A small town currently has a population of 15,000. Each year the population decreases by 2.25%. What will the population be in 8 years

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12,503 people

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential decrease so to find the population in 8 years you have to use a future value formula:

= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years

= 15,000 ( 1 + (-2.25%)) ⁸

= 15,000 * (1 - 2.25%)⁸

= 12,503.32

= 12,503 people

Noelle and Micah went to the bank to open new checking accounts. The equation C=0.2n+1.20 represents the monthly cost, C, in dollars, where n is the number of checks written by Noelle. In Micah's account, the monthly cost is proportional to the number of checks written. The monthly cost for Micah's account is $1.20 for writing 3 checks. How many checks must Noelle and Micah write, if any, so that the cost of the accounts is the same for one month? What is the cost, if any?

Answers

Answer:

C = $2.40

n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For Noelle,

Equation that represents the monthly cost 'C',

C = 0.2n + 1.20

Here, n = number of checks written in a month

For Micah,

Monthly cost for writing checks 'C' = $1.20

Number of checks 'n' = 3

Since, Cost of writing checks ∝ Number of checks written

C' ∝ n

C' = kn

k = [tex]\frac{C'}{n}[/tex]

Here, k = proportionality constant

For C' = 1.2 and n = 3

k = [tex]\frac{1.2}{3}[/tex]

k = 0.4

Equation will be,

C' = 0.4n

For any month C = C'

Therefore, 0.2n + 1.20 = 0.4n

0.4n - 0.2n = 1.20

0.2n = 1.20

n = 6

Number of checks written by Noelle and Micah = 6

For n = 6,

C = 0.2(6) + 1.20

C = $2.40

Cost of writing checks = $2.40

Tyler invested $350 in an account paying an interest rate of 4.5% compounded
continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how long would it
take, to the nearest tenth of a year, for the value of the account to reach $700?

Answers

Answer:

15.4 I did this on delta math

It would take approximately 15.4 years, to the nearest tenth of a year, for the value of the account to reach $700 with continuous compounding.

How to calculate compounding time?

The formula for calculating the future value (FV) of an investment with continuous compounding is:

[tex]FV = Pe^{rt}[/tex]

Where P is the initial principal, r is the annual interest rate (expressed as a decimal), t is the time period (in years), and e is the mathematical constant e (approximately 2.71828).

In this case, we have P = $350, r = 4.5% = 0.045, and we want to find the time t when the FV is $700. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

[tex]700 = 350e^{0.045t}[/tex]

Dividing both sides by $350, we get:

[tex]2 = e^{0.045t}[/tex]

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:

[tex]ln(2) = ln\times e^{0.045t}[/tex]

Using the properties of logarithms, we can simplify this to:

ln(2) = 0.045t ln(e)

Since ln(e) = 1, we can simplify further to:

ln(2) = 0.045t

Finally, solving for t, we get:

t = ln(2) / 0.045 ≈ 15.4

Therefore, it would take approximately 15.4 years, to the nearest tenth of a year, for the value of the account to reach $700 with continuous compounding.

stretch
B.) A reflection over the x-axis and a vertical
compression
C.) A reflection over the y-axis and a vertical
compression
D.) A reflection over the y-axis and a vertical stretch

Answers

Answer:

A. A reflection over the x-axis and a vertical stretch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]h(x) = x^{2}[/tex], to obtain [tex]k(x) = -4\cdot x^{2}[/tex], we need to use the following two operations:

(i) Vertical stretch

[tex]g(x) = k\cdot f(x)[/tex], [tex]k\in \mathbb{R}^{+}[/tex]

(ii) Reflection over the x-axis

[tex]g(x) = -f(x)[/tex]

Let prove both transformations in [tex]h(x)[/tex]:

Step 1 - Vertical stretch ([tex]k = 4[/tex])

[tex]h'(x) = 4\cdot x^{2}[/tex]

Step 2 - Reflection over the x-axis

[tex]k(x) = -4\cdot x^{2}[/tex]

Hence, correct answer is A.

The Sanchez family had dinner at their favorite restaurant. A 9% sales tax was added to their bill. Amy paid the bill with a $10 gift certificate plus $30.60. How much did the family's dinner cost before tax? Round your answer to the nearest penny.

Answers

Answer:

The bill was $36.95 without tax.

The price before tax was the amount of $37.25 which is before a 9% sales tax was added to their bill.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions. The operator that performs the arithmetic operation is called the arithmetic operator.

Their bill was charged a 9% sales tax.

Amy paid the bill with a $10 gift certificate plus $30.60

Use the equation P + rP =T,

where P is the price before tax, r is the sales tax rate, and T is the total price, including tax.

The price before tax (P) is unknown.

The total price(T) = 30.60 + 10 = 40.60

The sales tax rate (r) = 9% = 9/100 = 0.09

⇒ P + rP = T

Substitute the values in the above equation, and we get

⇒ P + (0.09)P = 40.60

⇒ P(1 + 0.09) = 40.60

⇒ P(1.09) = 40.60

⇒ P = 30.60/(1.09)

Apply the Division operation, and we get

⇒ P = 37.247706

Rounded to the nearest hundredth

⇒ P = 37.25

Therefore, the price before tax was the amount of $37.25.

The advertisement claimed that some forms of bacteria triple in amount after each hour. Consider the situation where one bacterium is found on Mrs. Smith's countertop at home.

Answers

Question:

(a) How many bacteria would be found in 24 hours

(b) How many bacteria would be found in 2 days

(c) How long for 1000 bacteria to be found

Answer:

(a) 282429536481 bacteria

(b) [tex]7.97*10^{22[/tex] bacteria

(c) 6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The question illustrates an exponential function

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

Where

[tex]a = Initial\ Value = 1[/tex]

[tex]b=Rate = 3[/tex] --- i.e. triples

[tex]x = number\ of\ hours[/tex]

Solving (a): Bacteria in 24 hours

In this case:

[tex]x = 24[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = 24[/tex], [tex]b = 3[/tex] and [tex]a = 1[/tex]

So:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y = 1 * 3^{24[/tex]

[tex]y = 1 * 282429536481[/tex]

[tex]y = 282429536481[/tex] bacteria

Solving (b): Bacteria in 2 days

[tex]2\ days =48\ hours[/tex]

So:

[tex]x = 48[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = 48[/tex], [tex]b = 3[/tex] and [tex]a = 1[/tex]

So:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y = 1 * 3^{48[/tex]

[tex]y =7.97*10^{22[/tex] bacteria

Solving (c): How long for 1000 bacteria

In this case:

[tex]y = 1000[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y = 1000[/tex], [tex]b = 3[/tex] and [tex]a = 1[/tex]

So:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]1000 = 1 *3^x[/tex]

[tex]1000 = 3^x[/tex]

Take Log of both sides

[tex]Log1000 = Log3^x[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Log1000 = xLog3[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = \frac{Log1000}{Log3}[/tex]

[tex]x \approx 6[/tex]

Hence: It takes 6 days
