An article reports sales have grown by 30% this year to $200 million, what were sales before the growth?

Price before growth = $ 153.85 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Percentage = 30%

Rate after Increase =new value= $200 million

To Find:

Sales before growth =old value= ?

Solution:

We Know the formula for Percentage growth which is given by the formula

Percentage growth%

Now let old value = x

So

Difference = New Value - x

                  = 2000 - x

We have formula

Percentage growth%

Putting in values

30 %%

30

Putting in values

30

multiplying both sides by x

it becomes

30 x = (200-x)*100

Multiplying inside

30 x = 20000 - 100 x

Adding 100 x on both sides

30 x + 100 x = 20000 - 100 x + 100 x

it becomes

130 x = 20000

Dividing both sides by 130

itgives us

x = $ 153.85 million

Price before growth = $ 153.85 million

the population of other specie of birds will decline or other specie of birds will find some alternate source of food to survive.

explanation:

according to the competitive exclusion principle, which is also known as gause's law, two specie living in the same niche and feeding on the same resource cannot co-exist stably.

as we have well studied the theory of natural selection which states that only those organisms survive which have better tendency to compete for food and adapt to the environmental conditions.

coming towards the question, what wi ll happen when one species outcompetes the other for the small fish , the other specie will not get enough food and will start to die or decline in population. eventually either other specie needs to find another alternative food source for itself or migrate at some other location where there is less competition otherwise it will just not exist anymore at that niche.

hope it !
