A village experienced 2% population growth, compounded continuously, each year for 10 years. At the end of the 10 years, the pop

ulation was 158.
1. What was the population of the village at the beginning of the 10 years according to the exponential growth function? Round your answer up to the next whole number, and do not include units.

Answer:

The initial population at the beginning of the 10 years was 129.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the village may be modeled by the following function.

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

In which P is the population after t hours, P_{0} is the initial population and r is the growth rate, in decimal.

In this problem, we have that:

P(10) = 158, r = 0.02.

So

158 = P_{0}e^{0.02*10}

P_{0} = 158*e^{-0.2}

P_{0} = 129

The initial population at the beginning of the 10 years was 129.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula representing the population growth after t years can be expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A is the population of the village after t years.

P represents the initial population of the village at the beginning of the 10 years.

r represents population growth rate

n represents the number of times that the population was compounded in each year.

From the given information,

A = 158

r = 2% = 2/100 = 0.02

t = 10 years

n = 1 because it was compounded continuously each year.

Therefore

158 = P(1+0.02/1)^1×10

158 = P(1.02)^10

P = 158/(1.02)^10 = 129.615

Approximately 130 to the nearest whole number.

If vector u has its initial point at (-7, 3) and its terminal point at (5, -6), u =
attashe74 [19]

First of all, let <span>θθ</span> be some angle in <span><span>(0,π)</span><span>(0,π)</span></span>. Then

<span><span><span>θθ</span> is acute <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ>0</span><span>cos⁡θ>0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is right <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ=0</span><span>cos⁡θ=0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is obtuse <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ<0</span><span>cos⁡θ<0</span></span>.</span></span>

Now, to see if (say) angle <span>AA</span> of the triangle <span><span>ABC</span><span>ABC</span></span> is acute/right/obtuse, we need to check whether <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span> is positive/zero/negative. But what is <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span>? It is the angle made by the vectors <span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AB</span>→</span></span> and <span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AC</span>→</span></span>. (When you are computing the angle at a particular vertex <span>vv</span>, you should make sure that both the vectors corresponding to the two adjacent sides have that vertex <span>vv</span> as the initial point.) We will first compute these two vectors:

<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span></span><span><span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span><span><span><span>AC</span>→</span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span></span>Therefore, the angle between these vectors is given by:<span><span><span>cos∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>⋅<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>||<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>|</span></span>=…</span>(1)</span><span>(1)<span>cos⁡∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>⋅<span><span>AC</span>→</span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span>→</span>||<span><span>AC</span>→</span>|</span></span>=…</span></span></span>Can you take it from here? From the sign of this value, you should be able to decide if angle <span>AA</span> is acute/right/obtuse.

Now, do the same procedure for the remaining two angles <span>BB</span> and <span>CC</span> as well. That should help you solve the problem.

A shortcut. Since you are not interested in the actual values of the angles, but you need only whether they are acute, obtuse or right, it is enough to compute only the sign of the numerator (the dot product between the vectors) in formula (1). The denominator is always positive.
