There were 900 students enrolled in a high school in 2009 and 1,500 students enrolled in the same high school in 2012. The stude

nt enrollment of the high school, P, has increased at a constant rate each year, t, since 2009.
A) Write the given enrollment numbers as a pair of points in the form (t, P).
B) Find the slope of the line passing through the pair of points from part A and explain the information the slope gives about the situation.
C) Write an equation that relates the high school's student enrollment, P, to the number of years since 2009, t.
D) Predict the high school's enrollment in 2017.

Answer:

(A)

(t_0,P_0)=(0,900)

(t_1,P_1)=(3,1500)

(B)

m=200

(C)

P=200t+900

(D)

The high school's enrollment in 2017 is 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume time starts since 2009

so, In 2009 , t=0

P=900

In 2012,

t=2012-2009=3

P=1500

(A)

So, we have points as

(t_0,P_0)=(0,900)

(t_1,P_1)=(3,1500)

(B)

we can use slope formula

m=\frac{P_2-P_2}{t_2-t_1}

we can plug values

m=\frac{1500-900}{3-0}

m=200

we know that

slope is rate of change of P with respect to time

so, slope means increase in population is 200 per year

(C)

we can use point slope form of line

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m=200

(t_0,P_0)=(0,900)

P-900=200(t-0)

P=200t+900

(D)

In 2017 ,

t=2017-2009=8

we can plug t=8

and we get

P=200(8)+900

P=2500

The high school's enrollment in 2017 is 2500

Represent the following sentence as an algebraic expression, where "a number" is the letter x. You do not need to simplify.
My name is Ann [436]
<h3>Answer:  (2x)^3</h3>

Work Shown:

x = some unknown number

2x = twice the number

(2x)^3 = cubing the previous result

If you want to simplify this expression, then you would get 8x^3 since 2^3 = 8.

I need help with this question.
Papessa [141]

Answer:

It's A, c =2.5d

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to problems like this, I usually look through the answers and try to plug in the numbers until I get the right equation that fits with the graph.

2.5(5) = 12.5

2.5(10)= 25

2.5(15)= 37.5

2.5(20) = 50

2.5(25) = 62.5

If you compare this to the graph, you'll notice the solutions are the same as the Total Cost (c). That's because c= 2.5d is the right equation for this graph. (Sorry if my explanation is confusing)

Use a number line to show the sum of 6 + (–7).
mylen [45]
So there is a rule
(+)(+)=+
(-)(+)= -
(+)(-)= -
So now if you subtract 6 with 7 you will end up having -1 as you’re answer. Hope this helps
