The growth factor that could be used to model the population will be 1.04. Then the correct option is D.

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

Consider the function:

y = a (1 ± r) ˣ

Where x is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.

If there is a plus sign, then there is exponential growth happening by r fraction or 100r %.

If there is a minus sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %.

The population is increasing by 4% per year.

Then the growth factor that could be used to model the population will be

Growth factor = (1 + 4%)

Growth factor = (1 + 0.04)

Growth factor = 1.04

The growth factor that could be used to model the population will be 1.04.

Then the correct option is D.

Oliga [24]

Solution :

It is given that P(x) is said to be complete or proper probability distribution if it satisfies the following two ways :

1. $P(x) \geq 0$

2. $\sum_z P(x) = 1$

Now consider,

$\sum_z P(x) = 1$

⇒ $P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)+P(x=4)+P(x=5)=1$

⇒ $0.61+T+0.14+0.01+0.01+0.03=1$

⇒ $0.8+T=1$

⇒ $T=1-0.8$

       = 0.2

Therefore, the value of T is 0.2

Thus, option (c) is correct.

Answer:  

2x + (-2x + 3) = 3

2x - 2x +3

0 + 3

3

2x-7 + (-2x) = -7

2x -2x - 7

0 -7

-7

-(5x -1) + 5x = 1

-5x +1 + 5x

-5x + 5x + 1

0 + 1

1

Step-by-step explanation: In addition, the parentheses help identify the individual addends. If adding a negative number, it is the same as subtracting. If there is a negative sign outside the parentheses, as in example c, you must distribute it: the signs of the numbers within the parentheses must be reversed when the parentheses are removed.

An Ontario lottery has the following structure, the first person drawn from the names wins $15 000. Each subsequent person drawn
elixir [45]
  • The first four terms are : 15000, 14850, 14700, 14550
  • a = 15000 ; d = -150
  • The explicit formula is : a_{n} =  - 150n \:  + 15150

The first term of the sequence, a = 15,000

Each subsequent winner gets $150 less

Hence, the common difference, d = - $150

The first four terms :

First term, a1 = $15000

Second term, a2 = a - d = $15000 - $150 = $14850

Third term, a3 = a2 - d = $14850 - $150 = $14700

Fourth term, a4 = a3 - d = $14700 - $150 = $14550

a, for the sequence is the first term = $15000

d, for the sequence is the common $150 (difference between successive wins).

Explicit formula for the general term :

a_{n} \:  = nd \: + c

For n = 1

15000 = 1( - 150)  + c

15000 =  - 150 + c

c = 15150

Hence, the explicit formula for the nth term is :

a_{n} \:  =  - 150n \:  + 15150
