Answer:
about 78 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Population
y =ab^t where a is the initial population and b is 1+the percent of increase
t is in years
y = 2000000(1+.04)^t
y = 2000000(1.04)^t
Food
y = a+bt where a is the initial population and b is constant increase
t is in years
b = .5 million = 500000
y = 4000000 +500000t
We need to set these equal and solve for t to determine when food shortage will occur
2000000(1.04)^t= 4000000 +500000t
Using graphing technology, (see attached graph The y axis is in millions of years), where these two lines intersect is the year where food shortages start.
t≈78 years
Answer:
y^2 - 5y - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
So you want f(y) such that
(y^2-5y+1) - f(y) = 5
Subtract both sides by (y^2-5y+1):
-f(y) = 5 - (y^2-5y+1)
-f(y) = -y^2 + 5y + 4
f(y) = y^2 - 5y - 4
So the polynomial you are looking for is y^2 - 5y - 4
