Using an exponential function, it is found that:

  • For Country A, the doubling time is of 43 years.
  • For Country B, the growth rate is of 1.9% per year.

<h3>What is the exponential function for population growth?</h3>

The exponential function for population growth is given as follows:

P(t) = P(0)e^{kt}

In which:

  • P(t) is the population after t years.
  • P(0) is the initial population.
  • k is the exponential growth rate, as a decimal.
  • t is the time in years.

For Country A, we have that k = 0.016. The doubling time is t for which P(t) = 2P(0), hence:

P(t) = P(0)e^{kt}

2P(0) = P(0)e^{0.016t}

e^{0.016t} = 2

\ln{e^{0.016t}} = \ln{2}

0.016t = \ln{2}

t = \frac{\ln{2}}{0.016}

t = 43 years.

For Country B, P(36) = 2P(0), hence we have to solve for k to find the growth rate.

P(t) = P(0)e^{kt}

2P(0) = P(0)e^{36k}

e^{36k} = 2

\ln{e^{36k}} = \ln{2}

36k = \ln{2}

k = \frac{\ln{2}}{36}

k = 0.019.

For Country B, the growth rate is of 1.9% per year.

Wht is 84 is 74% of what number
Elina [12.6K]
'is' in mathematics means equal
'of' in mathematics means multiplication

percent means over 100

84 = 74% * x

84 = 74/100 * x

84 = 37/50 * x

Multiply 50/37 on both sides, so we can isolate 'x'

85 * 50/37 = x

x = 4250/37

x ≈ 114.864865

84 is 74 percent of <span>114.86</span>.

10.<br> JKLM is a rhombus KLN is a triangle. Find MKN.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

JM = JK (all sides of a rhombus are equal)

Angle JKM = 25° (isosceles triangle)

Angle JKL = 50° (consecutive angles of rhombus)

Angle MKL = 25° (angle subtraction)

Angle MLK = 130° (opposite angles of a rhombus)

Angle KLN = 50° (angles on a straight line)

Angle LKN = 40° (angle sum of triangle)

Angle MKN = 65° (angle addition)

two brothers marco and fernando are training for a marathon marco runs at a rate of 6miles per hor. Fernando funs at at a rate o
satela [25.4K]
We know that
speed=distance/time
solve for time
time=distance/speed

in this problem
<span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour. 
</span><span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
Difference=7.2-6=1.2 miles/hour
so
speed=1.2 miles/hour
distance=0.3 miles
time=?
</span>time=distance/speed-----> 0.3/1.2-----> 0.25 hour-----> 0.25*60=15 minutes
<span>
the answer is
0.25 hour (15 minutes)

Alternative Method
Let 
x---------> Fernando's distance when Marco is 0.3 miles apart

</span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
<span>for distance =x
time=x/7.2------> equation 1

</span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour. 
for distance=x-0.30
time=(x-0.30)/6------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2
 7.2*(x-0.3)=6x-----> 7.2x-2.16=6x
7.2x-6x=2.16------> x=2.16/1.2-------> x=1.8 miles

time=x/7.2-----1.8/7.2=0.25 hour
