Plug the x value which is 2 back to the x and solve.
I gave you two answers because I wasn’t sure if the question was (x^2) - 2 or x^2-2.
Those two functions look similar but is totally different so keep that in mind.
Hope you have a victorious day!
E(1,-4) F(1,-6) G(-3,-5) H(-3,-3)
6.8
= 6 + 0.8
= 6 + 8/10 (simplifying...)
= 6 + (8 : 2)/(10 : 2)
= 6 + 4/5
= 6 4/5 <----- this is the answer.
I hope this helps. =)
This exponential growth/decay (in this case decay because r<1) of the form:
f=ir^t, f=final value, i=initial value, r=common ratio or "rate", t=time.
Since the population decreases by 4.5% each year the common ratio is:
r=(100-4.5)/100=0.955 so we can say
P(t)=8500(0.955^t)
....
7000=8500(0.955^t)
14/17=(955/1000)^t taking the natural log of both sides
ln(14/17)=t ln(955/1000)
t=ln(14/17)/ln(955/1000)
t≈4.22 years (to nearest hundredth of a year)
Since t is the years since 2010, the population will fall to 7000 in the year (2010+4.22=2014.22, more than four years will have elapsed) 2015.
