Answer:

Hsu makes $35,950.50 and Alkena makes $48,418.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations, where h is the amount Hsu makes and a is the amount Alkena makes:

a + h = 84,369

a = h + 12,468

Solve by substitution by plugging in h + 12,468 as a:

h + 12,468 + h =  84,369

2h + 12,468 = 84,369

2h = 71,901

h = 35,950.50

Plug this into the equation, a = h + 12,468 , to solve for a

a = 35,950.50 + 12,468

a = 48,418.50

So, Hsu makes $35,950.50 and Alkena makes $48,418.50

In 2007, the population of Ecuador was estimated at
swat32

Answer:

In 2012 , the population will be 15 million

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by setting up an exponential equation that defines the increase

P(t) = I(1 + r)^t

P(t) represents the present population = 15 million

I is the population in 2007 which is 13.8 million

r is 1.6% = 0.016

t is what we want to calculate

15 million = 13.8 million (1 + 0.016)^t

15/13.8 = (1.016)^t

1.09 = (1.016)^t

ln 1.09 = t ln 1.016

t = ln 1.09/ln 1.016

t = 5.429 which is approximately 5

So in 2007 + 5 = 2012, the population will be 15 million
