A town has a population of 8000 and grows at 3% every year. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the popula

tion will reach 16300?

Answer:

It will take approximately 34 years

Step-by-step explanation:

If a town population is 8000 and grows 3% annually.

How long will it take to reach 16300

growth is 16300 - 8000 = 8300

using simple interest formula

SI = (P × r × t)/100

8300 = (8000 × 3 × t)100

8300= (80 × 3)t

8300 = 240t

t = 8300/240

t ≈ 34 years to the nearest tenth

Write the equation in slope-intercept form through the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line y = -(7/4)x + 4 and graph
Scilla [17]

You have to write the equation for a line that crosses the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line

y=-\frac{7}{4}x+4

When you have to determine a line that is perpendicular to a known line, you have to keep in mind that the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative inverse of the first one.

If for exampla you have two lines, the first one being:

y_1=mx+b

And the second one, that is perpedicular to the one above:

y_2=nx+c

The slope of the second one is the negative inverse of the first one:

n=-\frac{1}{m}

The slope of the given line y=-7/4+4 is m=-7/4

So the slope of the perpendicular line has to ve the inverse negative of -7/4

\begin{gathered} n=-(-\frac{4}{7}) \\ n=\frac{4}{7} \end{gathered}

Considering it has to pass through the point (-4,-7) and that we already determined its slope, you can unse the point slope formula to determine the equation of the perpendicular line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

replace with the coordinates of the point and the slope and calculate:

\begin{gathered} y-(-7)=\frac{4}{7}(x-(-4)) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}(x+4) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7} \end{gathered}

Subtract 7 to both sides of the equation to write it in slope-intercept form:

\begin{gathered} y+7-7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7}-7 \\ y=\frac{4}{7}x-\frac{33}{7} \end{gathered}

Now you can graph both lines

How many sixths are in 3 and 1 third ??
lorasvet [3.4K]
1 whole thing = 6 sixths
3 whole things = 18 sixths

1 third of a whole thing = 2 sixths of it

3 wholes plus 1 third = 18 sixths plus 2 sixths = 20 sixths

postnew [5]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation

g x negative Jay if you don't have a number in front of the G or J than the numbers going to be one so then you will multiply 1 by -1 which will equal negative one and then negative one minus three what to equal -4
