Answer:

Proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

If the function is proportional, it will have the following relationship:

f(x) = kx

Let's look at the first one:

-14 = -7k

k = 2

Now let's see if k=2 is true for the rest:

0 = 2(0) True

10 = 2(5) True

16 = 2(8) True

f(x) = 2x. So this is indeed proportional.

dangina [55]

Answer: $107,836.69 or about $107,837 (to the nearest dollar)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to the accumulated amount received after investing principal amount (P) at rate of interest (r) compounded monthly for t months :

$A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{12})^{t}$

As per given , A = $130,000

r= 7.5% = 0.075

t= 30 months

Now,

$130000=P(1+\dfrac{0.075}{12})^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P(1+0.00625)^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P(1.00625)^{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 130000=P \times1.20552661036\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\dfrac{130000}{1.2055266}=107,836.69$

Hence he need to invest $107,836.69 .

The population of Algebraville is 500,000 and growing at 6.25%. How many people will live in Algebraville in 10 years? 20?

otez555 [7]

This would be exponential growth
A= 500,000(1+.0625)^10
=500,000(1.0625)^10
=500,000* 1.83353577126
the population after 10 years= 916,767
A=500,000(1+.0625)^20
=500,000(1.0625)^20
=500,000* 3.36185342451
the population after 20 years would be= 1,680,926
