Answer:

The answer is "26179.4".

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume year 2000 as t, that is  t =0.

Formula:

A= A_0e^{rt}

Where,

A_0 = \ initial \ pop \\\\r= \ rate \ in \ decimal \\\\t= \ time \ in \ year

for doubling time,

r = \frac{log (2)}{t} \\

r = \frac{\log (2)}{ 40} \\\\r= \frac{0.301}{40}\\\\r= 0.007

Given value:

A = A_0e^{rt} \\\\

A_0 = 13000

t= 40 \ years

when year is 2000, t=0 so, year is 2100 year as t = 100.

A = 13000 \times e^{et}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{e \times t}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{0.007 \times 100}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{0.7}\\\\A= 13000\times 2.0138\\\\A = 26179.4

Solve for x. -1/2 (x+5)=2x -3/2
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Start from

-\dfrac{1}{2}(x+5)=2x -\dfrac{3}{2}

It may be useful to multiply the whole expression by 2, in order to get rid of denominators:

-(x+5)=4x -3

Distribute the negative sign in the left hand side:

-x-5=4x -3

Move all terms involving x to the left, and all constants to the right:

-x-4x=-3+5

Sum like terms:

-5x=2

DIvide both sides -5:

x = -\dfrac{2}{5}

The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 m. The width of the rectangle is 16 m. What is the area of the rectangle?
liq [111]

Answer:

320m

Step-by-step explanation

a rectangle has four sides, two pairs of identical sides. So two sides are 16. So that adds up to 32. Perimeter is all sides added together. so it has to add up to 72. 72 minus 32 is 40, so two of the sides have to be 40. Area is length times width, so 16 times 20, which is 320.

Are the equations sometimes, always, or never true?
AURORKA [14]
15 + 2x - 4 = 9x + 11 - 7x
2x + 11 = 2x + 11
always true

2x + 3(4x - 1) = 2(5x + 3) + 4x
2x + 12x - 3 = 10x + 6 + 4x
14x - 3 = 14x + 6
never true
