Answer:

(A) The population's growth rate in equation form is y = (0.016t * 7652) + 7652

(B) y = (0.016t * 7652) + 7652 =

y = (0.016(8) * 7652) + 7652 =

y = (0.128 * 7652) + 7652 =

y = 979.456 + 7652 =

y = 8631.456 (Or About) 8631

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) Y = the total population of the town. 0.016 is 1.6% just in its original form. T = the year in which were trying to find the town's total population. 7652 is the total population of the town in 2016. With this information, the equation reads, The total population of the town (Y) is equal to 16% (0.016) of the current year's population (T) added to 2016's population of 7652. (This last sentence can also be read what is 1.6% of the towns population in the year were trying to find. Because the population is always growing, 1.6% gets multiplied as to scale with the total population in year T)

(B) We just substitute (T) for 2024, or 8 years after 2016 (2024-2016) and simplify the equation we made.

A=3, B=1, shrunk by AB or 3 units, about 1/3
C=2, horizontal shift by C/B or 2/1 or just 2, to the left
D=4, vertical shift upwards of 4 units

A farm packages eggs into cartons that hold two dozen eggs each. Last week, 5,398 eggs were collected. How many cartons will the

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

225

Step-by-step explanation:

We're told that each carton holds two dozen eggs, or 24 eggs. To find out how many cartons the farm will need, we divide the total amount of eggs by the amount of eggs that fit in each carton. So:

$\frac{5398}{24} = 224.916667$

Since the number is a decimal, you need to round up to make sure every egg is in a carton. So, your answer is 225.
