An island population of 20,000, grows by 5% each year, compounded continuously. How many inhabitants will the island have in 5 y

ears according to the exponential growth function?

TEA [102]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of people living in the island is 20,000

P = 20,000

It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. So

n = 1

The rate at which the population was compounded is 5%. So

r = 5/100 = 0.05

It was compounded for 5 years. So

t = 1

the exponential growth function is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total population in the island at the end of t years. Therefore

A = 20000 (1+0.05/1)^1×5

A = 20000×1.2762815625

A = 25525.63125

The number of inhabitants that the island will have after 5 years is approximately 25526 people

Answer:

25680

Step-by-step explanation:

A=Pe^rt

A=20000e^((0.05)(5))

A=20000e^(.25)

A=25680.508

Find the value of k for x^2 - 2kx+7k -12=0 so that they have two equal roots
Alisiya [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 -2kx +7k -12 = 0

two equal roots -->Δ = b^2 -4ac = 4k^2 - 4(7k-12)=0 = 4(k^2 - 7k +12)=4(k-4)(k-3)=0

so k =3 and k =4

In a class of students, the following data table summarizes
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have t as a total amount of the whole class.

f= did not pass and you place the total number next to it like this;  f/t represents that group. You continue this in your workings.

f/t = probability failed.

p/t = probability passed

c/t = probability completed

dc/t = probability did not complete

and draw a tree.

The random would be either of these, we know there s a possibility of 1/4 but the odds stay central. We look for a new way after this data is converted as a  fraction and show these fractions as your answer.

The curved surface area of a cylinder is one third of its total surface area and the height is 5
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Diameter of cylinder = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of cylinder = 5 cm

Total surface area of cylinder = 3 x [Curved surface area of a cylinder]

Find:

Diameter of cylinder

Computation:

Total surface area of cylinder = 3 x [Curved surface area of a cylinder]

πr²h = 3[2πrh]

πr²h = 6πrh

Radius of cylinder = 6 cm

Diameter of cylinder = 2 x Radius of cylinder

Diameter of cylinder = 2 x 6

Diameter of cylinder = 12 cm
