Answer:
first one
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value functions usually have that shape. The only absolute value function out of all of the answer choices is the first one.
Complete question:
The growth of a city is described by the population function p(t) = P0e^kt where P0 is the initial population of the city, t is the time in years, and k is a constant. If the population of the city atis 19,000 and the population of the city atis 23,000, which is the nearest approximation to the population of the city at
Answer:
27,800
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to obtain the initial population(P0) and constant value (k)
Population function : p(t) = P0e^kt
At t = 0, population = 19,000
19,000 = P0e^(k*0)
19,000 = P0 * e^0
19000 = P0 * 1
19000 = P0
Hence, initial population = 19,000
At t = 3; population = 23,000
23,000 = 19000e^(k*3)
23000 = 19000 * e^3k
e^3k = 23000/ 19000
e^3k = 1.2105263
Take the ln
3k = ln(1.2105263)
k = 0.1910552 / 3
k = 0.0636850
At t = 6
p(t) = P0e^kt
p(6) = 19000 * e^(0.0636850 * 6)
P(6) = 19000 * e^0.3821104
P(6) = 19000 * 1.4653739
P(6) = 27842.104

Answer:
(1/2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, determine y in first equation: 2x+y=5 or y=5-2x
replace value of y determined in first equation (5-2x) into 2nd equation
4x-3(5-2x)=-10
4x-15+6x=10
10x=5
x=1/2
put value of x into either equation to solve for y so
2(1/2)+y=5
1+y=5
y=4
answer: x=1/2, y=4
check answer by substituting x and y into either equation:
4x-3y=-10
4(1/2)-3(4)=-10
2-12=-10
-10=-10
or
2x+y=5
2(1/2)+4=5
1+4=5
5=5
