Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Precision is defined as the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.This is how much close are the series of measurements of a same object to each other.

For example : If we measure volume of water in flask which comes out to be 2 mL and again on measuring for the number of times we get same value of 2 mL. Hence, this measurement will said to be precise.

A scale measures weight to the nearest 0.5 lb.So, from the given options the measurement which is appropriate to the given precision scale is 140.5 lbs.

A social media website had 350,000 followers in 2010. The number y of followers
Zolol [24]

Answer:

a) y(t) = 350(1.02)^t

b) 394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation for an amount:

The exponential equation for an amount after t years has the following format:

y = y(0)(1+r)^t

In which y(0) is the initial value and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

A social media website had 350,000 followers in 2010. The number y of followers increases by 2% each year.

This means that: y(0) = 350, r = 0.02

a. Write an exponential growth function that represents the number of followers t years after 2010

In thousands:

y(t) = 350(1 + 0.02)^t

y(t) = 350(1.02)^t

b. How many people will be following the website in 2016?

2016 is 6 years after 2010, so this is y(6).

y(6) = 350(1.02)^6 = 394.2

Rounding to the nearest thousand:

394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016
