Answer:
y = 5 e^r * t
Let y be the population in billions and t the value of elapsed years
7 = 5 e^r * t is the equation being used where t = 15
7/5 = e^r * t
ln 7/5 = r * t taking ln of both sides
r = .336 / 15 = .0224
y = 5 e^(.0224 t) is then our equation
Check - suppose you want y at 2020
y = 5 e^(.0224 * 20) would be the equation
y = 5 e^.449 = 7.83 billion - seems to be a reasonable answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that an average is the sum of the scores divided by the number of scores that were added together. In this case we are going to be dealing with 4 tests. So let's say x is the score for our fourth test. We can create this equation:

So then we need to simplify the top:

Then multiply by 4 on both sides to get rid of the denominator:

Then solve for x:

So now we know that Sam needs to score a 67 on the fourth test to have an average score of 50.
