The population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured. If the current population is 27,900 .Previous population of city was 45000.

Solution:

Given that current population of city is 27900.  

Also, population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured.

Let assume that population of city when it was last measured = x

Decreased of 38% means x-38% of x . we can write this as,

=x-\frac{38}{100} \times x

=\frac{100 x-38 x}{100}

=\frac{62 x}{100}=\frac{31 x}{50}

So current population is \frac{31 x}{50}

Equating above expression to the given value of current population, we get

\frac{31 x}{50}=27900

x=\frac{27900 \times 50}{31}

x=45000

Hence previous population of city was 45000.

One might use elaboration to further explain a concept or a certain situation to another person or group of people. For example, I used elaboration or explained the contents of my bedroom in deeper detail. One item in particular is a Japanese Vase that is overall white, but has beautifully painted blue birds on it, clutching cherry blossoms in their feet with Japanese writing on the sides. In this way, I am elaborating or further explaining the content of the vase and not simply saying; "a white Japanese vase"

B. use a familiar concept to communicate an idea

Explanation:

Basically, Passage 2 states the hypothesis that spotted green pigeon is a descendant of an island hopping bird and throughot the article, it provides evidence for this statement.

The discovery is that, since the DNA found in a green pigeon's feather was fragmented and they had to analyze only parts of it, the bird had an unique sets of DNA which distinguish it from other members of the pigeon species.

These analyzed parts of DNA are refered to as "mini barcodes".

Since target audience for this article might not be fully familiar with the concept and functions od DNA, researchers used a more familiar concept of barcodes as an analogy to communicate their idea and explain their discovery.

True.

Explanation:

The uncertainty of inventiveness and futuristic ideas usually deal with science and technology.

Inventibility is something uncertain which promotes a risk in any system in which it is inserted. With that, we can naturally associate it with the maintenance of science and technology, because both are in need of inventing new creations, which may or may not be effective for the defeat of uncertainties and the creation of certainties.

This is usually linked to futuristic ideas, which may not fit in today's society, but which impose improvements, or not, for societies in the future. Leading to the creation of more technologies and more sciences.
