Scribe for Friday's class 03-07-08

Today in class we worked on a Warm-Up. It was a review from Thursday, just to see if we remembered what we had learned.

This was the warm-up

If last years population was 12,000 people and the previous year was 3% less than that. What was the population last year.

So the equation would be

12,000/x = 103/100

And you multiply 12,000 by 100 and x by 3 so you'd get

103/x = 1,200,000

You divide 103 by 103x and 1,200,000 by 103

x=11,650

We also did a classwork sheet.
