Answer:

5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every year the population increases by a factor 103.5% or  1.035.

The equation relating population and time in years is:

P = 6000(1.035)^t  (This is an example of  exponential growth)

So we have:

7100 = 6000(1.035)^t

(1.035)^t = 7100/6000

(1.035)^t = 1.1833

t ln 1.035 = ln 1.1833

t = ln 1.1833/ln 1.035

= 4.89.

Is this right
pychu [463]

Answer:

360 = x+123+ 90

x = 147

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles form a circle which is 360 degrees

360 = x+123+ 90

Subtract 123 and 90 from each side

360 -123 - 90 = x

147 = x

Answer: 3424.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data : 378, 361, 350, 375, 200, 391, 375, 368,  321

Number of data values = 9

Mean :\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum^n_{i=1} x_i}{n}

\\\\=\dfrac{378+361+350+375+200+391+375+368+321}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{3119}{9}\approx346.56

Variance = \dfrac{\sum^n_{i=1} (x_i-\overline{x})^2}{n-1}

\sum^n_{i=1} (x_i-\overline{x})^2 = (31.44)^2+(14.44)^2+(3.44)^2+(28.44)^2+(-146.56)^2+(44.44)^2+(28.44)^2+(21.44)^2+(-25.56)^2\\\\=27394.2224

Variance = \dfrac{27394.2224}{8}=3424.2775\approx3424.28
