P = L + L + w + w
72 = 2(L) + 2(L-4)
Distribute
72 = 2(L) + 2(L) - 8
Add like terms
72 = 4(L) - 8
Subtract 8 from both sides
64 = 4(L)
Divide both sides by 4
16 = L
The length is 16. Now substitute that in the equation for finding w.
w = L - 4
w =
9514 1404 393
Answer:
7.92 years
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find t such that ...
3 = 2^(t/5)
where 2^(t/5) is the annual multiplier when doubling time is 5 years.
Taking logs, we have ...
log(3) = (t/5)log(2)
t = 5·log(3)/log(2) ≈ 7.92 . . . years
It will take about 7.92 years for the population to triple.
