To calculate growth rate, start by subtracting the past value from the current value. Then, divide that number by the past value. Finally, multiply your answer by 100 to express it as a percentage.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The "population growth rate" is the rate at which the number of individuals in a population increases in a given time period, expressed as a fraction of the initial population. Population growth is based on four fundamental factors: birth rate, death rate, immigration, and emigration.

Annual Growth Rate of Population refers to the rate at which the number of individuals in a given popular increase over a year, expressed as a fraction of the initial popular of the previous years. The annual percentage growth rate of population is the percent growth divided by the number of years.

Pie

Answer:

1) y = 0.3x + 1000

2) slope = 0.3

The slope is the fraction of the monthly sales that is added to your salary.

3) y-intercept = 1000

The y-intercept is the fixed part of the salary, $1000.

4) The salary is $2500

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

monthly salary = fixed part + variable part

The fixed part is $1000. Every month you receive $1000 no matter the amount of sales.

The variable part varies according to the amount of sales. You get 30% of the of the monthly sales. Let the monthly sales be x. The variable part is 0.3x

Let the monthly salary = y.

y = 1000 + 0.3x

y = 0.3x + 1000

2)

slope = 0.3

The slope is the fraction of the monthly sales that is added to your salary.

3)

y-intercept = 1000

The y-intercept is the fixed part of the salary, $1000.

4)

In this case, x = 5000

y = 0.3x + 1000

y = 0.3(5000) + 1000

y = 1500 + 1000

y = 2500

The salary is $2500.

Math question for 30 points please answer correctly

Answer:

D. The rate of change for function B is greater than the rate of change for function A

Step-by-step explanation:

Function a has a slope (aka rate of change) of 3/3

I know this because we start at (-3, 0) then finish at (0, 3)

We added 3 to both the x value and the y value.

3/3 = 1, so we have a rate of change of 1 for function A

Now that we know this, we can write the equation out into slope intercept form.

We can get y = x + 3

The equation for function B is y = 5x + 5

The slope for function B is greater, therefore the rate of change for function B is greater than the rate of change for function A

I need help with #18,20,22 and 24. Please show your work and I'm really thankful for your help as soon as possible!
Artist 52 [7]
I'll start 18 and 22 for you, and you should then be able to do the rest on your own!

For 18, what we literally do is apply the distance formula for all the points and add them up. For B to C, we get the distance between them to be
sqrt((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)=sqrt((0-4)^2+(3-(-1))^2)=sqrt((-4)^2+4^2)=sqrt(16+16)=sqrt(32). Repeat the process for C to E, E and F, and F to B then add the results up to get your answer!

For 22, since the area of a rectangle is length*width (we know given the right angles and that the opposite sides are equal in how long they are), we can multiply 2 perpendicular lines, for example, BC and CE to get sqrt(32)*sqrt(8)=16 as the area
