P(t) = Po(1 + r)^t; where Po is the initial population = 20. r is the rate = 50% = 0.5 and t is the time = 1 weeks

P(t) = 20(1 + 0.5)^12 = 20(1.5)^12 = 20(129.7) = 2,594.9 ≈ 2,595

Write an equation in standard form of the hyperbola described.
marishachu [46]

Check the picture below, so the hyperbola looks more or less like so, so let's find the length of the conjugate axis, or namely let's find the "b" component.

\textit{hyperbolas, horizontal traverse axis } \\\\ \cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ b^2}=1 \qquad \begin{cases} center\ ( h, k)\\ vertices\ ( h\pm a, k)\\ c=\textit{distance from}\\ \qquad \textit{center to foci}\\ \qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0\\ a=2\\ c=4 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{b^2} \\\\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies 4^2=2^2+b^2\implies 16=4+b^2\implies \underline{12=b^2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{12}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{x^2}{4}-\cfrac{y^2}{12}}

What is an example of a country with this economic system?
Viktor [21]

Answer:In a free market economy, the law of supply and demand, rather than a central government, regulates production and labor. Companies sell goods and services at the highest price consumers are willing to pay, while workers earn the highest wages companies are willing to pay for their services. A purely capitalist economy is a free market economy; the profit motive drives all commerce and forces businesses to operate as efficiently as possible to avoid losing market share to competitors.
