After years of maintaining a steady population of 32,000, the population of a town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year an

d an increase of 8% per year, the population is 34,560. Which equation can be used to predict, y, the number of people living in the town after x years? (Round population values to the nearest whole number.) y = 32,000(1.08)x y = 32,000(0.08)x y = 34,560(1.08)x y = 34,560(0.08)x

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.

Explanation:

So you want to start by finding the area of the big square.

We know the width to the big square is 60cm. The length to the big square is

Now let’s find the little square inside the bigger square. We see from the picture that the width is 34 and the length is 24cm. Using the same formula, we can find the area of the little square.

The area enclosed is the area of the big square minus the area of the little square.
