At the end of the Year 1 the population will be = 110,000 + 4% of 110,000 =P1At the end of the Year 2 the population will be=P1+ 4% of P1= 110,000 + 4% of 110,000 + 4% of (110,000 + 4% of 110,000) =  110,000 +  4% of (110,000+ 110,000 + 4% of 110,000) =  110,000 + 2*4% of 110,000 + (4%)2  of 110,000= P2At the end of the Year 3 the population will be= P2+ 4% of P2= 110,000 +2* 4% of 110,000 + (4%)2 of 110,000 + 4% of [ 110,000 +2* 4% of 110,000 + (4%)2 of 110,000] = 110,000 +2* 4% of 110,000 + (4%)2 of 110,000 + 4% of 110,000 + 2* (4%)2 of 110,000 + (4%)3 of 110,000 =110,000 +3* 4% of 110,000 +3* (4%)2 of 110,000 + (4%)3 of 110,000 =P3At the end of the Year 4 the population will be= P3+ 4% of P3=110,000 +3* 4% of 110,000 +3* (4%)2 of 110,000 + (4%)3 of 110,000 +4% of [110,000 +3* 4% of 110,000 +3* (4%)2 of 110,000 + (4%)3 of 110,000] =110,000 +4* 4% of 110,000 + 6*(4%)2 of 110,000+4* (4%)3 of 110,000+ (4%)4 of 110,000 Now if we substitute n for 110,000 and r for 4% yearly rate of increase, we can rewrite,Before Year 1, at Year 0, the population, P0= n = n(1+r)0At the end of the Year 1 the population , P1= n+rn= x(1+r)1At the end of the Year 2 the population , P2= n+2rn+r2n =n(1+2r+r2)=n(1+r)2At the end of the Year 3 the population , P3= n+3rn+2r2n+r3n=n(1+3r+3r2+r3)=x(1+r)3At the end of the Year 4 the population , P4= n+4rn+6r2n+4r3n+r4n=n(1+r)4.

At the end of the Year n the population , Px=n+nrx+(x-1)r2n+(x-2)r3n+...........+(x-x+2)r(x-1)x+(x-x+1)rxn=n(1+r)x.....At the end of the Year 16 the population , P16= n+16rn+15r2n+14r3n+.............+3r14n+2r15n+r16n=n(1+r)16 Thus under given condition of rate of growth, the Population P(x) at xth year will be P(x)=n(1+r)x Therefore, a population of 110,000 growing at 4% per year, in 16 years will be= 110,000(1+4/100)16= 110,000(1.04)16=206027.93702999115428132473599427≈206028

I hope this is helpful. I found the solution on the internet. Hope you have a good day and bye.

Select the correct answer. During the summer, Jody earns $10 per hour babysitting and $15 per hour doing yardwork. This week she
omeli [17]

Answer:

  A.  x + y = 34; 10x + 15y = 410

Step-by-step explanation:

Jody's total hours will be the sum of the hours spent on each job:

  x + y = 34 . . . . . total hours

Jody's total earnings will be the sum of the earnings from each job:

  10x +15y = 410 . . . total earnings

So, the system of equations is ...

  • x + y = 34
  • 10x + 15y = 410

-k+3k combine like terms to create an equivalent expression​
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

2k

Step-by-step explanation:

3k and -k are both like terms, so you can combine them. Adding opposite signs works in the same way as subtraction, so you can rewrite the expression as 3k-k, which is 2k.

Can someone help me PLEASE I've been trying to get someone to help me for hours Come on I'm offering 20 points?!?!?!?​
Tom [10]

AND means multiply, so if probability is dependent on two things happening, then we will multiply the individual probabilities together.

1. P(A and 1) = 1/4 x 1/6 = 1/24

2. P(C and 2) = 1/4 x 2/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

3. P(B and 3) = 2/4 x 1/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

4. P(A and 4) = 1/4 x 2/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

5. P(C and 3) = 1/4 x 1/6 = 1/24

6. P(B and 2) = 2/4 x 2/6 = 4/24 = 1/6

7. P(a consonant and an odd #) = 3/4 x 2/6 = 6/24 = 1/4

8. P(a consonant and a prime #) = 3/4 x 3/6 = 9/24 = 3/8

9. P(a vowel and a 5) = 1/4 x 0/6 = 0

10. P(a vowel and a number less than 3) = 1/4 x 3/6 = 3/24 = 1/8

11. P(B and 1) = 2/4 x 1/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

Experimental probability is based on something that has already happened, or data that has already been collected.

12. P(1) = 3/30 = 1/10

13. P(2) = 8/30 = 4/15

14. P(3) = 7/30

15. P(4) = 5/30 = 1/6

16. P(5) = 3/30 = 1/10

17. P(6) = 4/30 = 2/15

Hope this helps!

Identify what type of polygon this is
DaniilM [7]

1. This is a nonagon. A nonagon is a 9-sided polygon; the figure has 9 sides.


2. This is not a regular polygon. A regular polygon is equiangular and equilateral which means that all of the angles are equal in measure and all of the sides are equal in length. The figure shown does not have equal sides or angles; therefore, it is an irregular polygon.
