Ok so the first step is to -1 from both sides. On the right side it cancels out and on the left side it = -16. So now your left with -16= 8x. Your still not done yet though. So now what you want to do is divide both sides by 8. On the right side it cancels out and you bring down x and on the left side it equals -2. So x=-2. So to verify it you have to plu -2 back into the equation. So -15= 8 Times -2 +1 so 8 Times -2 = -16 plus one is -15. Hoped that helped!!

In 2004 the population in Morganton, Georgia, was 43,000. The population in Morganton doubled by 2010. If the growth rate remain
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

263,606.9

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2004 the population in Morganton, Georgia, was 43,000.

(0, 43000)

The population in Morganton doubled by 2010

In 6 years the population is doubled (86000)

(6,86000)

A= a(b)^t

Use (0,43000) in the above equation

A= a(b)^t\\43000= a(b)^0\\a=43000

Now plug in (6,86000)

A= a(b)^t\\A= 43000(b)^t\\86000=43000(b)^6\\2=b^6\\b=\sqrt[6]{2} \\b=1.12

A=43000(1.12)^t

Now find out A when t=16 (2020)

A=43000(1.12)^t\\A=43000(1.12)^{16}\\A=263606.9

The second question with the blank please
konstantin123 [22]
Usually called "half of base times height", the area of a triangle is given by the formula below.Area=ba2whereb  is the length of the base
a  is the length of the corresponding altitude

You can choose any side to be the base. It need not be the one drawn at the bottom of the triangle. The altitude must be the one corresponding to the base you choose. The altitude is the line perpendicular to the selected base from the opposite vertex.

In the figure above, one side has been chosen as the base and its corresponding altitude is shown.

1) Find the missing side.
kari74 [83]

Answer:

25inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so there is something called a Pythagorean theorem.

It's a²+b²=c²

It works on right triangles

C is the longest side or the side not touching the right angle

and a and b is the other 2 sides

so the missing side is 24²+7²=Missing side or c²

24²=576 and 7²= 49  

576+49=625

\sqrt{625}=25
