Answer:

about 340,000

Step-by-step explanation:

In 10 years, the population dropped to 0.88 of what it was in 2010. At the same rate, in 20 more years, it will drop to 0.88² of what it was in 2020:

2040 population = 440,000·0.88² ≈ 340,000

The x- coordinate of the vertex is determined by x = - b/(2a).

  • x = - 15/(-0.5*2) = 15

The maximum height is the corresponding y- coordinate

  • y = - 0.5(15²) + 15(15) = 112.5 ft

​Which values are solutions to the inequality? ​ ​5r≤6r−8​ ​ Select each correct answer. r = 7 r = 8 r = 9 r = 10
Ratling [72]

Answer:

r = 8,9,10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is :

​5r≤6r−8​  ...(1)

We need to find the value of r.

Subtracting 5r to both sides of the inequality .

​5r-5r≤6r-5r−8

0≤r−8

r ≥ 8

Hence, the values of r are 8,9,10.
