Answer: y int: (0,9) x int: (3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

In slope intercept form, the equation is y=-3x+9. In the formula y=mx+b, we know b is the y intercept, so our y int. is 9. To find our x intercept, we set y=0. So, 0=-3x+9=>3x=9=>x=3

A city has a population of 230,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 8.5%. What will the population be afte

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

720,682.92

Step-by-step explanation:

8.5% = 0.085

P(t) = Initial Population * (1 + rate)t

P(t) = 230,000(1 + 0.085)t

P(t) = 230,000(1.085)t

P(14) = 230,000(1.085)14

P(14) = 720,682.82
