The exponential function is P = 5.63(1.0145)ⁿ. And the population of the city in 2018 is 6.1379 million, the number of the years when the population of the city is 10 million is 40 years, and the doubling time will be 49 years.

<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>

The exponent denotes that the base will rise to a specific level of strength. The base is X, and the power is n.

In 2012, the population of a city was 5.63 million. The exponential growth rate was 1.45% per year.

Then the exponential function will be given as

P = 5.63 (1.0145)ⁿ

Where P is the population (in million) and n is the number of years.

Then the population of the city in 2018 will be

n = 2018 - 2012 = 6

Then we have

P = 5.63 (1.0145)⁶

P = 5.63 x 1.0902

P = 6.1379 million

The number of the years when the population of the city is 10 million.

10 = 5.63 x (1.0145)ⁿ

1.776 = (1.0145)ⁿ

Taking log both sides, then we have

log 1.776 = n x log 1.0145

n = 39.90

n ≅ 40 years

Then the doubling time will be

2 = (1.0145)ⁿ

Taking log on both sides, then we have

log 2 = n x log1.0145

n = 48.1489

n ≅ 49 years

The sum of Pete's and Sam's ages is 30. Five years ago, Pete was 3 times as old as Sam. How old is Sam?

RUDIKE [14]

P-5=3s-15 because Pete is 20 and Sam is 10. 20-5= 15 and 3(10)-15 also equals 15. The answer is C.

At Denver International Airport, 83% of recent flights have arrived on time. A sample of 12 flights is studied. (a) Calculate th

Aleks [24]

Answer:

10.69% probability that all 12 flights were on time

Step-by-step explanation:

For each flight, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it was on time, or it was not. The probability of a flight being on time is independent of any other flight. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

83% of recent flights have arrived on time.

This means that $p = 0.83$

A sample of 12 flights is studied.

This means that $n = 12$

Calculate the probability that all 12 flights were on time

This is P(X = 12).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.83)^{12}.(0.17)^{0} = 0.1069$

10.69% probability that all 12 flights were on time

Which inequality is represented by the graph

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

y ≥ -2x + 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It's kind of hard to tell because no points are given on the graph, but we can first find the b value of 2.5 in the equation y = mx +b as it is the y-intercept.

Using that value, we can also recognize that at one, it looks like the y-value is .5. using our slope formula (change in y / change in x), we can plug in the two points of (0, 2.5) and (1, 0.5) to get a slope of -2.

Now that we have our equation, we can make it an inequality!

Since the graph is shaded upwards, we know it is going to be a greater than symbol, and since the line itself solid and not dotted, we know that the points on the line are also solutions, meaning that it is also equal to the line

Hence, we get the ≥ sign.

Putting it all together, we get our final equation of y ≥ -2x + 2.5 ! :))

Which one of the following is an example of a proper fraction a7/6 b4/4 c3/4 d 4/3

Sergio039 [100]

A proper fraction is when the numerator is smaller then the denominator .
so ur answer is 3/4

** fractions are improper if the numerator is bigger then the denominator.
