Tewksbury Population In 2011

=
25000 {( {1.022)}^{2011 - 2006} }

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

skad [1K]

Answer:

The treatment should be stated by the four companies,since it more interested in the quality among each of the companies to be compared.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the example given, Since an electronic company wants to differentiate  their cell phones quality to the cell phones from their three main competitors.

If ANOVA is used to determine the average number of defects, then the treatment  should be defined for the four companies because it is more interested in comparing the quality among the different companies.

Differentiation. questions 1 and 2
drek231 [11]
For 11, we start by plugging 1 in, getting 2(1)^2+1-5=-2=y

Plugging 1+m instead, we get 2(1+m)^2+1+m-5=2(1+2m+m^2)+1+m-5
= 2+4m+2m^2+1+m-5= 2m^2+5m-2. We have to find the difference between that and -2, so 2m^2+5m-2 -(-2)=2m^2+5m

Differentiating 12, we use the Power Rule to get -6x^2+14, and plugging x=1 into it, we get -6(1)^2+14=-6+14=18

Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the
k0ka [10]
Given the pair of simultaneous equation:
y=-2/5x-2
y=5x+1
To evaluate the solution of the system of equation from the graph, we obtain the point at which the two linear equations have intersected. taking the values of x and y from the point of intersection that will be the solution of the system of linear equations. 
In our case the straight lines have intersected at the point (-0.5, -1.75). This implies that:
x=-0.5
y=-1.75
hence the answer is a] (-0.5, -1.75)
