Answer:

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students in the school in t years after 2002 can be modeled by the following function:

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which N(0) is the number of students in 2002 and r is the rate of change.

If 1+r>1, the function is a growth function.

If 1-r<1, the function is a decay function.

In 2002, there were 972 students enrolled at Oakview High School.

This means that N(0) = 972

Since then, the number of students has increased by 1.5% each year.

Increase, so r is positive. This means that r = 0.015

Then

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1+0.015)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

Find the number of students enrolled in 2014.

2014 is 2014-2002 = 12 years after 2002, so this is N(12).

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

N(12) = 972(1.015)^{12}

N(12) = 1162

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.

torisob [31]

Answer:

Hey there! The answer to your question will be below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer to your question is 12x - 24=60

So we know that 12x will be the number of cookies.

It says that she kept two boxes for herself, and than she took away 24 boxes which will leave us with 60.

Here is the work:

12 (x-2)= 60

12x-24=60

So the answer should be 12x -24 = 60

Hope this helps!

How are problems like these solved
Flura [38]

the angles on the opposite sides of a quadrilateral touching the circumference adds up to 180 degrees

so,

(21x-2) + (38x +5) = 180

21x+38x −2+5=180

59x+3=180

59x=177

x=3
