Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume 2010 to be year 0

The exponential function can be written as

P(t) = P_0 b^t, where t = no of years from 2010

Initial population P_0 = 8.938 million

In 2013, t=3

Hence P(3) = 8.938 (b)^3=10.480\\b^3 = 1.173\\b = \sqrt[3]{1.173} =1.0545

Hence P(t) = 8.938 (1.0548)^t

Using this when t =28 we get as

P(28) = 8.938(1.0545)^28\\=39.4793 million

Let the year represents x axis and consumption represents y axis.

Since 2010 is the initial year, x=0

and 2013 is third year , so x=3

Co-ordinates are (0,8.938)(3,10.480)

Exponential formula is y=ab^{x}

Putting the value of x in the above formula from 1st coordinate,

8.938=ab^{0}

As b^{0} = 1

this gives a= 8.938

Now using the 2nd coordinate

10.480=ab^{3}

putting the value of a in it we have

10.480=8.938b^{3}

taking cube roots on both sides we get

b= 1.05448

Now putting the values of a and b in the exponential formula-

y=8.938(1.05448)^{x}

In the year 2028, x=28

so,

y=8.938(1.05448)^{28}

y= 39.474

Hence oil consumption per day in 2028 will be 39.474 million barrels.

Answer:

<h2><u>[A] 0</u></h2>

Explanation:

  • <u>Lines of symmetry; A line that cuts a shape exactly in half</u>

If you were to put a line of symmetry down and fold the shape in half on that line, both halves would match exactly.

  • If you were to put a line of symmetry down on <u>this triangle</u> both sides <u>would not match</u>, therefore there are no lines of symmetry.
<h3><u>There are zero lines of symmetry, therefore your answer is [A] 0</u></h3>

To determine whether a cause-effect relationship exists between two variables, a researcher must use.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

To determine whether a cause-effect relationship exists between two variables, a researcher must use  an experimental approach.

<h3>What is cause-effect relationship?</h3>

A cause-and-effect relationship  is one which satisfies some conditions like:

  • two events occur at the same time and in the same place
  • one event immediately precedes the other

Therefore, To determine whether a cause-effect relationship exists between two variables, a researcher must use  an experimental approach.
