Answer:

y = 32,000(1.08)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth equation is y = a(1 + r)^x, where a is the initial amount, r is rate as a decimal, and x is the time.

In this situation, 32,000 is the initial amount (a) and 0.08 is the rate (r)

If we plug these into the equation, we get the equation y = 32,000(1.08)^x

So, y = 32,000(1.08)^x is the correct answer.

A storage container consists of a box of length 90cm, width 42 cm and height 34 cm, and a lid
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

20079.05 cm^2,

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the box without the lid

=  90*42 + 2(90*34) + 2(42*34) = 12756.

Now find Surface area of the half cylinder:

The diameter of the 2 half circles = 42 so the radius = 21.

The area of the lid  

= 2 + 1/2 π (21)^2 + π r * 90

= 7323,052

Total = 20079.052
