Answer: the population after 10 years is 12036

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^ t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 14000

r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015

t = 10 years

Therefore, the exponential decay equation to find the population of the town after 10 years is

A = 14000(1 - 0.015)^10

A = 14000(0.985)^10

A = 12036

Simplify: -3 1/2(-12 1/4)
pshichka [43]

Answer:

26 \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

First we turn them into improper fractions

-\frac{7}{2}(-\frac{45}{4})

then we multiply it

-\frac{7}{2}*-\frac{45}{4}=\frac{315}{12}=26\frac{1}{4}

The curved urface area of a cone i 140π cm2. What will be the radiu of a cone whoe lant height i 5 cm
VashaNatasha [74]

The radius of a cone with a curved surface area of 140π cm² and a slant height of 5 cm will be 28 cm.

<h3>What is curved surface area?</h3>

The region with just curved surfaces, leaving the circular top and base, is referred to as the curved surface area. Total Surface Area is the combined area of the bases and the curved surface. The measurement of a solid's curved surface area is its outer area, which excludes the top and bottom extensions. Surface area of the cylinder that is curved: A right circular cylinder is the solid that results when a rectangle circles around one side and makes a full revolution. The curved surface area of a cylinder (CSA) is also known as the lateral surface area and is defined as the area of the curved surface of any given cylinder having a base radius "r" and height "h".

Here,

Curved surface area of cone=πrl

=140π

l=5 cm

140π=πr*5

r=140/5

r=28 cm

The radius of cone that has 5 cm as slant height and 140π cm² as the curved surface area will be 28 cm.

&lt;1 and &lt;2 are supplementary. m&lt;1=4x and m&lt;2 =92 what is the value of x
monitta

Answer:

x=22

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary means that the two angles that are supplementary equal 180 degrees. 180-m<2=m<1

180-92=88 (m<2=92)

m<1=88

m<1=4x

4x=88

x=22
