Complete question:

The growth of a city is described by the population function p(t) = P0e^kt where P0 is the initial population of the city, t is the time in years, and k is a constant. If the population of the city atis 19,000 and the population of the city atis 23,000, which is the nearest approximation to the population of the city at

Answer:

27,800

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to obtain the initial population(P0) and constant value (k)

Population function : p(t) = P0e^kt

At t = 0, population = 19,000

19,000 = P0e^(k*0)

19,000 = P0 * e^0

19000 = P0 * 1

19000 = P0

Hence, initial population = 19,000

At t = 3; population = 23,000

23,000 = 19000e^(k*3)

23000 = 19000 * e^3k

e^3k = 23000/ 19000

e^3k = 1.2105263

Take the ln

3k = ln(1.2105263)

k = 0.1910552 / 3

k = 0.0636850

At t = 6

p(t) = P0e^kt

p(6) = 19000 * e^(0.0636850 * 6)

P(6) = 19000 * e^0.3821104

P(6) = 19000 * 1.4653739

P(6) = 27842.104

27,800 ( nearest whole number)

A 17.2 gallon gasoline tank is 1/2 full. How many gallons will it take to fill the tank?
love history [14]

Answer:

8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the tank is filled halfway, and it can hold 17.2 gallons, so we can just divide to figure out how much is half the tank (the amount we need to fill it)

17.2 / 2 = 8.6

We can check our work by multiplying

8.6 x 2 = 17.2

So it would take 8.6gal to fill it up. I hope this helps :)
