Answer:
197.2 million
Step-by-step explanation:
The appropriate exponential equation for the population is ...
p(t) = 172.0e^(0.019t)
Then we can compute for t=7.2:
p(7.2) = 172.0e^(0.019·7.2) ≈ 172.0·1.146599 ≈ 197.2
7.2 minutes from now, the population will be about 197.2 million.
___
For continuous growth (or continuous compounding), the exponential formula is ...
f(t) = (value at t=0)×e^(rt)
where r is the growth rate in one unit of time, and t is the number of time periods.
Answer:
A) 48 in : initial height of the water
B) 40.5 in : height of the water after 5 days
C) 32 days
D) Yes, should be restricted.
Domain: 0 ≤ d ≤ 32
Step-by-step explanation:

A)

48 in is the initial height of the water
B)

40.5 in is the height of the water after 5 days
C) when the pool is empty, h = 0.
So set the equation to zero and solve for d.

D) Yes, the domain should be restricted because when d > 32, h < 0 and the height of the water in the pool cannot be negative
Domain: 0 ≤ d ≤ 32

It's a slope-intercept form where a slope = -1.5 and y-intercept = 3.
x - intercept: y = 0
Therefore we have the equation:
-1.5x + 3 = 0 |-3
-1.5x = -3 |:(-1.5)
x = 2
Answer: x-intercept = 2, y-intercept = 3
2 numbers can be represented by the variables x and y.
Set up a system of equations:


The two numbers added together will result in a sum of 33. However, one number subtracted from another will result in a difference of 1.
In both systems of equations, there are inverses of variable y. Therefore, we can combine the systems of equations by adding them together:


Divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself:

One of the numbers will be 17.
Plug the value into one of the equations:

Add y to both sides:

Subtract both sides by 1 to get y by itself:

The two numbers that sum up to 33, with a difference of 1 between them, will be 16 and 17.
