For the answer to the question above,
f(x) = k*b^x 

<span>k is the value of your thing (in this case number of people) after 0 iterations. b would be the rate that the thing grows, in this case by 17%. x is the number of iterations (towns) that have been expanded to, hence how many times 1.17 is compounded. So our equation would look like this: </span>

<span>f(x) = 8(1.17)^x </span>

<span>simply plug in the number of towns he has. So in this case 16. </span>

<span>f(16) = 8(1.17)^16 </span>

<span>do the math (simplify) </span>

<span>f(16) = 98.64... </span>

<span>you can't have 0.64 of a person so we round down because that guy hasn't been "created" yet. </span>

<span>after 16 villages 98 people</span>

78 is what percent of 110
irinina [24]

Answer: 70.909090909091%

Step-by-step explanation: Reading through the problem we have <em>78 is</em>, that's 78 equals, <em>what percent</em>, x/100, <em>of 110</em>, times 110.

It's important to understand that <em>percent</em> means over 100 so what percent would simply mean <em>x/100</em> or any variable but I will be using x.

So we have the equation 78 = \frac{x}{100} *110

So cross canceling the 110 and 100 to 11 and 10, we have 78 = \frac{11x}{10}

Multiply both sides by 10 to get rid

of the fraction and we have 780 = 11x.

Now divide both sides by 11 and 70.909090909091 = x.

So, 78 is 70.909090909091% of 110.

BC has endpoints B(-3,-5) and C(12,12). FInd the coordinates of the midpoint of BC
forsale [732]

Answer:

(9/2, 7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to remember how to do this problem is to average the x-coordinates and average the y-coordinates.

So, in your problem (-3 + 12)/2 = 9/2   and  (-5 + 12)/2 = 7/2

The midpoint is (9/2, 7/2)
