Answer:

The Population growth function is given by:

A(t) = A_0(1+r)^t

where

A_0 is the initial population.

r is the growth rate (in decimal)

t is the time in year.

As per the statement:

The population of Augusta, WI, had a population of 1253 in 2000.

In 2000

⇒A_0 =1253

It is also given that the population increased by 3% each year

⇒r = 3% = 0.03

then;

A(t) =1253(1+0.03)^t              .....[1]

We have to find the population of Augusta in 2016.

⇒t = 16 years

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

A(t) =1253(1+0.03)^{16}

⇒A(t) =1253(1.03)^{16}

⇒A(t) =1253 \cdot 1.60470644

Simplify:

A(t) = 2,010.69717

Therefore, the population of Augusta in 2016 is, 2,010.7

Solve. 2(2z + 5) = 50​
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

z = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 2 to the terms in the parentheses:

2(2z + 5) = 50​

4z + 10 = 50

Subtract 10 from both sides

4z = 40

Divide each side by 4

z = 10

So, the answer is z = 10

sp2606 [1]

Answer: A. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.

Step-by-step explanation: Statistic are used to describe values obtained from a data sample which are regarded as a subset of the data belonging to an entire population. Therefore, in statistical parlance, numerical measurement obtained from such dataset are called statistic. On the other hand, if data from which a numerical derivation was made is a population which consists of the entire set of observations belonging to a particular group of interest, then the numerical values obtained are referred to as a parameter.

Varvara68 [4.7K]
We know that
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
c=²=a²+b²
where c is the diagonal of the wall
a=12 ft
b=6 ft
c²=12²+6²-----> c²=144+36-----< c²=180-----> c=√180------> c=6√5 ft

the answer is
<span>the exact length of the brace is 6</span>√5 ft
