The land area of Statesville, NC, is 20.6 square miles. If the entire US population (currently about 320.7 million) were put inside the city limits of Statesville, determine the number of square feet that each person would have. Round your answer to two decimal places. [Hint: Remember that a mile is 5,280 feet, so a square mile is (5,280 x 5,280) square feet.]

2500

step-by-step explanation:

d. corresponding side lengths in similar triangles are proportional in length.

step-by-step explanation:

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.

i believe it is 2
