City planners anticipate an 8.2% population growth per year, including new residents and births. The population, in millions of

people, based on this increase can be modeled by the function p(x) = 2.5(1.082), where x is the number of years of tracked growth. The planners also estimate a 3% population loss over the same time period that can be modeled by the function L(p) = p(0.97).​

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is the third option,

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement we know the function that models the population growth over the years (p(x)) but we have been told that there is an estimated loss that can be modeled by the function L(p), so in order to find which function represents the final function, we need to composite the function, which is the same that evaluate p(x) into the function L(p).

We are given:

p(x)=2.5(1.082)^{x}

and

L(p(x))=p(0.97)

So, the evaluationg p(x) into L(p), we have:

L(p(x))=p(0.97)\\\\L(p(x))=2.5(1.082)^{x}*(0.97)=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x} \\\\L(p(x))=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x}=2.425(1.082)^{x}\\\\L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

Hence, the correct option is:

The third option,  

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

2 Which of the following polynomials is not written in standard form?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is written in the order of the exponent <em>on</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>variable</em> from highest to lowest.

#1 exponents go 2, 1 , then zero. So, this is standard form.

#2 exponents go 2 then zero, so this is standard form.

#3 exponents go 1 then 2 then zero, so this is <em><u>not</u></em> in standard form.

#4 exponents go 3 to 2 to 1, so this is still in standard form.

hope this helps!

How can I find list price, selling price, and the discount?
solong [7]

List price is the price which is showcased for users for the purpose of  customers to buy.

List price may be above or below the cost price of the item as per the need of the seller.

Selling price is the price at which an item is sold by the seller. Selling price can be different from list price as there may be discount from the list price.

Selling price above or below cost price is required to find profit or loss on the item.

Discount is the percent deduction on the list price or selling price which is offered to the customer to buy a particular item. Discount is usually less than selling price or list price as it is a depreciation from the actual value.

Disclaimer: No value has been provided for the calculation of the value and hence definition has been given.
