Officials project that between 2010 and 2050, the population of a certain city will drastically change. The model below gives th

e projection of the city's population , P, in thousands, with respect to time, t, in years, where 2010 corresponds to t = 0.P=175 + (11/2)tWhat does the 175 mean in the equationin 2010 the population of the city was 175 thousand
in 2050 the population of the city will be 175 thousand
Between 2010 and 2050, the population of the city will increase by 175 thousand
Between 2010 and 2050 the population of the city will decrease by 175 thousand

Answer:

In the year 2010, the population of the city was 175,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If we rewrote this as a linear expression in standard form (it is linear, btw), it would look like this:

P(t)=\frac{11}{2}t+175

The rate of change, the slope of this line, is 11/2.  If the year 2010 is our time zero (in other words, we start the clock at that year), then 0 time has gone by in the year 2010.  In the year 2011, t = 1 (one year goes by from 2010 to 2011); in the year 2012, t = 2 (two years have gone by from 2010 to 2012), etc.  If we plug in a 0 for t we get that y = 175,000.  That is our y-intercept, which also serves to give us the starting amount of something time-related when NO time has gone by.

You plant flowers in your garden and only 75% of them sprout how many can you predict to sprout if you plant 20 seeds?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Well basically by reading this question, I believe that if 75% sprout of the 20 seeds your equation would look like this 20(0.75) 0.75 is basically a simplified version of the 75% just written as a decimal so basically your answer would be 15 seeds ( so I believe you will be able to predict that 15 seeds will sprout! Let me know if this was either, helpful or non- helpful! I hope you have done a wonderful job!

Find the period of the graph
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

240 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph we can see that the first peak is at -30 degrees and the second peak is at 210 degrees.

210 - (-30) = 210 + 30 = 240

In APQR, find the measure of Z.P.
egoroff_w [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiple possibilities.

e.g.

we could use Pythagoras to get QR, and then use the law of sine to get angle P.

or we can use the law of sine to get angle R, and then use the rule that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180° to get angle P.

I propose the second option :

the law of sine :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

with a, b, c being the sides always opposite of their associated angles.

33.8/sin(R) = 57.6/sin(90) = 57.6

sin(R) = 33.8/57.6 = 0.586805555...

R = 35.93064691...°

180 = 90 + 35.93064691... + P

P = 54.06935309...°
