Same as the car one
A=Pe^(rt)
when it is a decay, make r negative
P=23781 and r=-0.032 and t=17
A=23781e^(-0.032*17)
A=23781e^(-0.554)
A=13803.01
so about 13803 people is the population after 17 years
Answer:
The sequence above is a geometric sequence
For an nth in a geometric sequence

where n is the number of terms
a is the first term
r is the common ratio
From the question
a = 45
r = 15 / 45
The explicit formula for the sequence is
U(n) = 45(1/3)^n-1
Hope this helps you
The answer to this problem is A 10
By looking at it, I can tell the second expression is greater due to a a large postive number that's being added to it. Let's solve.
-12+6=-6-4=-10
-34-3=-37+39=2
So, -34-3+39 is greater.
We want 10% = 0.1 = $10
Then to work out 100% we divide $10 by 0.1
$10/0.1 = $100
