A small country emits 130,000 kilotons of carbon dioxide per year. In
a recent global agreement, the country agreed to cut its carbon
emissions by 3.1% per year for the next 10 years. In the first year of the
agreement, the country will keep its emissions at 130,000 kilotons and
the emissions will decrease 3.1% in each successive year. How many
total kilotons of carbon dioxide would the country emit over the course
of the 10 year period, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:1132858

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The total carbon dioxide the country emit over the course of the 10 year period would be 1,132,858 kilotons.

What is rate of decrease?

The rate of decrease is a constant amount of deduction from a fixed or primary amount.

Here, the carbon dioxide emits by the country per year is 130,000 kilotons.

The rate of decrease of the carbon dioxide emission per year would be 3.1%.

In the 1st year, the carbon dioxide emission = 130,000 kilotons.

In the 2nd year, the carbon dioxide emission = 130,000 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 125,970 kilotons.

In the 3rd year, the carbon dioxide emission = 125,970 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 122,064.93 kilotons.

In the 4th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 122,064.93 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 118,280.92 kilotons.

In the 5th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 118,280.92 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 114,614.21 kilotons.

In the 6th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 114,614.21 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 111,061.17 kilotons.

In the 7th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 111,061.17 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 107,618.27 kilotons.

In the 8th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 107,618.27 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 104,282.1 kilotons.

In the 9th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 104,282.1 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 101,049.35 kilotons.

In the 10th year, the carbon dioxide emission = 101,049.35 × (100-3.1)/ 100 kilotons = 97,916.82 kilotons.

Hence, total carbon dioxide emission by that country over 10 years = (130,000 + 125,970 + 122,064.93 + 118,280.92 + 114,614.21 + 111,061.17 + 107,618.27 + 104,282.1 + 101,049.35 + 97,916.82) kilotons = 1,132,857.77 kilotons ≈ 1,132,858 kilotons.

Erica saw a skateboard on sale for $45.56. The original price of the skateboard was $75.99. What is the approximate percent discount on the skateboard? Round to the nearest whole percent.

Answers

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

45.56/75.99 x 100 = 59.9

Rounded = 60%

Hello!

Discounts! I struggle myself with these, but a common method can help you find the price.

First, we'll subtract 45.56 from 75.99, to get our discount factor.

75.99 - 45.56 = 30.43

Now, we have to figure out the percentage of said factor. How much of 75.99 is 30.43. We must divide discount factor by original number.

30.43 ÷ 75.99 = 0.40044742729306 which would be equal to 40.044742729306%

Lastly we round 40.044742729306% to the nearest whole percent.

Our final answer is: 40%

Please help i need to turn it in soon!!

Answers

Answer:

The computation is shown below;

As we know that

The simple interest is

Simple interest = Principal × rate × time

For Account A, the principal would be

2 = Principal × 3.2% × 3

So, the principal is $20.83

For account B, the principal would be

38.50 = Principal × 2.2% × 30

So, the principal is $58.33

Now the interest for both the accounts are as follows

For account 1

= $20.83 × 3.2%

= $0.67

And, for the account 2

= $58.33 × 2.2%

= $1.28

As it can be seen that the account 2 has the highest interest

Determine the probability of drawing either a jack or a spade?
Write ydur answer as a reduced fraction.
Answer =

Answers

Answer:

First Answer = 2/13

Second Answer = 4/13

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are 52 cards in a standard deck. There is also a total of 4 jacks and 4 queens of these 52 cards. So, the probability of drawing either a jack or a queen after one pick would be 8/52 = 2/13.

2. There are 4 jacks, and 13 spades. However, one of those jacks is a jack of spades. So, instead of 17 possible picks, one overlaps, resulting in 16 possible picks. This is represented by 16/52 = 4/13.

The probability of drawing either a jack or a queen is 2/13 or 15.38%. In turn, the probability of drawing either a jack or a spade is 15/52 or 28.84%

Since Jenelle draws one card from a standard deck of 52 cards, to determine the probability of drawing either a jack or a queen, and to determine the probability of drawing either a jack or a spade, the following calculations must be performed:

Jack + Queen = 4 + 48/52 = X2/13 = X0.1538 = X

Jack + Spade = 4 + 1115/52 = X0.2884 = X

Two planes just took off from Boston, MA. The first plane is traveling 2.5 times as fast as the second plane. After traveling in the same direction for 5 hours, they are 735 miles apart. What is the average speed of each plane? (Hint: Since they are traveling in the same direction, the distance between them will be the difference of their distances.)

Answers

Answer:

Plane 1:  rate = 245 mph

Plane 2:  rate = 98 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane 2:  Let r = rate

                    d = 5r

Plane 1:    2.5r = rate

                    d = 5(2.5r)

5(2.5r) - 5r = 735

12.5r - 5r = 735

7.5r = 735

r = 98

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here (h, k ) = (2, 8 ) and r = 3 , then

(x - 2)² + (y - 8)² = 3² , that is
