Answer:
Part 1. 0.9259 % per year
Part 2. P = 281.4e^(0.009 259t); 338.6 million
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
P₀ = 281.4 million
P = 308.7 million
Part 1. Growth rate
t = 2010 - 2000 = 10 yr
P = P₀e^(rt)
308.7 = 281.4e^(10r)
e^(10r) = 1.0970
10r = ln1.0970
r = (ln1.0970)/10 = (0.092 59)/10 = 0.009 259
r = 0.9259 % per year
The 10-year continuous growth rate is 0.9259 % per year.
Part 2. Population model
The population model is
P = 281.4e^(0.009 259t)
where P is in millions and t is the number of years since 2000.
By 2020,
P = 281.4e^(0.009 259 × 20) = 281.4e^0.1852 = 281.4 × 1.203
P = 338.6 million
The estimated population in 2020 is 338.6 million.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
16.) 2/3
You add up the fractions and then reduce.
(5/12 + 3/12 = 8/12 = 2/3)
17.) No because if you add all the fractions together, you only get 7/8. This means the project is not complete yet.
Answer:
See Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to show that the function:

Increases for all values of <em>x</em>.
A function is increasing whenever its derivative is positive.
So, find the derivative of our function:
![\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left[e^x - e^{-x}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20f%27%28x%29%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdx%7D%5Cleft%5Be%5Ex%20-%20e%5E%7B-x%7D%5Cright%5D)
Differentiate:

Simplify:

Since eˣ is always greater than zero and e⁻ˣ is also always greater than zero, f'(x) is always positive. Hence, the original function increases for all values of <em>x.</em>
Answer:
n=0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
10:4=5:2
to make 5 as 1, we will divide both 5 and 2 by 5

Answer:
20%=8
10%=?
by cross multiplications,
10×8=80
80÷20=4
Hence the answer is 4.
