Answer:
10 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c and s represent the populations of Canyon Falls and Swift Creek, respectively. For time t in years, the respective populations are ...
c = 22500 -740t
s = 15200 +1500t
We want to find t when s = 2c.
s = 2c
15200 +1500t = 2(22500 -740t)
2980t = 29800 . . . . . add 1480-15200, simplify
29800/2980 = t = 10 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
The population of Swift Creek will be double that of Canyon Falls in 10 years.
B because 17000 divided by 52 is $326.92
Answer:
199
Step-by-step explanation:
2004 is 24 years after 1980. The polynomial remainder theorem tells you the remainder from division by x-24 will be the function value c(24). We can find the remainder/function value by evaluating the function rewritten to Horner form:
c(x) = ((0.006x -0.48)x +12.8)x +85
c(24) = ((0.006(24) -0.48)(24) +12.8)(24) +85 = (-.336(24) +12.8)(24) +85
= 4.736(24) +85 = 198.664
c(24) ≈ 199
The approximate number of countries attending the 2004 Olympics was 199.
