The population of a particular city is given by the function P(t) = 27,400(1.07)t, where t is the time in years and P(t) is the

population after t years. What is the current population, the percentage growth rate, and the population size (rounded to the nearest whole person) after 5 years? Hint: Percentage Growth Rate = r ⋅ 100 in A = A0(1 + r)t

Answer:

27,400 is the current population

7% is the rate of increase

The new size is:

  • 38,430 is the population if t is an exponent
  • 146,590 is t is NOT an exponent in the formula you typed

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in a future year, use the formula:

P(t) = 27,400(1.07)t

Substitute the value t=5 to find the population in 5 years.

P(t) = 27,400(1.07)t\\P(t) = 27,400(1.07)(5)\\P(t) = 146,590


Or if the equation is supposed to have t as an exponent then look below:

P(t) = 27,400(1.07)^t

Substitute the value t=5 to find the population in 5 years.

P(t) = 27,400(1.07)^t\\P(t) = 27,400(1.07)^(5)\\P(t) = 38,430

This formula is based off the standard formula A=A_0(1+r)^t so r, the rate is 1.07=1+0.07 so r is 7%.

A_0 is the starting population which is 27,400 here.

Which rational number equals 0 point 4 with bar over 4?
Ulleksa [173]
<h3>Answer:   4/9</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

x = 0.\overline{4}\\\\x = 0.4444\ldots\\\\10x = 4.4444\ldots\\\\10x-x = 4.4444\ldots-0.4444\ldots\\\\9x = 4\\\\x = \frac{4}{9}\\\\\frac{4}{9} = 0.\overline{4}= 0.4444\ldots\\\\

The idea is that when we subtract 10x and x, the infinite decimal pattern (the 4s that go on forever) will cancel. That leads to 9x = 4 which solves to x = 4/9

How to approximate to 3 significant figures
kondaur [170]

Answer:

We round a number to three significant figures in the same way that we would round to three decimal places. We count from the first non-zero digit for three digits. We then round the last digit. We fill in any remaining places to the right of the decimal point with zeros.
