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)

Use the quadratic formula to solve x^2+8x+9=0
Tju [1.3M]
None of your options, not via complete the square nor quadratic the formula.

Solve for x over the real numbers:
x^2 + 8 x + 9 = 0

x = (-8 ± sqrt(8^2 - 4×9))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(64 - 36))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(28))/2:
x = (-8 + sqrt(28))/2 or x = (-8 - sqrt(28))/2

sqrt(28) = sqrt(4×7) = sqrt(2^2×7) = 2sqrt(7):
x = (2 sqrt(7) - 8)/2 or x = (-2 sqrt(7) - 8)/2

Factor 2 from -8 + 2 sqrt(7) giving 2 (sqrt(7) - 4):
x = 1/22 (sqrt(7) - 4) or x = (-2 sqrt(7) - 8)/2

(2 (sqrt(7) - 4))/2 = sqrt(7) - 4:
x = sqrt(7) - 4 or x = (-2 sqrt(7) - 8)/2

Factor 2 from -8 - 2 sqrt(7) giving 2 (-sqrt(7) - 4):
x = sqrt(7) - 4 or x = 1/22 (-sqrt(7) - 4)

(2 (-sqrt(7) - 4))/2 = -sqrt(7) - 4:

Answer: x = sqrt(7) - 4 or x = -sqrt(7) - 4_____________________________________________________

Solve for x:
x^2 + 8 x + 9 = 0

Subtract 9 from both sides:
x^2 + 8 x = -9

Add 16 to both sides:
x^2 + 8 x + 16 = 7

Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 4)^2 = 7

Take the square root of both sides:
x + 4 = sqrt(7) or x + 4 = -sqrt(7)

Subtract 4 from both sides:
x = sqrt(7) - 4 or x + 4 = -sqrt(7)

Subtract 4 from both sides:
Answer:  x = sqrt(7) - 4 or x = -4 - sqrt(7)
