<span>Try simplifying the number to start. For example, if the population of the town is 100 people and the population growth is 2%, then there will 102 people in the town next year (Y=1). Continue adding 2% to the population for each of 10 years to get the answer for the 10th year. Growth would be considered 100% of current population plus 2% additional for a total of 102% - convert 102% to to a factor and you will have your formula Y=15,200*1.02;18,529</span>

Answer:

333 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is the sum of all the areas of the shape.

First, the area of the square in the center is simply 9x9 = 81.

The area of a triangle is (bh)/2, where b = base, and h = height

In the triangle, 9 is the base, and 14 is the height:

(9x14)/2 = 63

There are four triangles of the same area:

63 x 4 = 252

252 + 81 = 333

Find the sum: 2 + 9 + 16 + ... + 37
iris [78.8K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of arithmetic terms = n/2 × [2a + (n - 1)×d], where 'a' is the first term, 'd' is the common difference between two numbers, and 'n' is the number of terms.

this is the same as n/2 × (a1 + an), because

an = a1 + (n-1)×d

so, for the series above :

a or a1 = 2

d = 7, as every new term is the previous term plus 7.

for n

37 = a1 + (n-1)×d = 2 + (n-1)×7

and now solve for n

35 = 7n - 7

42 = 7n

n = 6

so, the sum of all terms is

6/2 × (2+37) = 3×39 = 117

G(t)=-3t^2+2t-5 and h(t)=4t+3
Serga [27]

Answer:

If this is the problem

g(t) = t2 - 3t and h(t) = 3t - 4

g[ h(t) ] = (3t-4)2 - 3 (3t-4)

g[ h(t) ] = 9t2 - 24t + 16 - 9t + 12

g[ h(t) ] = 9t2 - 33t + 28

14. Define a Variable
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: In mathematics, a variable is a symbol which functions as a placeholder for varying expression or quantities, and is often used to represent an arbitrary element of a set. In addition to numbers, variables are commonly used to represent vectors, matrices and functions

Step-by-step explanation:A symbol for a value we don't know yet. It is usually a letter like x or y.

Example: in x + 2 = 6, x is the variable.

Why "variable" when it may have just one value? In the case of x + 2 = 6 we can solve it to find that x = 4. But in something like y = x + 2 (a linear equation) x can have many values. In general it is much easier to always call it a variable even though in some cases it is a single value.
