Answer:

Two more people.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 people can mow a lawn in 6 hours, then 4 people can mow 1/6 of a lawn in 1 hour.

If 4 people can mow 1/6 of a lawn in 1 hour, then 1 person can mow 1/24 of a lawn in 1 hour.

If 1 person can mow 1/24 of a lawn in 1 hour, then 6 people can mow 1/4 of a lawn in 1 hour.

If 6 people can mow 1/4 of a lawn in 1 hour, then 6 people can mow a lawn in 4 hours.

6 people minus 4 people is 2 people.

netineya [11]
To solve the question we use the compound interest formula which is given by:
A=p(1+r)^(nt)
where:
A=future value
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of terms
t=time
thus plugging in the values in the formula we shall have:
A=835(1+0.04)^(4t)
simplifying this we get the sequence:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
Thus the answer to the sequence will be:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)

The reasonable domain has a minimum value.

The reasonable range has a minimum value of 30,000.

The reasonable range has an implied, but unknown, maximum value.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Years cannot be anything below 0.

2. The domain includes 0 because the answer can be the initial value.

3. 30,000 is the initial value and is the minimum solution.

4. The range has a minimal of 30,000.

5. Logically, we know city populations cant be numbers like a billion but we prove that mathematically.
