56 miles, The car traveled m miles during the first hour and m squared miles during the second hour. The ratio m/m squared = 1/7 and cross multiplying yields m squared = 7m, so m=7. This means that the total distance traveled was 7+7squared = 56 miles

The population of a city (in millions) at time t (in years) is P(t)=2.6 e 0.005t , where t=0 is the year 2000. When will the pop
lora16 [44]

Answer:

  year 2139

Step-by-step explanation:

The population will double when the factor e^(.005t) is 2.

  e^(.005t) = 2

  .005t = ln(2)

  t = ln(2)/0.005 = 138.6

The population will be double its size at t=0 when t=138.6. That is the population will be about 5.2 million in the year 2139.

Write the standard form of the line that passes through (-1,-3) and (2,1).
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Line\:passing\:through\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(2,\:1\right)\\\\\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\\\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:passing\:through\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(2,\:1\right)\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:slope\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right),\:\left(2,\:1\right):\quad \\m=\frac{4}{3}\\\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:-3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)\\\left\\

\\m=\frac{1-\left(-3\right)}{2-\left(-1\right)}\\\\Refine\\\\m=\frac{4}{3}\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:}y\mathrm{\:intercept}:\quad b=-\frac{5}{3}\\\\y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3}\\

Convert equation to standard form

y - \frac{4}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} = 0\\\\Multiply \:through\: by\: 3;\\\\3\times (y - \frac{4}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} )=0\\\\3y -4x+5 = 0\\Arrange\:n\:form\:of \:;\\Ax +By = C\\\\-4x +3y =-5

Aiden is trying to save money and has $1800 to set aside in some type of savings account. He checked his bank one day, and found
kipiarov [429]
I = Prt

Interest on CD = 0.0425 x $1,800 = $76.5
Interest on savings = 0.0275 x $1,800 = $49.5

Difference of interest on CD and Interest on savings = $76.5 - $49.5 = $27

Therefre, he will earn $27 more if he invest in a CD rather than in a savings.
