Answer:

  11.0 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function describing the population growth can be written ...

  population = (initial population)×(1 +growth rate)^years

If t represents the number of years, we can fill in the values to get ...

  18500 = 12000×1.04^t

Dividing by 12000 gives ...

  18500/12000 = 1.04^t

Taking logarithms, we have ...

  log(18500/12000) = t×log(1.04)

  t = log(185/120)/log(1.04) ≈ 11.037 ≈ 11.0

It will be 11.0 years until the population reaches 18,500.

How do you do this question?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the divergence test, if the limit of a sequence as n approaches infinity does not equal 0, then the series diverges.  (Notice that if the limit does equal 0, the series doesn't necessarily converge).

According to the geometric series test, a geometric series converges if -1 < r < 1, and diverges otherwise.

The first series is a geometric series with r = -5/3.  So it diverges.

The second series is also a geometric series:

3ⁿ⁻¹ / 2ⁿ = ⅓ (3ⁿ / 2ⁿ) = ⅓ (3/2)ⁿ

r = 3/2, so it diverges.

For the third series, the limit as n approaches infinity equals 1.  This fails the divergence test, so this series also diverges.

For the fourth series, the limit as n approaches infinity equals 1.  This fails the divergence test, so this series also diverges.
