We assume the annual percentage increase is the same. We will work out the constant k using the formula

We have
P = 76
A = 72
t = 6 years (from 1992 to 1998)

Substitute into the formula
76=72e^{6k}
\frac{76}{72}=e^{8k}
Take log both sides give
ln( \frac{76}{72})=ln(e^{6k})
0.05406722127=6k
k=0.009

We can now work out the number of population by the end of 2012 using the formula

We have
A = 72 million
k = 0.009
t = 10 years (1992 to 2012)

P=72e^{0.009*10}P=78.78≈79 million

This question<br>find the value of x y and z​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

x = 6

y = 24

z = there is no z?

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles of a polygon add up to 360 degrees

The 2 parellel lines on top and bottom mean that there are 2 right angles on the left side

3y + 18 = 90

3y = 72

y = 24

15x + 30 + 10x = 180

25x = 150

x = 6

The graph to answer the question and the answer choices.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

  y ≥ 3x -1; x +3y ≤ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Both lines are solid, so the only viable choices are those with "or equal to" in the comparison operators: the 2nd and 4th choices.

The line with a slope of +3 is shaded <u><em>above</em></u> the line, so that will correspond to the inequality ...

  y ≥ 3x -1 . . . . . . . . . . found only in the 4th choice.

An edging was placed around a circular garden. How long was the edging if the radius of the garden was 3m. Use TT = 3.14
Tom [10]
Edging is 18.84m. to find the edging you  must do the radis times 2, then that answer by pi (3.14). So you do 3x2=6, then 6x3.14=18.84m
