A rug maker is using a pattern that is a rectangle with a length of 96 inches and a width of 60 inches. The rug maker wants to increase each dimension by a different amount. Let l and w be the increases in the length and width. Write and simplify an expression for the perimeter of the new pattern.

p=2(96+l)+2(60+w)
This is the equation. p is for perimeter. (96+l) represents the original length plus the change in length. The 2 before (96+l) represents that there is one length on each side of the rectangle.
Same for the width. (60+w) represents the original width plus the change in width. The 2 before (60+w) represents that there is one width on each side of the rectangle.
The simplified equation is p=(192+2l)+(120+2w) (this is your answer)

I hope this helps!

The human population of the earth can be modeled by p(T)=3.1(1.016)^t , where T represents the number of year since 1963 , and p

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

p(t)=3.1(1.016)^t

The base of the growth rate is:

1.016 = 1 + 0.016

It represent a 1.6% of growth per year.

Increasing

p(55) = 7.42 means:

55 years after 1963, in the year 2018, the population of Earth is 7.42 billions
