Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

initial population, n0 = 18000

rate of growth, r = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

a) The function that models the population t years after 2013 would be

n(t) = 18000e0.06t

b)In 2018, the number of years, t = 2018 - 2013 = 5 years

The population would be

n(t) = 18000e0.06 × 5

n(t) = 18000e0.3

n(t) = 24297

c) n(t) = 24000

Therefore

24000 = 18000e0.06t

24000/18000 = e0.06t

1.33 = e0.06t

Take ln on both sides of the equation, it becomes

0.285 = 0.06t

t = 0.285/0.06

t = 4.75 years

The measure of the vertex angle of an isoceles triangle is one- fourth that of a base angle
horsena [70]

Answer:

Base angle = 72

Vertex angle = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of the base angle = x. But there are two of them. (Definition of isosceles).  Keep that in mind.

The vertex angle is 1/4 of one of the base angles. That means that the vertex is 1/4 x

All three angles = 180 degrees.

So we have x + x + x/4 = 180 degrees.

change 1/4x to 0.25x x since 1/4 = 0.25

Equation

x + x + 0.25 = 180

2.5x  = 180

Solution

2.5x = 180                      Divide by 2.5 on both sides

2.5x/2.5 = 180/2.5

x = 72

Answer

That means that each base angle = 72 degrees

The Vertex Angle = 72/4 = 18

I'm confused like in #1 the positive is five but what do I put for the negative
yuradex [85]

You found $5, so it's positive. You don't put anything in the negative, because you aren't losing anything.

If an angle is 16 degrees less than the measure of its complement. What’s the measure of the angle?
Margarita [4]

x-16+x=180

2x-16=180

2x=196

x=98 degrees

x-16= 82 degrees

Hope this helps!

One card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards find the probability of getting a red 10
Julli [10]
The probability of getting a red card is 1/2 and the probability of getting a 10 is 4/52. To find the probability of getting both a red card and a 10, multiply the two.

(1/2)(4/52) = 4/104
4/104 = 1/26

Therefore, the probability is 1/26
