Answer:

133,787 residents

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing we need to do here is calculate the number of 5 years between 2020 and 1990

That would be 2020-1990 = 30/5 = 6

Now to estimate the present population, we will be needing an exponential equation

P = I(1-r)^n

where P is the present population at 2020

I is the population at 1990 which is 182,000

r is the percentage decrease every 5 years which is 5% or simply 5/100 = 0.05

n is the number of 5 years between 1990 and 2020 which is 6

Plugging all these values we have;

P = 182000(1-0.05)^6

P = 182000(0.95)^6

P = 133,786.724

To the nearest whole number, P = 133,787 residents

A farmer has 64 feet of fence to enclose a rectangular vegetable garden. which dimensions would result in the biggest area for t
Blababa [14]
The dimensions that would result to maximum area will be found as follows:
let the length be x, the width will be 32-x
thus the area will be given by:
P(x)=x(32-x)=32x-x²
At maximum area:
dP'(x)=0
from the expression:
P'(x)=32-2x=0
solving for x
32=2x
x=16 inches
thus the dimensions that will result in maximum are is length=16 inches and width=16 inches

A group of 20 children were asked their age and how many pages they read in a week. The scatter plot shows the data.
vovangra [49]
The outlier would be the one with (17, 72) coordinates. If interpreted, the child is 17 years old and the number of pages the child reads in a week is 72. He appeared the outlier because his data was too far from the pattern of data relative to the sample.
