Answer:

Over 10 years, increasing 15% each year, the prices would have increased 305%.

Step-by-step explanation:

If journal prices had a constant rate of increase, it's prices could be modeled by the following equation:

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which P(t) is the price after t years, P(0) is the initial price and r is the rate of increase.

If it increased 15% each year.

We would have r = 0.15. So

P(t) = P(0)(1.15)^{t}

Over 10 years

P(10) = P(0)(1.15)^{10}

P(t) = 4.05P(0)

The initial price is 100%

4.05P(0) - P(0) = 3.05P(0)

Over 10 years, increasing 15% each year, the prices would have increased 305%.

Alika [10]

Answer:

The distance between them is 230.65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use the Cosine formula

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc\ cos\ A\\\\a^2 = 200^2 + 300^2 - 2\times 200\times 300cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 40,000 + 90,000 - 120,000cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 130,000 - 120,000 \times 0.64\\\\= 130,000 - 76,800\\\\a^2= 53,200\\\\a = \sqrt{53,200} \\\\= 230.65\ miles\ per\ hour

Now the distance for one hour is

= 230.65 ÷ 1

= 230.65 miles

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

P(t) = 9800(1.06)^t

P(8) = 15620

Step-by-step explanation:

For growth the equation is

y = ab^x  where a is the initial value, b = 1 plus the growth percentage, and x is the number of years

P(t) = 9800 (1+.06) ^t

P(t) = 9800(1.06)^t

from 2000 to 2008 is 8 years

P(8) = 9800(1.06)^8

15619.71113040224768

We can only have whole foxes

P(8) = 15620
