Answer:
The population of the town in the year 1962 will be 1730.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of Smallville can be found by the equation
, where P(t) is the population at time t, r represents the rate of growth, and I is the initial population.
Now, if there are 225 residents in 1950 and the population of the town grows at a rate of 17% per year, then the population of the town in the year 1962 will be
(Approximate)
Input of 3.....output of -6.......(3 * -2 = -6)
input of -2....output of 4........(-2 * -2 = 4)
input of 0....output of 0.........(0 * -2 = 0)
function rule : multiply the input by -2
<u> 4 x² = 64</u>
Divide each side by 4 : x² = 16
Take the square root
of each side: x = √16
x = <em>+ 4</em>
and
x = <em>- 4</em> .
Answer:
B, A
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first equation, if an unknown number plus 17 equals 66, then what step would you take?
For example, if an unknown number plus 2 equaled 3, then you would know that number is 1, right? What steps did you take to get that? You subtracted 2 from both sides.
In this example, if x + 17 = 66, then subtracting 17 from both sides gets us x = 49.
The same applies for the second example. If x minus 54 equals 125, then you would add 54 to get x = 179.
