The population, P, of six towns with time t in years are given by the following exponential equations:
Oksanka [162]

Given:

The population, P, of six towns with time t in years are given by the following exponential equations:

(i) P=1000(1.08)^t

(ii) P = 600 (1.12)^2

(iii) P =2500 (0.9)^t

(iv) P=1200 (1.185)^t

(v) P=800 (0.78)^t

(vi) P=2000 (0.99)^t

To find:

The town whose population is decreasing the fastest.

Solution:

The general form of an exponential function is:

P(t)=ab^t

Where, a is the initial value, b is the growth or decay factor.

If b>1, then the function is increasing and if 0<b<1, then the function is decreasing.

The values of b for six towns are 1.08, 1.12, 0.9, 1.185, 0.78, 0.99 respectively. The minimum value of b is 0.78, so the population of (v) town  P=800 (0.78)^t is decreasing the fastest.

Therefore, the correct option is b.

The points (-2,-10) and (-1, v) fall on a line with a slope of 8. What is the value of v?
Nutka1998 [239]
I think the answer is -2

Following the rule of “rise over run”, the fraction form of the gradient it 8 over 1 (8/1)
This means you move up 8 units, and move across 1 unit.
The final coordinate is (-1, -2)
V = -2

Hope this helps!

Answer:

  • $10,000 at 5%
  • $22,000 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 6%. Then 32000-x is the amount invested at 5%, and the total interest earned is ...

  0.06x +0.05(32000 -x) = 1820

  0.01x +1600 = 1820 . . . . simplify

  0.01x = 220 . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 1600

  x = 22,000 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 100

  32000 -x = 10,000

Phyllis invested $22,000 at 6% and $10,000 at 5%.
