The population of Rwanda in 2016 was about 11.8 million. The population tends to increase by about 2% per year. Which equation d

etermines the estimated population in millions t years after 2016?
P=11.8(0.02)^t

P=11.8(1.02)^t

P=11.8(2)^t

P=11.8(0.98)^t

Answer:

B - P=11.8(1.02)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is defined as:

y=ab^{x}.  

Recall, a is the starting value, b is the rate, and x is the input (often time).

We will substitute a=11.8 million, b=1.02, and x=t for years. Notice b=1.02 and not 0.02. Because the population is increasing, we multiply by 1+r to add the growth onto the current population.

We write: y=11.8(1.02)^{t} where y is population in millions.

At the beginning of the week, James stopped by a local grocery store to buy fruit. He bought five bananas and three pears at a t
suter [353]
Lets try to solve this problem using 2 equations, also,we will have bananas=b and pears =p

5b+3p= $3.80
2b+4p= $3.20  i will divide this equation by 2 and get
b+2p= $ 1.60  we subtract 2p from both side so i can find the cost for 1 banana
b+2p-2p=1.60-2p
b= $1.60-2p

I will replace the b in the first equation now,

5(1.60-2p)+3p=$3.80
8-10p+3p=3.80   solving for p
8-7p=3.80     we subtract 8 from both sides
-7p=-8+3.80
-7p=-4.20  we multiply both sides by (-1)
7p=4.20  we divide now both sides by 7
p=0.60   a pear cost 0.60 cents

a banana is b=1.60-2p,   b=0.40 cents

If 75 is added to a number, the result is 39 less than three times the number.find the number
Luba_88 [7]

First, we would set the number to x.

Then, we turn the words into an equation.

x+75 = 3x-39

Isolate the x.

-2x = -114

So...

x = 57

can you help me with number nine it says find the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points ​
Hatshy [7]

How to find slope?

  • Slope is represented as m

If two point are

  • (x_1,y1)
  • (x2,y2)

Slope is given by

\\ \sf\longmapsto Slope=m=\tan\Theta=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}
