The point is to find the growth rate. The compound formula is:

P=A(1+ growth rate)ⁿ, where A is the initial Value & P the new value after n years:
P₂₀₀₃ =P₂₀₀₂ (1+ growth rate)¹ (the period "n" from 2002 to 2003 being 1 year)

38400 = 32000(1+growth rate)¹
38400 / 32000 - 1= growth rate & growth rate = 1/5 = 0.2
You will balso find the same growth rate for:
P₂₀₀₄ = P₂₀₀₃(1+ growth rate)¹
P₂₀₀₅ = P₂₀₀₄((1+ growth rate)¹
between 2015 & 2002 THERE ARE 14 YEARS:

P₂₀₁₅ = P₂₀₀₂(1+0.2)¹⁴ & P₂₀₁₅ = 32000(1+02)¹⁴ = 410,854

Four square pieces of corkboard are lined up to make a rectangle. The area of the entire corkboard is
Pavel [41]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) attached

  b) 100 square inches, 1/4 of the total

  c) square root of area

  d) multiply by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A diagram is attached

__

b) If the total area consists of 4 squares of the same size, then the area of one square will be 1/4 of the total area. 1/4 of 400 square inches is 100 square inches, the area of one square.

__

c) The area of a square is the square of the side length. You find the side length by finding the square root of the area. √(100 in²) = 10 in, the side length of each square.

__

d) The rectangle is 4 squares laid side by side, so its length is 4 times the side length of one square: 4×10 in = 40 in.

Consider the equation. Which graph shows a line that is perpendicular to the line defined by the given equation? A. In a linear
Nikolay [14]

The graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option  (B) is correct.

<h3>What is the slope?</h3>

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The question is incomplete:

The complete question is:

Consider the equation y = 4x - 2 Which graph shows a line that is perpendicular to the line defined by the given equation?

Please refer to the attached picture.

The given line:

y = 4x - 2

The slope of the line m = 4

The slope of the line which is perpendicular to the above line:

M = -1/4 = -0.25

The graph second has a slope of -0.25

\rm y\ -2\ =\ \dfrac{\left(2-0.5\right)}{-4-2}\left(x+4\right)

y - 2 = -0.25x - 1

y = -0.25x + 1

Thus, the graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option  (B) is correct.

Canada has a population of 1/10 as large as the United States and Canada population is about 32 million about how many people li
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: If Canada(C) is 32,000,000 and America is A and C x 10 = A then 32,000,000 x 10 = A

And to multiply any whole number by 10 you just add a zero to the end so

320,000,000  is the answer which is pronounced "Three hundred twenty million" And there is 7 zeros in the answer

hope this helps mark me brainliest
