The lines on a basketball form a half circle at the free throw line. Use the picture to determine the area of the half circle. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer: the expected population of the city in 30 years is 5470781
Step-by-step explanation:
The population growth is exponential. The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
A = P(1 + r)^t
Where
A represents the population after t years.
t represents the number of years.
P represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
P = 3.5 × 10^6
r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015
t = 30 years
Therefore,
A = 3.5 × 10^6(1 + 0.015)^30
A = 3.5 × 10^6(1.015)^30
A = 5470781
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Determine an ordered pair</u>
A solution of an equation just means that the point lies on the line. We can find any y-value when we plug in a specific x-value. For example, if we want to know what ordered pair lies at x=1, we just plug in y = -1/2(1) and solve for y which gives us -1/2. This gives us an ordered pair of (1, -1/2). We can continue to do this for any x value.
We can also reverse the order and plug in the y-value and get the x-value in order to accomplish the same goal but it's a bit harder.
Hope this helps!
