So, let's first focus on the first year:

the population then would be: 23000* (100+2)%

100% is the old population the 2% is the incease, so in total it's 102%, or 1.02 - the same number written differently.

So it will be 23000*1.02

After two years it will be 23000*1.02*1.02, and so on

so after x years it will be:

y=23000*1.02^{z}

A bag contains white matarles and red marables,126 in total.The number of whit marables is 6 more than 5 than 5 times the number
denis-greek [22]

Answer:106

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of white marbles be w

Let number of red marbles be r

w+r = 126---------1

w = 6 +5r-----------2

Put eqn 2 in eqn 1

6+ 5r + r = 126

6 + 6r = 126

6r = 120

r = 20

w = 6 +5r =6+100

= 106

Can some show the steps and the answer please I really need help tell me how you get it and the answer
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so this is about triangles..  sooo the following is a bit of helpful reminders that I keep on my computer to help me remember how to fit the trig functions to triangles..  I strongly suggest you copy it and keep it where you can look at it often.

Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle

SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp

CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp

TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj

I use this anytime I run into triangles or need some help with sin or cos

now the problem , 3 ladder  10, 12, & 15 feet.   Alex wants to get to 8 feet.

the problems is also telling you that   you can use   t.....   and then , the words are cut off.. but I know they were going to say   Tan ... next.. :P

b/c Tan is how you figure out problems with the adjacent side and the opposite side.  like this problem.    Look at  TOA  above.  use that to recall how the parts fit in the formula

Tan(∅) = Opp / Adj

they give us the Opp side of 8 feet in the problem

then they also tell us the Hyp of the triangle which is each of the ladders length.  Then they ask us what is the Adj sides length?

So we also need to solve the triangle with the know hyp  (ladder length).. uggg, this problem is long. Then we can solve the dist. from the wall or Adj side length.

it's two steps, if you want to think of it that way.   You're supposed to be pretty confident with trig functions.   I'm guessing this is a trig class.. right?

let's solve for the 3 different angles that the ladders make , each going to 8 feel.  Obviously, nobody would really do this with a ladder they would just lean it against the wall . and if it's taller than where they want to climb, they would just go up part way.   so anyway,     find the 3 different angles.  

look above to see which formula to use.

I like SOH b/c it seems to have all the pieces of the triangle we want to work with.

ladder 1  ( 10')

Sin(∅) = Opp / Hyp

Sin(∅) = 8 / 10

∅ = arcSin (4/5)

[ first, yes, I just reduced the fraction, then I did the arcSin on both sides, I think you might know how to do that already ? ]

∅ = 53.13010 °

( yes, I used my calculator to find that,  calculators are okay to use when figuring out non standard angles )

ladder 2 (12')

Sin(∅) = 8/12

∅ = arcSin (2/3)

∅ = 41.81031°

ladder 3 (15')

Sin(∅) = 8/15

∅ = arcSin (8/15)

∅ = 32.230952°

now use our Tan function to find the Adjacent side which is the distance from the wall

Tan(∅)= Opp / Adj

Adj = Opp / Tan(∅)

( I did some quick algebra to move the side we want to solve for, now plug and chug all 3 angles  )

ladder 1

Adj = 8 / Tan(53.13010)

Adj = 6.0000005    

ladder 2

Adj = 8 / Tan(41.81031)

Adj = 8.94427

ladder 3

Adj = 8 / Tan(32.230952)

Adj = 12.688577

so the 10' ladder is 6 feet from the wall

the 12' ladder is 8.9 feet from the wall

the 15 foot ladder is 12.7 feet from the wall.

I really don't think that 15' ladder is going to stay on the wall.. if Alex climbs it... it's way way too far out... it will just fall straight down the wall  :/   Maybe another math problem for the forces involved  :P

The Trial Urban District Assessment (TUDA) is a government-sponsored study of student achievement in large urban school district
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

A. Because the sample size is very large.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample is quite large, so the t test is safe. With a sample size of at least 100, this test is going to be safe.

So the correct answer is:

A. Because the sample size is very large.
