Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{0.0693t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t.

This means that the population growth is modeled by the following differential equation:

$\frac{dP(t)}{dt} = rP(t)$

Which has the following solution:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

In which P(t) is the population after t years, P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate.

The population has doubled in 10 years

This means that $P(10) = 2P(0)$ . We use this to find r.

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

$2P(0) = P(0)e^{10r}$

$e^{10r} = 2$

$\ln{e^{10r}} = \ln{2}$

$10r = \ln{2}$

$r = \frac{\ln{2}}{10}$

$r = 0.0693$

So the equation that will estimate the population of the community in t years is:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{0.0693t}$

Tresset [83]

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{3}$ cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

$w$ is the number of cups of water to be mixed with flour for making tortillas.

$f$ is the number of cups of flour to be mixed with water for making tortillas.

Relation between $w$ and $f$ is given by the equation:

$w=0.75f$

To find:

Number of cups of flour to be added if number of cups of water to be used is 1.

Solution:

We are given an equation with two variables.

Value of one variable is given and we have to find the value of other variable.

$1=0.75f\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{1}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow f = 1.33$

Number of cups of flour to be added = $1\frac{1}{3}$
