35g^2 +38g +8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
common ratio: 1.155
rate of growth: 15.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The model for exponential growth of population P looks like: 
where
is the population at time "t",
is the initial (starting) population
is the common ratio,
and
is the rate of growth
Therefore, in our case we can replace specific values in this expression (including population after 12 years, and initial population), and solve for the unknown common ratio and its related rate of growth:
![P(t)=P_i(1+r)^t\\13000=2300*(1+r)^{12}\\\frac{13000}{2300} = (1+r)^12\\\frac{130}{23} = (1+r)^{12}\\1+r=\sqrt[12]{\frac{130}{23} } =1.155273\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28t%29%3DP_i%281%2Br%29%5Et%5C%5C13000%3D2300%2A%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13000%7D%7B2300%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E12%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C1%2Br%3D%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%7D%20%3D1.155273%5C%5C)
This (1+r) is the common ratio, that we are asked to round to the nearest thousandth, so we use: 1.155
We are also asked to find the rate of increase (r), and to express it in percent form. Therefore we use the last equation shown above to solve for "r" and express tin percent form:

So, this number in percent form (and rounded to the nearest tenth as requested) is: 15.5 %
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
With the axis of symmetry, think of it as where you would slice this line in half, and both sides would look identical to each other. Since this is a quadratic function, this would be at where the vertex is.
The vertex is the part of the line where it "turns" around and starts going the other way. So vertex of this line is at (-1, 3).
Therefore, the axis of symmetry is at x = -1. This is since the function is pointing either up/down, and any value that is x = _ is a vertical line.
10% of $20 is $2 (take off the end 0)
$20+10%=?
$20+$2[this is 10%]=$22
The selling price is $22
