A VW Bug is driving north on a straight two-lane road at a constant 38 mph and a Chevy Impala is driving south at 29 mph on the

same road heading toward the VW Bug (but in a different lane). What is the velocity of the VW Bug relative to the Chevy Impala?

Those two vehicles are chewing up a lot of ground. Do you drive? I know it's a stupid question. Every American drives, but I have to check. When you see a car coming towards you, does it look like it's going extremely slow, so that 9 could be the answer? Or does it look extremely fast so that 67 could be the answer? I think you should be looking at fast. I live in the country so when something comes towards me I take note of it. So you should be thinking the Impala sees the bug as going north and very fast..

B

Note. The 9 would come up when someone was passing you and they were going 9 mph faster than you were going. If you were going 50 mph and someone passed you at 59 mph. it would appear to you that they were only going 9 mph. Next time you encounter this on the road, see if you agree that that is the way it works.

The table gives estimates of the world population, in millions, from 1750 to 2000. year population year population 1750 790 1900
Tems11 [23]
The poopulation exponential model is given by

P(t)=P_0e^{kt}

Where, P(t) is the population after year t; Po is the initial population, t is the number of years from the starting year; k is the groth constant.

Given that the population in 1750 is 790 and the population in 1800 is 970, we obtain the population exponential equation as follows:

970=790e^{50k} \\  \\ \Rightarrow e^{50k}=1.228 \\  \\ \Rightarrow 50k=\ln{1.228}=0.2053 \\  \\ \Rightarrow k=0.0041

Thus, the exponential equation using the 1750 and the 1800 population values is P(t)=790e^{0.0041t}

The population of 1900 using the 1750 and the 1800 population values is given by

P(t)=790e^{0.041\times150} \\  \\ =790e^{0.6158}=790(1.8511) \\  \\ =1,462

The population of 1950 using the 1750 and the 1800 population values is given by

P(t)=790e^{0.041\times200} \\  \\ =790e^{0.821}=790(2.2729) \\  \\ =1,796

From the table, it can be seen that the actual figure is greater than the exponential model values.

Using the formula for interest:

F = P (1 + r/n)^t

Where:
F = future value
P = Principal value
r = interest rate per year
n = interest period
t = duration

Substituting the given values:
F = 200 (1 + 0.32/12)^1
F = 205.33

To obtain the interest, we subtract the principal value from the future value. This is shown below:

Interest = 205.33 - 200 = 5.33

Among the choices, the answer is A.
