The population of a town has approximately doubled every 17 years since 1950.
the equation P=
where Po is the population of the town in 1950, is used to model the population, P, of the town t years after 1950.
When t=17 yrs
P=2
for 1 year
The equation becomes
P = 
-------------(1)
Our original equation is
----------------------------------(2)
equating expression 1 and 2
Cancelling 
from both sides we get
t/17=k
⇒k=t/17 is the solution.
Answer:
Radius of the sphere is 5m.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the volume of sphere 
we have to find the radius of the sphere
On substituting the given value of volume of sphere we get
After simplification we get:
Hence, the radius of sphere is 5m
Answer:
0.399
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to doing this problem properly lies in knowing and following order of operations rules.
Here we must perform mult. and div. before addition and subtr., but even before that we must do all work enclosed in parentheses first.
(22.8 × 10–3) is evaluated by doing the mult. first, and then subtracting 3:
(228-3) = 225
and
(5.7 × 10–6) is evaluated by doing the mult. first, then subtracting 6:
(570-6) = 564.
Finally, we divide 225 by 564, obtaining 0.399 (after rounding off to three decimal places).
Answer:
x-8<-15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the library surveyed 240 people and only 15% chose documentaries, then only 36 people chose documentaries and the other 204 chose something else other than documentaries. You had to get 15% into decimal form and to do that you move the "." in 15.0% left 2 places so you get 0.15. Then you multiply 240 by 0.15 and you get 36.
