Answer: In 2008 the population was 21,525,144

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the following formula for Exponential decay:

P=P_0(1-r)^t

Where P_0 is the initial population in the year 0, r is the rate of decay and t is the time.

In this case, you can identify that:

P_0=25,300,987\\\\r=2\%\\\\t=8

Therefore, substituting these values into the formula for Exponential decay, you get:

P=P_0(1-r)^t\\\\P=(25,300,987)(1-\frac{2}{100})^8\\\\P=21,525,144

Then, in 2008 the population was 21,525,144

Answer:

First Answer: A = $ 4,247.03

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 4,000.00

I (interest) = $ 247.03

Second Answer : A = $ 6,325.22

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 5,500.00

I (interest) = $ 825.22

Third Answer: A = $ 7,735.55

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 7,000.00

I (interest) = $ 735.5

Fourth Answer: A = $ 7,735.55

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 7,000.00

I (interest) = $ 735.55

Answer:

3/3 is equivilant to 1.

Multiplying 6/4 by 1, would be 6/4. Also, multiplying 6/4 by 3/3 would be 18/12, which could be simplified to 6/4.

Hope this helps!

Help with length of hypotenuse ​
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

sqrt(10) *x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (3x)^2 = hypotenuse ^2

x^2 + 9x^2 = hypotenuse ^2

10x^2 = hypotenuse  ^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt( 10x^2) =  sqrt(hypotenuse  ^2)

sqrt(10) * x = hypotenuse
