Answer:

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial Population (Year 2010) = 250,000

Rate of Growth = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

We want the population of the town in Year 2020 (at this rate). That is 10 years from now.

The formula for compound growth is:

F=P(1+r)^t

Where

F is the future value (in year 2020)

P is the present value (250,000)

r is the rate of increase per year (0.03)

t is the time in years (t = 10)

Lets substitute and find the value:

F=P(1+r)^t\\F=250,000(1+0.03)^{10}\\F=250,000(1.03)^{10}\\F=335979.09

Rounded, that would be:

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit can be converted into degrees Celsius using the formula C=5(F-32)/9
aksik [14]

Answer:

F= (9C+160)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

C=5(F-32)/9

make F the subject of the formula= isolate F

5(F-32)=9C

5F-160=9C

5F=9C+160

F= (9C+160)/5

check: a, b, c are all positive integers (a=9, b=160, c=5)

What is the range of the following function: f(x)=-x^2+x^-1 if the domain is {-2, -1, 1}
postnew [5]

f(x)= -x^2 + x^-1

f(-2)= - (-2)^2 + (-2)^-1 = -4 - 1/2 = -9/2

f(-1)= - (-1)^2 + (-1)^-1 = -1 -1    =   -2

f(1) = - (1)^2 + (1)^-1 = -1 +1 = 0

The range is { -9/2, -2, 0}

Is 3/5 greater than 1/5
polet [3.4K]
Yes it is, since 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 3/5. If a pizza has 5 slices and you take three, that is more than just taking one.
