If he wants to earn $1000, it means that $1000 must be 20% of his overall sales.

1000 = 20% * x
1000 = 20/100x
1000 = 0,2x         / ÷ 0,2 (both sides)
x = 5000

Answer: A salesman must sell products for $5000 to earn $1000.

A certain city's population is 120,000 and decreases 1.4% per year for 15 years.
mart [117]

Answer:

  • Decay Problem.
  • Decay rate,  r = 0.014
  • Initial Amount =120,000
  • P(t)=120000(0.986)^t
  • P(10)=104,220

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function for growth/decay is given as:

P(t)=P_0(1 \pm r)^t, where:\\P_0$ is the Initial Population\\r is the growth/decay rate\\t is time

In this problem:

The city's initial population is 120,000 and it decreases by 1.4% per year.

  • Since the population decreases, it is a Decay Problem.
  • Decay rate, r=1.4% =0.014
  • Initial Amount =120,000

Therefore, the function is:

P(t)=120000(1 - 0.014)^t\\P(t)=120000(0.986)^t

When t=10 years

P(10)=120000(0.986)^10\\=104219.8\\\approx 104220 $ (to the nearest whole number)
