Answer:
p(t) = 0.19e0.10t
=>p'(t) = 0.19e0.10t (0.10*1)
=>p'(t) = 0.019e0.10t
t = 0 represents 1994
for 2002, t=2002-1994 =8
in 2002
average price =p(8)
=>average price = 0.19e0.10*8
=>average price =0.422853... million
rate of increase =p'(8)
=>rate of increase = 0.019e0.10*8
=>rate of increase =0.0422853... million per year
p(8)=$ 0.42 million
p'(8)=$ 0.042 million per year
8 in the 10,000s place is worth 80,000.
8 in the hundreds place is worth 800.
80,000/800 = 100
Answer: 100 times.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram of the problem is drawn and attached.
Given that:



Also

First, recall that

So if
, then
.
Second,

We know that
and
, which means we should also have
.
Third,

but as we've already shown, we need to have
, so we pick the negative root.
Finally,

Unfortunately, none of the given answers match, so perhaps I've misunderstood one of the given conditions... In any case, this answer should tell you everything you need to know to find the right solution from the given options.
