The population of a particular town is given by the function P(t) = 920(1.06)2t, where t is the time in years and P(t) is the po

pulation after t years. What is the current population, the percentage growth rate, and the population size (rounded to the nearest whole person) in 4 years?
A: 920, 6% annually, and 1,161
B:920, 6% semiannually, and 1,466
C: 920, 0.6% per year, and 7,801
D:920, 60% semiannually, and 4,135

For P(t) = 920*1.06^(2t), the current population is 920, the percentage growth rate is 6% semiannually, and the population in 4 years will be 920*1.06^8 = 1466.

Selection B is appropriate.

_____
The 2 in the exponent means the growth factor 1.06 is applied twice for each increment of t, that is, twice in 1 year (semiannually).

Hezekiel runs 1000 m at a rateof 3 minutes per km. how long does he take to run 500 m​
lana66690 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 km = 1000 m

(hence the term "kilo" which means 1000).

so. he runs 1000 m at the rate of 3 minutes per km, that means 3 minutes per 1000 m.

now, we can see the solution already with our eyes.

but let's do it formally :

the rate or ratio between time and distance must be the same for the same speed.

so,

3 min / 1000 m = x min / 500 m

500 m × 3 min / 1000 m = x min

1/2 × 3 min = x min

3/2 = 1.5 min = x min

so, it takes him 1.5 minutes (90 seconds) to run 500 m.

The simple interest on an investment of $8000 for one year is $360.
elena55 [62]
I = PRT
$360 = $8000 x R X 1
$360 = $8000 X R
$360/$8000 X R /$8000
0.045 = R
R= 0.045 * 100
R = 4.5%

ron’s class donated d dollars to a local charity. Danny’s class donated 21% more than Ron’s class. Which expression shows the am
Arte-miy333 [17]

You can clearly eliminate 0.79d as an answer, because that is less than the amount that Ron's class donated. The last answer is also incorrect, because it states that Danny's class donated 21 more cents than Ron's class. The problem says that Danny's class donated 21% more than Ron's. The only way that d + 0.21 would be correct is if Ron's class donated $1. The problem does not say that. Therefore, we are left with two possibilities. The first choice is the correct one. Why?

21% more than Ron's class' donation would be the amount that Ron's class donated + an additional 21%. If Ron's class donated d dollars, then an additional 21% would be 0.21 * d = 0.21d. Hence, Danny's class donated a total of:

d + 0.21d = d(1 + 0.21) = 1.21d
