Answer:
x= 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x + 9
f(x) = 36
Set the 2 equations equal to each other;
2x + 9 = 36
Subtract 9 from both sides;
2x = 27
Divide both sides by 2;
x = 13.5
<em>Check:</em>
f(x) = 2x + 9
f(13.5) = 2(13.5) + 9= 27 + 9 = 36
Let t=number of years since 1991.
Then
P(t)=147 e^(kt) ... in millions
P(0)=147 e^(0)=147
P(7)=147 e^(7k)=153
e^(7k)=(153/147)
take ln both sides
ln(e^(7k))=ln(153/147)
7k=0.0400 => k=0.005715
Year 2017=>t=2017-1991=26
P(26)=147e^(26*.005715)=170.55
Answer: in 2017, the projected population is 170.55 millions.
Answer:
x=5.3
Step-by-step explanation:
.3(5x-1.5)=7.5
1.5x-.45=7.5
1.5x=7.95
x=5.3
