1 answer:

5 0

First you plug in for x,

2(y-3)+y=12

Then you solve for y
2y-5+y=12
-10y+y=12
-9y=12
-9y/9=12/-9
y=-1.333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Answer:

2019.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for the years from 2002 and projected to 2024, the national health care expenditures H, in billions of dollars, can be modeled by $H = 1,500e^{0.053t}$ where t is the number of years past 2000.

To find the year in which national health care expenditures expected to reach $4.0 trillion (that is, $4,000 billion), we will substitute $H=4,000$ in our given formula and solve for t as:
