Answer:

1.4% is the maximum acceptable annual rate of​ growth such that the population must stay below 24 billion during the next 100​ years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The exponential growth model ​is given by:

A(t) = A_0e^{kt}

where k is the growth rate, t is time in years and A_0 is constant.

The world population is 5.9 billion in 2006.

Thus, t = 0 for 2006

A_0 = 5.9\text{ billions}

We have to find the maximum acceptable annual rate of​ growth such that the population must stay below 24 billion during the next 100​ years.

Putting these values in the growth model, we have,

24 = 5.9e^{100k}\\\\k = \dfrac{1}{100}\ln \bigg(\dfrac{24}{5.9}\bigg)\\\\k = 0.01403\\k = 0.01403\times 100\% = 1.4\%

1.4% is the maximum acceptable annual rate of​ growth such that the population must stay below 24 billion during the next 100​ years.

Using a table of values, determine the solution to the equation below to the nearest fourth of a unit. 2^x=1-3^x
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is,

2^x=1-3^x

To determine the solution of the equation we will substitute the values of 'x' given in the options,

Option (1)

For x = -0.75

2^{-0.75}=1-3^{-0.75}

0.59 = 1 - 0.44

0.59 = 0.56

Since, values on both the sides are approximately same.

Therefore, x = -0.75 will be the answer.

Option (2)

For x = -1.25

2^{-1.25}=1-3^{-1.25}

0.42 = 1 - 0.25

0.42 = 0.75

Which is not true.

Therefore, x = -1.25 is not the answer.

Option (3)

For x = 0.75

2^{0.75}=1-3^{0.75}

1.68 = 1 - 2.28

1.68 = -1.28

Which is not true.

Therefore, x = 0.75 is not the answer.

Option (4)

For x = 1.25

2^{1.25}=1-3^{1.25}

2.38 = 1 - 3.95

2.38 = -2.95

It's not true.

Therefore, x = 1.25 is not the answer.

Given ABC = DEF and the perimeter of DEF =38, find BC
ddd [48]

Answer: BC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are congruent, that means they are the same. So side AB = side EF. Since we know side FD is 15, that means side BC= 15
