Basically you are multiplying each thing by 5
1 stage 1
5 stage 2
25 stage 3
125 stage 4
625 stage 5
3125 stage 6
15 dozen = 180 cookies
180 ÷ 24 = 7.5
7.5 x 2.5 = 18 3/4 cups of flour
Well it depends on how long after you wait the 8 minutes And there is no table to use if you can give me the table i will help you.
321-207 is actually equals to 114 but I mean the equation is false
This exponential growth/decay (in this case decay because r<1) of the form:
f=ir^t, f=final value, i=initial value, r=common ratio or "rate", t=time.
Since the population decreases by 4.5% each year the common ratio is:
r=(100-4.5)/100=0.955 so we can say
P(t)=8500(0.955^t)
....
7000=8500(0.955^t)
14/17=(955/1000)^t taking the natural log of both sides
ln(14/17)=t ln(955/1000)
t=ln(14/17)/ln(955/1000)
t≈4.22 years (to nearest hundredth of a year)
Since t is the years since 2010, the population will fall to 7000 in the year (2010+4.22=2014.22, more than four years will have elapsed) 2015.
