for the formula is

 Y = starting population x (1-rate of change)^number of years

2010-2001 = 9

Y= 567 x (1-0.015)^9 = 494.89, round up to 495 people

Answer:

The answer is 495 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2001, the population of the town is = 567

The population decreases at a rate of 1.5% every year.

This is an exponential decrease, so we can write the expression as :

((1-.015)^9)(567)

= ((0.985)^9)(567)

0.87282\times567 = 494.888 ≈ 495

Therefore, the answer is 495 people.

Vlad spent 20 minutes on his history homework and then completely solved x math problems that each took 2 minutes to complete. W
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: b. y=2x+20; x is any real number greater than or equal to 0, and y is any real number greater than or equal to 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

time spent on  history homework: 20 minutes

time spent on each math problem: 2 minutes

math problem : x

total time spent  :y

So, we have to multiply each math problem (x) by the time spent on each math problem and add the 20 minutes spent on history homework.

The expression obtained is equal to the total time spent

Mathematically speaking:

y=2x+20

x can be any real number greater than or equal to 0, ( it would be 0 if there aren't any math problems)

and y is any real number greater than or equal to 20. ( 20 minutes is the minimum time spent if there aren't any math problems)

(a) Rearrange the equation<br> x<br> + 2y = 6 to make y the subject.
satela [25.4K]

To make y the subject, we must move everything to one side and y on the other.

  x + 2y = 6\\2y = 6 -x\\2y = -x + 6\\y =-\frac{1}{2} x + 3

Good day and I hoped that helped!

Lisa bought stock three years ago and sold it today for a profit of $1,200. this is a _____.
goldenfox [79]
Well if you are looking for the profit margin we need how much is was when she bought it, because it doesn't say, you can't say It's a increase or a decrease, so you could say this is a investment.
But considering you put this under mathematics I assume there is more to this question you forgot to post.

5(3a-1)-2(3a-2)=3(a+2)+v
STatiana [176]

Answer:

<u>The answer is option C. 6a-7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

5(3a-1)-2(3a-2)=3(a+2)+v

Solve for v

∴ v = 5(3a-1)-2(3a-2) - 3(a+2)

∴ v = 15a - 5 - 6a + 4 - 3a - 6

∴ v = 15a - 6a - 3a - 5 + 4 - 6

∴ v = 6a - 7

<u>So the answer is option C. 6a-7</u>
