Answer:

P(t) = P(0)e^{0.0693t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t.

This means that the population growth is modeled by the following differential equation:

\frac{dP(t)}{dt} = rP(t)

Which has the following solution:

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

In which P(t) is the population after t years, P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate.

The population has doubled in 10 years

This means that P(10) = 2P(0). We use this to find r.

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

2P(0) = P(0)e^{10r}

e^{10r} = 2

\ln{e^{10r}} = \ln{2}

10r = \ln{2}

r = \frac{\ln{2}}{10}

r = 0.0693

So the equation that will estimate the population of the community in t years is:

P(t) = P(0)e^{0.0693t}

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!! <br><br> What is (f/g)(x) ?
Rudiy27

Answer:   \bold{D.\ \dfrac{x+4}{x}\ where\ x \neq 0, \dfrac{2}{3}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 8

g(x) = 3x² - 2x


\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{3x^2+10x-8}{3x^2-2x}=\dfrac{(3x-2)(x+4)}{x(3x-2)}=\dfrac{x+4}{x}

Restriction on x: the denominator cannot be equal to zero. So,

    x(3x - 2) ≠ 0  

→  x ≠ 0     and     3x - 2 ≠ 0

                             3x       ≠ 2

                               x       \neq \dfrac{2}{3}
