To calculate the population in 2016, we shall proceed as follows;
population growth follows an exponential growth formula given by:
f(t)=ae^(kt)
where:
f(t)=future population
a=initial population
k=constant of proportionality;
suppose in 2011, t=0 and in 2016, t=5; k=11.5%=0.115, a=4.8 million
thus the population in 2016 will be:
f(t)=4.8e^(0.115t)
thus;
f(5)=4e^(0.115*5)
=22.44
N/B the population is in millions
thus;
the population in 2016 will be:
22.44 million

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLYST IF CORRECT Explain how to use the orders of operation to simplify the following expression. [– 4
Gekata [30.6K]

First do the the parenthesis: (6-3) = 3

Now you have [-4 + 3 * 8] -10

Next do multiplication: 3 *8 = 24

Now you have [-4 + 24]-10

Now do what is in brackets: -4 + 24 = 20

Now you have 20-10

Subtract 20-10 = 10

Square ABCD was translated using the rule (x, y) → (x – 4, y + 15) to form A'B'C'D'. What are the coordinates of point D in the
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

D = (13, - 23 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the translation rule

(x, y ) → (x - 4, y + 15 )

To go in the reverse direction, that is image to original, then, reverse the operations in the translation rule.

(x , y ) → (x + 4, y - 15 ) , thus

D'(9, - 8 ) → D(9 + 4, - 8 - 15 ) → D(13, - 23 )

Answer:

  A) $157,555

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of assets is ...

  house + 2 cars = $280,000 +5,200 +15,600 = $300,800

The sum of liabilities is ...

  mortgage +car loan +credit card +wedding

  = $113,545 +9,200 +2,300 +18,200 = $143,245

The family's net worth is the difference between assets and liabilities:

  $300,800 -143,245 = $157,555

Which problem solving strategy would be best to solve this problem?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Use a formula

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Jim and Lillian have the dimensions of the wall they want to paint, therefore, in order to know how much paint they need to buy, they should proceed as follows;

1) Determine the quantity of paint required to paint a unit area of the wall, and record the quantity UA

2) Calculate the area, A, of the wall they want to paint, which is 15 ft. × 9 ft. = 135 ft.²

3) The amount of paint needed, AmP is therefore given by the following formula

AmP = A × AU = 135 × AU
