Answer:

P(t) = 20.7e^0.0087816t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Initial population ; Jan 1, 2000 = 20.7 million

Current population ; Jan, 2010 = 22.6 million

A function of the form P(t)

Where t = time

Usingbthe exponential growth function :

P(t) = Poe^rt ;

P(t) = population at a time after the initial population figure

Po = initial population

r = growth rate

t = time in years

P(t) = population in 2010 = 22.6 million

Po = population in 2000 = 20.7 million

t = 10 years

22.6 = 20.7e^r * 10

22.6 = 20.7e^10r

22.6 / 20.7 = e^10r

1.0917874 = e^10r

Take the In of both sides

In(1.0917874) = 1n(e^10r)

0.0878162 = 10r

r = 0.0878162 / 10

r = 0.0087816

Hence,

P(t) = 20.7e^0.0087816t

Which of the following statements best defines the cardinality of a sample space? A. Cardinality refers to the number of outcome
Natalka [10]
By definition, the word "cardinality" is a term most especially used to determine the "measure of number elements in a set." In addition to that, a sample space simply defines the number of possible outcomes in a random experiment. Therefore, the answer would be "<span>Cardinality refers to the number of outcomes in a sample space."</span>

A truck weighing 150kN and travelling at 2m/sec impacts with a buffer
FrozenT [24]

The maximum compression of the spring is 0.276 m

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we calculate the spring  constant of the spring, by using Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F = 10 kN = 10,000 N is the force applied

x = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m is the corresponding compression of the spring

k is the spring constant

Solving for k,

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{10,000}{0.0125}=8\cdot 10^5 N/m

When the truck impacts with the spring, all the kinetic energy of the truck is converted into elastic potential energy of the spring, so we can write

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 (1)

where

m is the mass of the truck

v = 2 m/s is the initial speed of the truck

k=8\cdot 10^5 N/m is the spring constant

x is the compression of the spring

The mass of the truck can be found from its weight:

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{150,000 N}{9.81 N/kg}=15,290 kg

So now we can re-arrange eq.(1) to find the compression, x:

x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(15,290)(2)^2}{8\cdot 10^5}}=0.276 m

Which choice shows the coordinates of B’ if the trapezoid is reflected across the x-axis?
Strike441 [17]
For this case we have that the original point is given by:
 B = (7, 2)
 As the point is reflected through the x axis, then we have the following transformation:
 (x, y) --------------> (x, -y) -------------> (x ', y')
 Applying the transformation to the original ordered pair we have:
 (7, 2) --------------> (7, - (2)) -------------> (7, -2)
 Answer:
 
Point B 'is given by:
 
B '= (7, -2)

Martin is interested in the effects of different kinds of instruction on videogame performance. Martin asks 30 college freshmen
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Between - groups variance

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we see that the college freshmen are assigned to one of the three given groups. This means that they are exposed to different experimental conditions and thus it means that the variation differs as a result of different experimental conditions between the groups.

Thus, these differences reflect between - group variance.
