Answer:

Option: B is correct.

( b.  761,307 )

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

The number of private investigators is expected to increase from 52,000 in 2006 to 61,000 in 2016.

i.e. the percentage increase is given by:

\dfrac{61000-52000}{52000}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{9000}{52000}\times 100\\\\=17.3\%

Now it is given that:

There are 648,982 police officers in 2006.

so the number of police officers in 2016 will be:

117.3\% \times 648982\\\\=\dfrac{117.3}{100}\times 648982\\\\=761255.886

Hence, number of  police officers  in 2016 to have a greater percent increase than that of private investigators is:

Option:b 761,307

(Since in all the other option the value is less than the estimated value i.e. 761255.886 )

Anyone can help me with my math homework please?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

so we know y in terms of t and x in terms of t and we need to find y in terms of x

x=21t^2\sqrt{x}=\sqrt{21}*t \ \ as \ \ t>=0 \ \ So\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{x}{21}}

and then

y=f(x)=3\sqrt{\dfrac{x}{21}}+5=\sqrt{\dfrac{9x}{21}}+5=\sqrt{\dfrac{3x}{7}}+5

hope this helps

Which is a true statement about an isosceles right triangle?
AnnyKZ [126]

Let l be the length of a leg. Using the pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse is

h = \sqrt{l^2+l^2}=\sqrt{2l^2}=l\sqrt{2}

So, the hypotenuse is \sqrt{2} times as long as either leg.

Find the magnitude of −1−5i
ladessa [460]

The magnitude of -1-5i is √26.

<h3>What is the magnitude of -1-5i ?</h3>

Given the complex expression; -1 - 5i

To find the magnitude, we use the formula;

| a+bi | = √[ a² + b² ]

  • a = -1
  • b = -5

| a+bi | = √[ a² + b² ]

| -1-5i | = √[ (-1)² + (-5)² ]

| -1-5i | = √[ 1 + 25 ]

| -1-5i | = √26

Therefore, the magnitude of -1-5i is √26.
