Answer:

  • P = -390t +48,000
  • P = 43,710 in 2003

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given two pairs of (t, P): (0, 48000), (8, 44880). We can use these with the 2-point form of the equation of a line:

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  P = (44880 -48000)/(8 -0)(t -0) +48000

  P = -3120/8t +48000

  P = -390t +48000

__

B) In 2003, t = 11, so we have ...

  P = -390(11) +48000 = 43710

The population in 2003 is predicted to be 43,710.

What is the measure of RSP in the diagram below
kirill [66]

The answer would be 58 degrees. You have to add the measure of R and P, and since a triangle is a total of 180 degrees, you subtract the sum and R and P from 180 and get your answer. Hope this helps!

L varies directly with the square of Z. L is 12 when Z is 2. Find the value of L when Z is 4.
kow [346]

Answer:

L = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that L varies directly with Z² , then the equation relating them is

L = kZ² ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition L = 12 when Z = 2 , then

12 = k × 2² = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

3 = k

L = 3Z² ← equation of variation

When Z = 4 , then

L = 3 × 4² = 3 × 16 = 48
