Log(2)/log(1.064) ≈ 11.17 . . . . hours

_____
The population can be given by
  p(n) = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . where n is the number of hours
You want to find n whe p(n) = 2*p₀.
  2p₀ = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . substitute the given information
  2 = 1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by p₀
  log(2) = n×log(1.064) . . . . . . . . take logs to make it a linear equation
  log(2)/log(1.064) = n . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of n

What is the sum 2, 3, 4, and 5?
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the sum of these numbers by adding them together.

The cumulative rule of addition lets us add numbers together in any order we want.

So, for 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 …

2 + 3 = 5

So now we have 5 + 4 + 5

5 + 4 = 9

Now we have 9 + 5

And 9 + 5 = 14

So, your answer is 14

Hope this helps!
