The percent increase of the second year was 85.71%
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth formula is y=a(1+r)^x
where;
y=population after x years
a=original population
r=growth rate as a decimal
x=number of time interval that have passed
Let starting population be p
The first year increase in the population was 40% this means;
r=0.4 , x=1 and a=p thus the equation will be
y=p(1+0.4)^1 ⇒⇒y=1.4 p
In the second year the population of birds of an island became 7 times more than before which is 7p
7p= 7*1.4p= 9.8p
Increase will be;
9.8p-1.4p=8.4
% increase will be;
8.4/9.8 *100 =85.71%

P(x) = x^2 - 1
q(x) = 5(x - 1)
(p - q)(x) = p(x) - q(x) = (x^2 - 1) - 5(x - 1)
You forgot to provide the slope but here is how you do this
the slope 5 = (y2 - y) / (x2 - x) but we know that (x2, y2) = (-10, -5)
=> (-5 - y) / (-10 - x) = 5 --- multiply both sides by (-10 - x)
=> (-5 - y) = 5 (-10 - x)
=> (-5 - y) = -50 - (5)x --- add +5 to both sides
=> -y = (-50 + 5) - (5)x --- multiply both sides -1
=> y = 5x + 45 --- this will be your equation.
Question
Tickets for a game Cost $2 for students and $5 for adults. The number of students was 3 less than 10 times the number of adults. The total amount of money from ticket sales was $619. How many of each tickets were sold?
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
these are 2 similar triangles.
that means they have the same angles. and all sides have the same scaling factor between the 2 triangles.
so,
10/28 = 5/h
