Suppose the population of a town is 127,000 in 2014. The population increases at a rate of 5.2 percent every year. What will the population of the town be in 2020? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

172,146

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use the exponential growth formula and get y=127000(1.052)^6. after that, you can just solve (make sure you use PEMDAS) and get 172,146.

Answer 2

The population in 2020 will be 177800.

What is population growth rate definition?

The annual average rate of change of population size, for a given country, territory, or geographic area, during a specified period.

Population growth rate formula

[tex]P = P^{'} (1+i)^{n}[/tex]

where,

P is the future population size

[tex]P^{'}[/tex] is the initial population size

[tex]i[/tex] is the growth rate

n is number of periods, such as years

According to the given question

we have

Initial population = 127000

[tex]i[/tex] = 5.2% = [tex]\frac{5.2}{100} = 0.052[/tex]

n = 6 years   (2020-2014 = 6years)

therefore,

population of the town in 2020 = 127000[tex](1+0.052)^{6}[/tex]

Population of town in 2020 =  127000×[tex](1.052)^{6}[/tex]

Population of town in 2020 =  127000 ×1.4

Population of town in 2020 = 177,800

Hence, the population of town in 2020 will be 177800.

What is the slope and y-intercept form for : y=-2/4x+5 PLEASE HELP IT WOULD ME SO MUCH THANK YOU!!!!

Answers

Answer:

  y = -1/2x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is ...

  y = mx + b

Matching this to the equation you have, you see that ...

  m = -2/4 = -1/2

  b = 5

The equation is already in slope-intercept form. The fraction that is the slope can be reduced, but that is not essential to the form.

D. 90,000(1+0.072)^6+708.61[1-(1+0.072)^6/0.072]

Answers

Answer:

  none of the expressions shown is correct

  The appropriate expression is ...

     90,000(1+0.006)^72+708.61[(1-(1+0.006)^72)/0.006] . . . best matches C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate the remaining balance is ...

  A = P(1 +r)^n +p((1 -(1 +r)^n)/r) . . . . . note the parentheses on the fraction numerator

In this formula, r is the monthly interest rate: 7.2%/12 = 0.006, and n is the number of monthly payments: 6×12 = 72. Putting these values into the formula along with the loan amount (P=90,000) and the payment amount (p=708.61) gives ...

  A = 90,000(1.006)^72 +708.61((1 -(1.006)^72)/0.006)

  A = 74,871.52

Answers

Answer:

(1, -5); (4, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We generally orient maps with north at the top. This problem presumes that orientation along with a grid having units of 1 mile. "Town Center" is taken to be the origin of the grid. As is usually the case, left/right coordinates are indicated first in an ordered pair, with up/down coordinates being indicated second.

Then the warehouse location 8 miles south and 3 miles west of Town Center is considered to have coordinates of (-3, -8). Movement 3 miles north and 4 miles east is considered to be translation by (4, 3). This translation vector is the answer to the second part of the problem.

The answer to the first part of the problem is the sum of the starting position and the translation:

(-3, -8) +(4, 3) = (1, -5)

The truck's final position is (1, -5). The translation vector to get it there is (4, 3).

Which absolute value function, when graphed, will be narrower than the graph of the parent function, f(x) = |x|? f(x) = |x| – 3 f(x) = |x + 2| f(x) = 0.5|x| f(x) = 4|x|

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = 4|x|

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph of f(x) = |x|, looks like a "V"

if we want to make the graph "narrower", what we are doing is really trying to make the slope steeper (i.e more vertical) so that the opening of graph at the top of the "V" becomes smaller.

in order the make the slope steeper, we have to multiply the x-term of the function (in this case |x|) by any factor that is greater than 1. (multiplying by factors smaller than 1 will make the slope more gentle and hence making the "V" wider).

The only choice that shows the original function multiplied by a number that is greater than 1 is f(x) = 4|x|

In 1950, scientists estimated a certain animal population in a particular geographical area to be 6,400. In 2000, the population had risen to 7,200. If the animal population experiences the same percent increase over the next 50 years, what will the approximate population be?

A) 8,000
B) 8,100
C) 8.400
D) 8.600

Answers

B) The estimated animal population in 2050, given the same percent increase from 1950 to 2000, will be approximately 8,100.

The percent increase from 1950 to 2000 =  (New Population - Original Population) / Original Population x 100%

In this case, it is:

(7200 - 6400) / 6400 x 100%

= 12.5%

The population in 2050 under the same percent increase, we apply this percentage to the population in 2000:

7200 x (1 + 12.5/100) = 7200 x 1.125 = 8100

The expected population in 2050 is 8,100.

Thus, the correct answer is B) 8,100.

To calculate the percent increase over 50 years, we first find the absolute increase from 1950 to 2000, and then determine the percent increase relative to the initial value in 1950.

Next, we apply that percent increase to the population in 2000 to predict the population in 2050.

Calculate the Absolute Increase

The increase in the animal population from 1950 to 2000 is:

[tex]\[7200 - 6400 = 800.\][/tex]

Calculate the Percent Increase

To find the percent increase over the period from 1950 to 2000, use the following formula:

[tex]\[ \frac{{\text{increase}}}{{\text{initial value}}} \times 100 = \frac{{800}}{{6400}} \times 100 = 12.5\%. \][/tex]

Thus, the population increased by 12.5% over 50 years.

Apply the Percent Increase to Predict the 2050 Population

Given the 12.5% increase, the expected increase in population from 2000 to 2050 would be 12.5% of 7200:

[tex]\[ 0.125 \times 7200 = 900. \][/tex]

Thus, the predicted population in 2050 is:

7200 + 900 = 8100.

The zeros are the x-values where the graph crosses the x-axis (y=0; That's why it is called a "zero.") The graph crosses y=0 at x=1 and x=3.

A factor of the polynomial is zero at each zero. Hence the factorization is ...

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of h(x) = (2x + 6)/5, we need to solve for 'x':

y = (2x + 6)/5 ⇒ 5y = 2x + 6 ⇒ 5y - 6 = 2x ⇒ x = (5y - 6)/2

Therefore, h^-1(x) = (5x - 6)/2

Answer:

(5x-6)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = (2x + 6)/5

y =  (2x + 6)/5

To find the inverse, exchange x and y

x = (2y+6) /5

Then solve for y

Multiply each side by 5

5x = (2y+6)/5*5

5x = 2y+6

Subtract 6 from each side

5x-6 = 2y+6-6

5x-6 = 2y
