes and,

y represents the number of paragraphs.  

Since y intercept is 0 i.e. 0 paras in 0 minutes we have the equation as

y=2x

Since no of minutes or paragraphs cannot take negative values this line is defined only in the I quadrant where both x and y are positive

Out of the points given as follows:

(3,6) (2,3) (-3,6) or (-2,6) ,

we can remove last two since they have negative x which is impossible.

Consider  (3,6) (2,3)

Out of these only I point  (3,6) satisfies  y=2x and second point   (2,3) does not satisfy

y=2x

Hence answer is (3,6)
