Answer: B. Jonesville is growing linearly and Smithville is growing exponentially.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear growth :

  • Population grow by a constant amount after each time period.
  • The rate of change of dependent variable with respect to independent variable is a constant.
  • It is represented by line on graph.
  • Equation for linear growth : y=mx+c , c = initial value and m is the rate of change of y with respect to x.

Exponential growth :

  • Population grow by a constant ratio .
  • It is represented by a curve on graph.
  • Equation for exponential growth : y=a(1+r)^x , a = initial value and r is  rate of growth ( in decimal ) and x is time period.

Given : Jonesville​'s population grows by 170 people per year.

i.e .Population grow by a constant amount per year.

⇒ Jonesville is growing linearly.

The population of smithville grows by 7​% per year.

i.e. Population grow by a constant ratio.

⇒Smithville is growing exponentially.

Hence, the true statement is "B. Jonesville is growing linearly and Smithville is growing exponentially."

M×10+m×13=138<br><br>sorry theres another loll I'm so bad at these
Dimas [21]
So first of all you would add the two together
so it would be m23.

138÷23 would equal 6,

therefore m would equal six

to check it substitute m for 6 and you should get 138!

Consider the following. y = x2 y = 20 − x Maple Generated Plot (a) Find the area of the region by integrating with respect to x.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

  area = 121.5

Step-by-step explanation:

See below for a plot and the integral. We assume you are interested in the entire bounded region.

__

  \displaystyle\text{area}=\int_{-5}^4{(20-x-x^2)}\,dx=\left.20x-\dfrac{x^2}{2}-\dfrac{x^3}{3}\right|_{-5}^4\\\\=20(4-(-5))-\dfrac{4^2-(-5)^2}{2}-\dfrac{4^3-(-5)^3}{3}\\\\=180+\dfrac{9}{2}-63=121.5
