If the population of a country is growing at a rate of 2.2% compounded

Mathematics

Stells [14]3 years ago

It will take 31.9 years.

The general form of this equation is

y = a(1+r)ˣ, where y is the total population, a is the initial population, r is the growth rate as a decimal number, and x is the amount of time.  For our problem, we have

120000 = 60000(1+0.022)ˣ

[The 120,000 is because we are doubling the 60,000 population]

Dividing both sides by 60,000,

120000/60000 = 60000(1+0.022)ˣ/60000
2 = 1.022ˣ

Using logarithms to solve this, we have
log_{1.022}2=x
\\
\\31.85=x
\\
\\31.9\approx x

Convert the equation − x − 2 y = 8 from standard to slope-intercept form
Molodets [167]

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have our equation in standard form: -x - 2y = 8. We can use simplifying rules to isolate y on one side of the equation and give us our y = mx + b format. I'll begin by adding x to both sides.

-x - 2y = 8

-2y = x + 8

Now that we have y on one side, we can divide everything by -2.

-2y/-2 = x/-2 + 8/-2

y = -1/2x - 4

That looks like y = mx + b form.

If you have any further questions or need clarification on anything, let me know!

prisoha [69]
To answer the question above, divide the total amount raised (T) during fundraising by the number of future exhibits (n). The amount of money (m) each exhibit will receive, 
                                  m = T / n = ($1664) / 8 = $208
Thus, each exhibit will receive $208.
