Answer:

The farmer should expect to LOSE 10 pounds of soybeans per acre per year

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-x^2 + 20x + 100

just find how many soybeans his land will yield (per acre) after 10 and 20 years:

After 10: 200 pounds of soybeans/acre

After 20: 100 pounds of soybeans/acre

Because 10 years have passed and they lost 100 pounds of soybean production per acre, the farmer should expect to lose 10 pounds of soybeans per acre per year (-10 pounds of soybeans per acre/year)

viktelen [127]

Answer:

The population of this city in 13 years is 440,550.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Suppose a city with population 300, 000 has been growing at a rate of 3​% per year.

Now, to find the population of this city in 13 years.

Let the population of this city in 13 years be A.

Population (P) = 300,000.

Rate per year (r) = 3%.

Time (t) = 13 years.

Now, we put formula to get the population of the city in 13 years:

A=P(1+r)^t\\\\A=300,000(1+3\%)^{13}\\\\A=300,000(1+0.03)^{13}\\\\A=300,000(1.03)^{13}\\\\A=300,000\times 1.4685\\\\A=440,550.

Therefore, the population of this city in 13 years is 440,550.
