Answer:

P(t) = 25,000*1.12^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The populational growth is exponential with a factor of 1.12 each year. An exponential function has the following general equation:

y(x) = ab^x

Where 'a' is the initial population (25,000 people), 'b' is the growth factor (1.12 per year), 'x' is the time elapsed, in years, and 'y(x)' is the population after 'x' years.

Therefore, the function P(t) that models the population in Madison t years from now is:

P(t) = 25,000*1.12^t

Answer:

P(t)=25000(1.12)^{t}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The town has a population of 25000.
  • The population is increasing by a factor of 1.12 each year.

This is a geometric progression since it increases by a factor.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by the function:

U_n=ar^{n-1}, $ where a=first term, r=common factor

Since, we the growth starts from the second year, the function that gives the population P(t) in Madison t years from now therefore is:

P(t)=25000(1.12)^{t}

Complete this conversion. given: 10 mm = 1 cm given: 100 cm = 1 m find: 7.5 m = ___ mm
krek1111 [17]
We have that
10 mm is equal to -------> 1 cm----> multiply by 100
10*100 mm is equal to -------> 1*100 cm
1000 mm is equal to -------> 100 cm
and
we know that
100 cm is equal to-------> 1 m
therefore
1000 mm is equal to -------> 100 cm
100 cm is equal to-------> 1 m

1000 mm is equal to--------> 1 m
  X mm-----------------> 7.5 m
x-7.5*1000-----> x=7500 mm

the answer is
7500 mm
