3/2 of a number could be 3/2x. two less than is thus 3/2x-2. no more than means less than or up to or ≤. finally,

3/2x-2≤5 1/5
3/2x≤26/5+10/5
3/2x≤16/5
x≤16/5*2/3
x≤32/15. or x ≤ 2 2/15

in 2012, the population of a city was 63,000. by 2017, the population was reduced to approximately 54,100. identify any equation
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

<em></em>f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x<em></em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(0) = 63000 ---x = 0, in 2012

f(5) = 54100 -- x = 5, in 2017

Required

Select all possible equations

Because there is a reduction in the population, as time increases; the rate must be less than 1.

An exponential function is represented as:

f(x) = ab^x

Where

b = rate

rate > 1 in options (a) and (b) i.e. 1.03

This implies that (a) and (b) cannot be true

For option (c), we have:

f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 63000(0.97)^0 = 63000*1=63000\\

Set x = 5

f(5) = 63000(0.97)^5 = 63000*0.8587=54098.1 \approx 54100

<em>This is true because the calculated values of f(0) and f(5) correspond to the given values</em>

For option (d), we have:

f(x) = 52477(0.97)^x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 52477(0.97)^0 - 52477* 1 = 52477

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>

For option (e), we have:

f(x) = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{5x}

Set x = 0

f(0) = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{5*0} = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{0} =undefined

<em>This is false because the f(x) is not undefined at x = 0</em>

For option (f), we have:

f(x) = 52477(0.97)^{5x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 52477(0.97)^{5*0} = 52477(0.97)^0 =52477*1= 52477

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>

<em>From the computations above, only (c) </em>f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x<em> is true</em>

Which inverse operation would be used to verify the following equation? 102 ÷ 3 = 34
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
An inverse operations is the reverse of the equation. For example, since it's 102 ÷ 3 = 34, to get the inverse you would take the opposite sign of "÷" and make it "×," while changing the equal sign to make the statement true. The inverse operation used to verify this is 102 = 3 × 34

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP
goblinko [34]

Answer:

20.04 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows right triangle ABC. Use the definition of the cosine:

\cos \angle C=\dfrac{\text{Adjacent leg}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\ \\\cos \angle C=\dfrac{BC}{AC}\\ \\\cos 51^{\circ}=\dfrac{BC}{27}\\ \\BC=27\cdot \cos 51^{\circ}\\ \\BC\approx 20.04\ units
