Answer:

length of rectangle=16 inches

width of rectangle=10.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

given ,perimeter of rectangle=53 inches

let ,length of rectangle= l=2b-5

  width of rectangle=b

p=2(l+b)

53=2(2b-5+b)

26.5=3b-5

31.5=3b

b=\frac{31.5}{3}

b=10.5 inches

l=21-5=16 inches

The population of a school and is increasing at a rate of 2%per year;6yearsPLEASE HElp <br> Thanks
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It can be modeled with the equation A=P(1.02)^6 but needs a starting population number to finish.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in a future year, use the formula:

A = P (1+/-r)^t

where A is the amount, p is the starting population, r is 2% or 0.02, and t is the number of years.

Since the population is increasing it is addition. Substitute r=0.02 and t=6. Without a starting population, we cannot find the population in 6 years.

A = P (1+r)^t\\A=P(1+0.02)^6\\A=P(1.02)^6
