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:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the population of a small town is 23,781 and has been continuously declining at a rate of 3.2% each year

Continuously declining is given hence we have the population P(t) as

P(t) = 23781 e^{-0.032t} where t represents the number of years from initial time.

To find approximate population of the town in 17 years substitute t =17 in the equation

P(17) = 23781e^{-0.032(17)} \\P(17) = 23781 e^{-0.544}\\=13803.79

i.e. approximate population of the town in 17 years = 13804

The sum of two integers is 33. The larger is 6 more than twice the smaller. Find the two
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

24 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x be equal to the larger integer.

Let y be equal to the smaller integer.

<u>1) Construct equations</u>

  1. x+y=33 (The sum of two integers is 33)
  2. x=6+2y (The larger is 6 more than twice the smaller)

<u>2) Solve for one of the integer</u>

Isolate x in the first equation

x+y=33\\x=33-y

Plug the first equation into the second

33-y=6+2y

Combine like terms

33-6=2y+y\\27=3y\\9=y

Therefore, the smaller integer is 9.

<u />

<u>3) Solve for the other integer</u>

x+y=33

Plug in y (9)

x+9=33\\x=33-9\\x=24

Therefore, the larger integer is 24.

I hope this helps!
