Answer:
Question #1 answer is 0.56
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is 2030.
Step-by-step explanation:
To start we must analyze the information we have.
We know that a city has 8000 inhabitants and that each year this number increases by 0.5%. That means that <u>each year it has 40 more inhabitants</u>:
(8000 . 0,5) : 100 = 40
Having this information we could do a cross multiplication:
1 year ------- 40 inhabitants
x years ------- 81200
81200 = 40.x
x = 81200 : 40
x = 2030
In this way we can verify that the correct answer is 2030.
Answer:
11.327
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth equation is expressed as;
S(t) = S0e^kt
S(t) is the number of stores after t years
S0 is the initial number of stores
If a chain of retail computer stores opened 2 stores in its first year of operation then at t = 1, S(t) = 2. Substitute into the equation;
2 = S0e^k(1)
2 = S0e^k .... 1
Also if after 8 years of operation, the chain consisted of 206 stores, this means at t = 8, S(t) = 206. Substitute into the equation;
206 = S0e^k(1)
206 = S0e^8k .... 2
Next is to calculate the value of k
Divide equation 2 by 1;
Hence the value of k to the nearest hundredth is 0.66
