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

Mai and Priya were on scooters. Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds. Priya travels 22 meters in 10 seconds. Who was moving faste
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Mai was moving faster.

As, she covered a greater distance in the same amount of time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds and Priya travels 22 meters in 10 second.

Calculate the speed of both;

Speed defined as the rate at which an object covers distance.

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Mai traveled 15 meters in 6 seconds

then;

Speed = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5 m/s

Priya travels 22 meters in 10 second.

then;

Speed = \frac{22}{10} = 2.2 m/s

Reason: Mai traveled faster because she covered a greater distance in the same amount of time.

Matt is cutting quilt squares measuring 3 inches on each side. He wants to use them to make a rectangular wall hanging measuring
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Matt will need 10176  square quilts to cover the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this perfectly, we will have to first convert everything to the same unit.

dimensions of the quilt squares = 3 inches

Length of the wall = 1 yard = 36 inches

Breadth of the wall = 212 feet = 2544 inches.

The next step, is to find the area of the wall that Matt is covering.

Area of wall = length X breadth = 36 X 2544 = 91584in ^{2}

We will also find the area of the square quilts. This is given as length X length = 3^{2}=9 in^{2}

to get the number of square quilts that will cover that area, we will have to divide the area of the wall by the area of the quilts

= 91584 /9 = 10176 quilts

Matt will need 10176 quilts to cover the wall

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical<br> form.<br> 8<br> 17
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that its a right triangle and 8 and \sqrt{17} are not the hypotenuse.

the equation for this is a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2} with c being the hypotenuse.

8^{2}+\sqrt{17} ^{2}=c^{2}

64+17=c^{2}

81=c

\sqrt{81}=c

9=c
