4=1.1e^(0.047t)  divide both sides by 1.1

40/11=e^(0.047t)  take the natural log of both sides

ln(40/11)=0.047t  divide both sides by 0.047

t=ln(40/11)/0.047

t≈24.5

1980+24.5

2007.5

So during 2007 the price will reach $4.

Answer:

The option A.) 2007 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula which is to be used is given :

P(t) = 1.1\cdot e^{0.047t}

where P(t) is the function of time t and t is the time in years after January 1 , 1980

Now, we need to find the year when the price will reach $4

So, substituting P(t) = 4 and finding the value of t from the given equation.

\implies 4=1.1\cdot e^{0.047t}\\\\\implies 3.64=e^{0.047t}\\\\\text{Taking natural log ln on both the sides}\\\\\implies \ln 3.64=\ln e^{0.047t}\\\\\implies 1.29=0.047\cdot t\\\\\implies t = 27.49

So, t = 27.49 which is approximately equals to 27.5 years

So, 27.5 years after January 1, 1980 is the year 2007

Hence, The price will reach $4 in the year 2007

Therefore, The option A.) 2007 is correct

Consider the sequence 10, 2..
romanna [79]

Answer:  see below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) 10, 2, 1.2, 1.12, 1.112, 1.1112

t_n=\dfrac{t_{n-1}}{10}+1

t₁ = 10

t₂ = 10/10 + 1    = 2

t₃ = 2/10 + 1     = 1.2

t₄ = 1.2/10 + 1   = 1.12

t₅ = 1.12/10 + 1  = 1.112

t₆ = 1.112/10 + 1 = 1.1112

2)  10, 2, -2, -4, -5, -5.5, ...

t_n=\dfrac{t_{n-1}}{2}-3

t₁ = 10

t₂ = 10/2 - 3 =   2

t₃ = 2/2 - 3  =  -2

t₄ = -2/2 - 3 =  -4

t₅ = -4/2 - 3 =  -5

t₆ = -5/2 - 3 = -5.5

I need help with both of these
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

  1. 13x² - 19x + 23
  2. -16x +17

Step-by-step explanation:

1 . (4x² - 9x + 16) + (7 + 9x² - 10x)

4x² - 9x + 16 + 7 + 9x² - 10x

13x² - 19x + 23

2 . (-2x + 6) - (14x - 11)

-2x + 6 - 14x + 11

-16x +17

Find the unit rate for each, then compare. Which is faster?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

8 laps in 70 seconds is faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we divide 70/8 and 98/12 we get the following:

70/8= 8.75

98/12=8.16

8.75>8.16

The unit rate is 1 lap in 8.75 seconds and 1 lap in 8.16 seconds
