An exponential function is modeled using the equation:

P(t)=a(1+r)^{\frac{t}{n}}

where P(t) is the population after t years, a is the initial population, r is the growth rate in decimals, t is the number of years, and n is the number of periods in one cycle.

From the given information, we have the following parameters:

\begin{gathered} a=80000 \\ r=0.1 \\ t=8 \\ n=2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the population after 8 years can be calculated by substituting into the formula and solving for P(t) as follows:

\begin{gathered} P(t)=80000(1+0.1)^{\frac{8}{2}}=80000(1.1)^4 \\ P(t)=117128 \end{gathered}

The population is 117,128.

A=3B
4.35A+5.40B=780.95
Substitute 3B into A for the second equation:
4.35(3B)+5.40B=780.90
13.05B+5.40B=780.90
18.45B=780.90
B=42.33
Plug into equation 1:
A=3B
A=3(42.33)
A=126.98

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-5, -2) and is parallel to y = 2/3x+1
rewona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the slope has to be the same because it’s parallel.

y=2/3x+1

slope=2/3

y=-2

x=-5

y=2/3x+ what

-2=-3 1/3 + what

1 1/3

hence, y=2/3x+4/3
