I NEED THE ANSWER ASAP

The number of students who smoke cigarettes at Broxton College is decreasing at a rate of one smoker every 6.31 days. At what rate in smokers per year is the number of smokers declining? Assume 365 days in a year and round to the nearest tenth of a smoker per year

Respuesta :

Answer:

57.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for this, assuming x is the smokers lost in 365 days.

[tex]\frac{1}{6.31} = \frac{x}{365}[/tex]

Using the cross products property, we know that x will be equal to:

[tex](365\cdot1) \div 6.31\\365\div6.31\\\\\approx 57.8[/tex]

Hope this helped!
