Suppose the population of a town is 17,400 and is growing 2% each year.
Predict the population after 9 years.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 20,532

Step-by-step explanation:

17,400(.02)=348

348(9)=3132

17,400+3132=20,532

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential growth function of the form:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex] where a is the initial population and b is the growth rate. This could also be written as

[tex]y=a(1+r)^x[/tex] which is a bit more accurate. We'll use that one. r is the percent growth: 2% for us.

Filling in the formula:

[tex]y=17400(1+.02)^x[/tex] and then simplifying:

[tex]y=17400(1.02)^x[/tex]

That's the model for this population. Filling in any number of years for x will give you the population y. Our time is 9 years:

[tex]y=17400(1.02)^9[/tex]

Take care of the exponents first, giving us:

[tex]y=17400(1.195092569)[/tex] and then multiply to get

y = 20,794.6 or 20,794 people (since you can't have 6/10 of a person)

Consider the following pair of equations.
Y = x + 4
Y = -2x - 2
Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution. Show all the steps and write down the solution in (x, y) corn.

Answers

Answer:

(- 2, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 4 → (1)

y = - 2x - 2 → (2)

Substitute y = x + 4 into (2)

x + 4 = - 2x - 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

3x + 4 = - 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into either of the 2 equations abd evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

y = - 2 + 4 = 2

solution is (- 2, 2 )

Q3: 23

Step-by-step explanation:

2, 4, 9, 11, 12, 16,   18, 20, 22, 24, 28, 32

Median is middle number/average of the 2 middle numbers. 16 + 18 = 34/2 = 17

First/lower quartile/Q1 = middle of lower half of ordered data set

= 9 + 11 = 20/2 = 10

A city has a population of 310,000 people.Suppose that each year the population grows by 6.5% . What will the population be after 9 years?

Answers

Answer:

546,397 people

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for the above question, using the formula for Exponential growth

The formula is given as

P(t) = Po (1 + r)^t

Po = Initial population = 310,000

r = Exponential growth rate = 6.5% = 0.065

t = Time in years = 9

P(t) = Population size after time t

Hence:

P(t) = 310,000 × (1 + 0.065)⁹

P(t) = 546,396.82088 people

Approximately =546,397 people

The population will be 546,397 people after 9 years.

Answer:

The first step would be canceling out the eight getting you 4x = 28 and the solution would be x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify you need to add the eight to itself to cancel it out but you have to do it to the 20 too making it 28. Then you have to divide 28 by 4 getting you 7.

If the diameter is 26 inches, what is the radius

Answers

Answer:

13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In any circle, the radius is always half of the diameter.

So, the diameter can be found by multiplying the radius by 2, and the radius can be found by dividing the diameter by 2.

Since the diameter is 26 inches, we can divide this by 2 to get the radius

26/2

= 13

The radius is 13 inches

Answer:

[tex] \bf \huge13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

the diameter is 26 inches.

to find :

what is radius .

formulas used :

radius = diameter / 2

explanation :

we know that,

finding the radius

diameter = 26 inches

⟼ radius = diameter / 2

⟼ radius = 26 / 2 inches

⟼ radius = 13 / 1 inches

⟼ radius = 13 inches.

radius is 13 inches .

A triangle has side lengths of
(x-8) (4x2 – 3) and (4x2 + 4).
If the perimeter is 650 units, what is the value of x?​

Answers

Given:

The three sides of a triangle are:

[tex](x-8),(4x^2-3),(4x^2+4)[/tex]

The perimeter of the triangle 650 units.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

Perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all three sides of the triangle. So,

[tex]Perimeter=(x-8)+(4x^2-3)+(4x^2+4)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter=8x^2+x-7[/tex]

The perimeter of the triangle 650 units.

[tex]8x^2+x-7=650[/tex]

[tex]8x^2+x-7-650=0[/tex]

[tex]8x^2+x-657=0[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]8x^2+73x-72x-657=0[/tex]

[tex]x(8x+73)-9(8x+73)=0[/tex]

[tex](x-9)(8x+73)=0[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex](x-9)=0\text{ and }(8x+73)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=9\text{ and }x=-\dfrac{73}{8}[/tex]

For negative value of x, the side [tex](x-8)[/tex] will be negative, which is not possible because the side of a triangle cannot be negative.

Therefore, the only value of x is 9.

The compound interest on a sum of money in 2 yes and 4 yrs are 5460 and 12060.6 then find principle​

Answers

Answer:

2471.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let I be the interest, r the annual rate and P the principal. Then:

I = P(r)^2 = 5460

I = P(r)^4 = 12060.6

so r^2 = P(r)^4 /  P(r)^2 = 12060.6/5460

r^2 = 2.2089

r = 1.486

So  P(r)^2 = P* 2.2089 = 5460

P = 5460 / 2.2089 = 2471.81.

The Ranallo family just bought a house. They qualified for an annual interest rate of 5.2% and their monthly payment

was $800 for a 30 year mortgage. Algebraically determine the amount of their loan to buy the house.

Answers

Answer:  your equation is poorly written/wrong hence I used the equation below

answer :  $289156.63

Step-by-step explanation:

applying the formula to calculate monthly repayment of Mortgage

M = P [ r(1+r)^n / ( ( 1+r )^n ) -1 ) ]  -----  ( 1 )

M = Total monthly payment = 800 * 12 * 30 = $ 288,000

P = ?

r = 5.2% / 12 = 0.4%

n = 30 * 12 = 360 months

Back to equation 1

P = M / [ r(1+r)^n / ( ( 1+r )^n ) -1 ) ]

   = 288000 / [ 0.004 ( 1.004)^360 / (( 1.004)^360 ) - 1 ) ]

   = 288,000 / -0.996  =  - $289156.63 ( It has a negative value because It is a loan borrowed )

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1.

The probability that Grant will select a blue sock and a green sock =

You then multiply 2, 2, and 5 together which will get you 20, and multiply 2, 2, and 6 together which will get you 24. You will then add both products which will get you 44. Since the measurement is in centimeters and it is a 3 dimensional shape it will then become 44 cm³.
