After years of maintaining a steady population of 32,000, the population of a town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year an
elixir [45]

Answer:

The equation used to predict the number of people living in the town after x years is y = 32,000 (1.08)x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Initial population: 32,000 </em>
  • <em>Growth per year: 8% </em>
  • <em>Years: x </em>

So, to obtain "y" (the number of people living in the town after x years), we have to multiply the initial population by 1+ 0.08 (the growth rate is 8%/100=0.08 and the original value) and the number of years (x).

Mathematically speaking:

y = 32,000 (1+0.08) x

y= 32,000 (1.08) x

The equation used to predict the number of people living in the town after x years is y = 32,000 (1.08)x

A hot piece of metal is cooling at a constant rate of 10 *c per minute
timurjin [86]

The interpretation of -10c/60 seconds is that the metal loses 10 degrees Celsius every 60 seconds

<h3>How to interpret the expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

-10c/60 seconds

From the question, we understand that:

The temperature decreases by 10c every minute

When converted to seconds, we have:

10c/60

Hence, the interpretation of -10c/60 seconds is that the metal loses 10 degrees Celsius every 60 seconds

Mandy told Bill that she has read 16 books this year and reads 2 books each month. Bill wants to catch up to Mandy. He tracks hi
Lostsunrise [7]
We need to write equation for both mandy and bill on how many books they read depending on how many months passed.

Mandy's equation:
16 + 2x

she starts with 16 read books and she reads 2 books each month which is in total 2*x where x is number of months

Bill's equation:
4x
because from table we can see he is reading 4 new books each month.

now we need to make those 2 equations equal to eachother and solve for x because we want to see after how many months both will read the same that is why we set them equal.

16 + 2x = 4x
16 = 2x
x = 8

That means that in december he will catch her (if i counted months correctly :) )
