Given:
In 2010, the population of a town = 2000
Every year, it increase by 1.5%
To find the equation P(t) which represents the population of this town t years from 2010.
Formula
If a be the original population of a town and it increases by b% every year, after t year the population will be
Now,
Taking, a =2000, b = 1.5 we get,
or, 
Hence,
The population of this town t years from 2010 P(t) = 
, Option D.
Suppose that equation of parabola is
y =ax² + bx + c
Since parabola passes through the point (2,−15) then
−15 = 4a + 2b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (-5,-29), then
−29 = 25a − 5b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (−3,−5), then
−5 = 9a − 3b + c
Thus, we obtained following system:
4a + 2b + c = −15
25a − 5b + c = −29
9a − 3b + c = −5
Solving it we get that
a = −2, b = −4, c = 1
Thus, equation of parabola is
y = −2x²− 4x + 1

Rewriting in the form of
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)
i) -2x² - 4x + 1 = y
ii) -3x² - 7x = y - 11
(-3x² and -7x are isolated)
iii) -3x² - 7x - 49/36 = y - 1 - 49/36
(Adding -49/36 to both sides to get perfect square on LHS)
iv) -3(x² + 7/3x + 49/36) = y - 3
(Taking out -3 common from LHS)
v) -3(x + 7/6)² = y - 445/36
vi) (x + 7/6)² = -⅓(y - 445/36)
(Shifting -⅓ to RHS)
vii) (x + 1)² = 4(-1/12)(y - 445/36)
(Rewriting in the form of 4(-1/12) ; This is 4p)
So, after rewriting the equation would be -
(x + 7/6)² = 4(-⅛)(y - 445/36)

If 68 is a prime number, then the only factors it has are 1 and 68.
If it has any other factors besides 1 and 68, then it's NOT prime.
Right away, without any higher math, you can look at just the last digit
in 68 . The last digit is '8'. That tells you that '68' is an even number,
and THAT tells you that '2' must be one of its factors. So '68' is not a
prime number.
The factors of 68 are 1, 2, 4, 17, 34, and 68 .
68 has four more factors besides 1 and 68, so it's not a prime number.
