Answer:

The growth factor is 1.022

y = (25000) (1.022)^x

y =27874 people in 2011

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth is modeled by the equation

y= a b^x

where a is the initial amount and b is 1 + the growth percent  and x is the time in years

a =25000

b = 1+.022 = 1.022


y = (25000) (1.022)^x

We need to find the population ins 2011

2011-2006 is 5 years  so x=5

y = 25000 (1.022)^5

y = 27873.7 people

Rounding because we don't have parts of people

y =27874 people

for A you should take each plotted point and change the sign of the x values. for example (-1,3) should become (1,3) and (-4,4) should become (4,4)

for B take each point and flip the variables and x's sign. (-1,3) should become (3,1)

for C take every x value and subtract 2. (-1,3) should become (-3,3)

for D take each point and flip the variables and y's sign. (-1,3) should become (-3,-1)

We use the formula d = s*t where d is distance, s is speed and t is time.

d = 64km*7.5

d = 480km
