x = population after 3 years

y = starting population

r = percentage

n = number of years

x = y *(1+r)^n

x = 8200 * (1 +0.03)^3

x = 8960.36

 so about 8960 people in 3 years

2. Maria is monitoring the temperature of
stiks02 [169]

Here, we are required to determine after how many minutes will the two substances be at the same temperature.

The equation of when the two substances will be at the same temperature and the solution are as follows;

(a) The equation is 96.2 + 1.5(x) = 98.5 + 0.8(x).

(b) The solution is, x = 3.285minutes.

For substance A which is currently at 96.2° and rising at 1.5° each minute; It's temperature after x minutes is given as;

  • T(a) = 96.2 + 1.5(x)

For substance B which is currently at 98.5° and rising at 0.8° each minute; It's temperature after x minutes is given as;

  • T(b) = 98.5 + 0.8(x)

(a) For the two substances to be at the same temperature; T(a) must be equal to T(b).

  • T(a) = T(b)

The equation is therefore;.

96.2 + 1.5(x) = 98.5 + 0.8(x)

(b) To determine the solution;

1.5x - 0.8x = 98.5 - 96.2

0.7x = 2.3

x = 2.3/0.7

x = 3.285minutes.

A county's population in 1991 was 147 million. In 1998 it was 153 million. Estimate the population in 2017 using the exponential
aliina [53]
Let t=number of years since 1991.
Then 
P(t)=147 e^(kt)   ... in millions
P(0)=147 e^(0)=147
P(7)=147 e^(7k)=153
e^(7k)=(153/147)
take ln both sides
ln(e^(7k))=ln(153/147)
7k=0.0400 => k=0.005715

Year 2017=>t=2017-1991=26
P(26)=147e^(26*.005715)=170.55
Answer: in 2017, the projected population is 170.55 millions.
