D

area of a rectangle = length × width

area = (2x + 3)(x - 4) ( expand using FOIL )

= 2x² - 8x + 3x - 12 = 2x² - 5x - 12 → D

The population of a city grows exponentially at rate of 8% per year.Find the number of years it takes for the population to be d

Ilya [14]

Answer:

<em>It will take 9 years for the population to double</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Growth </u>

The natural growth of some magnitudes can be modeled by the equation:

$P=P_o(1+r)^t$

Where P is the actual amount of the magnitude, Po is its initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time.

The population of a city grows at a rate of r=8% = 0.08 per year. We are required to find when (t) the population will double, or P=2Po.

Substituting in the equation:

$2P_o=P_o(1+0.08)^t$

Simplifying:

$2=(1.08)^t$

Taking logarithms:

$\log 2=\log (1.08)^t$

Applying the exponent property of logs:

$\log 2=t\log (1.08)$

Solving for t:

$\displaystyle t=\frac{\log 2}{\log (1.08)}$

Calculating:

$t\approx 9$

It will take 9 years for the population to double

Vikki [24]

This is a combination in which you choose 4 from 10.
The formula is
combinations = 10! / 4! * (10-4)!
combinations = 10! / 4! * 6!
combinations = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6! / 4! * 6!
combinations = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 / 4 * 3 * 2
combinations = 10 * 3 * 7
combinations = 210
