I'm assuming your answers are listed as 1 through 4, not decimals.
You simply take 12 - 8 = 4, but ten min. less than that, so 3 hr, 50 min. then add 3 hr 45 min, totaling 7 hr 35 min. , which is closest to 7 and 1/2 hours, the second option.
Answer: 8.5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:
A = P (1 + r) t
Where:
p = original population
r = growing rate (decimal form) =18/100 = 0.18
t= years
A = population after t years
Replacing with the values given:
192,000 = 47,000 (1+ 0.18)^t
Solving for t:
192,000/47,000 = 1.18^t
4.08 =1.18^t
ln 4.08 = ln 1.18^t
ln 4.08 =t (ln 1.18)
ln 4.08 / ln 1.18 =t
8.5 years = t
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
I wanna say 10 or ether -10 since if it was subtracted from 2 then it would equal -8
1 is A - just plug and chug
2 is B - for 2 linear equations to have infinite solutions they mustbe the same
3 is C
4 is C - that is where they intersect
5 is A - same slope and different intercepts means no solutions
