Answer:

P(t) = 258( 1 + 6%)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the  population of caribou in a forest grows at a rate of 6% every year. If there are currently 258 caribou, the function representing the number of caribou in the forest in t years will be

P(t) = 258( 1 + 6%)^t

Since it is increasing, it will be 1 + 6%

Where P(t) is the function representing the population after t years.

258 is the current or initial population.

Caleb bought groceries and paid \$1.60$1.60dollar sign, 1, point, 60 in sales tax. The sales tax rate is 2.5\%2.5%2, point, 5, p
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Price of Caleb's groceries before tax = $64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of groceries before tax be =$ x

Sales tax charged = $1.60

Sales tax rate =2.5%

Sales tax charged in terms of x will be = 2.5% of the Original price of grocery =2.5\% of x = 0.025\times x=0.025x

So, we have,

0.025x=1.60

Dividing both sides by 0.025

\frac{0.025x}{0.025}=\frac{1.60}{0.025}

∴ x=64

∴ Price of Caleb's groceries before tax = $64

The population of a certain country is expected to double every 32 years. The population of this country was 4.2 million people
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

2.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Population in year 2000 (A) = 4.2 million

Expected population every 32 years = 2 *A

The growth rate per year =?

The population figure after 32 years = (2 * 4.2 million) = 8.4 million

Using the exponential growth formula :

P(t) = A × (1 + r)^t

(1 + r) = g = Total growth percent

A = Initial population

t = time

P(t) = 8.4 million

8,400,000 = 4,200,000 × g^32

g^32 = (8400000/4200000)

g^32 = 2

Taking the root of 32 on both sides

g = 1.02189714865

g = (1 + r)

1.02189714865 = 1 + r

r = 1.02189714865 - 1

r = 0.02189714865

.rate = 0.02189714865 * 100

= 2.18971486541%

= 2.2% ( nearest tenth)
