Answer:
12 months, so 1 year
Step-by-step explanation:
What are we trying to solve?
Answer:
year 2139
Step-by-step explanation:
The population will double when the factor e^(.005t) is 2.
e^(.005t) = 2
.005t = ln(2)
t = ln(2)/0.005 = 138.6
The population will be double its size at t=0 when t=138.6. That is the population will be about 5.2 million in the year 2139.
The slope of a linear line (or a linear equation) can be found by simply taking 2 values for x and y and then using the slope formula which is
or:

Example:
Let's say you're give this table:
x: 1, 2
y: 1, 2
Following the steps which I gave, you take 1 value for the y (preferably the larger one) which in this cause will be 2 and then another y from the table which would be 1
Do the same for x
Now plug the values taken in the slope formula and you get:


Therefore the slope is 1.
