x = population after 3 years
y = starting population
r = percentage
n = number of years
x = y *(1+r)^n
x = 8200 * (1 +0.03)^3
x = 8960.36
so about 8960 people in 3 years
Answer:
126.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 15.8 * 3 = 47.4 (This is the length)
2. Find half of the rectangle
47.4 + 15.8 (width) = 63.2
3. Find the whole perimeter
63.2 * 2 = 126.4
Answer:
1. f(0) = 501170
2. decreasing
3. 2% decrease
4. 302438
Step-by-step explanation:
In 1995 x=0
f(x) = 501170(0.98)^0
f(0) = 501170
The population is decreasing since we are multiplying by .98 ^x
.98 is less than 1 so it is getting smaller each time.
1 -.98 = .02
It is decreasing by 2 % each year
2020-1995 =25 years
f(25) = 501170(0.98)^25
=302438.41862
Rounding to the nearest whole number
302438
