In 2006, the population of Tewksbury, Rhode Island was 25,000, and it was growing at an annual rate of 2.2%. What is the growth

factor for the town? Write an equation to model Tewksbury’s growth. Use your equation to estimate the population of Tewksbury in 2011. Round your response to the nearest whole number.

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

Given the information in the diagram below, find the measure of angle N. Use RACE and complete sentences to show how you found t
Sonja [21]

Answer:

m<N = 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∆JKL and ∆MNL are isosceles ∆ (isosceles ∆ has 2 equal sides).

m<J = 64° (given)

Required:

m<N

SOLUTION:

m<K = m<J (base angles of an isosceles ∆ are equal)

m<K = 64° (Substitution)

m<K + m<J + m<JLK = 180° (sum of ∆)

64° + 64° + m<JLK = 180° (substitution)

128° + m<JLK = 180°

subtract 128 from each side

m<JLK = 180° - 128°

m<JLK = 52°

In isosceles ∆MNL, m<MLN and <M are base angles of the ∆. Therefore, they are of equal measure.

Thus:

m<MLN = m<JKL (vertical angles are congruent)

m<MLN = 52°

m<M = m<MLN (base angles of isosceles ∆MNL)

m<M = 52° (substitution)

m<N + m<M° + m<MLN = 180° (Sum of ∆)

m<N + 52° + 52° = 180° (Substitution)

m<N + 104° = 180°

subtract 104 from each side

m<N = 180° - 104°

m<N = 76°
