Answer:

10,000 * (square miles in the city)

Step-by-step explanation:

You've been given a population of people for every square mile (10,000) and you're trying to figure out how many people live in the city.

To convert people per a square mile into people, you'll need to know how many square miles you have. I assume you've been given this as the size of the city or how many square miles the city takes up. Just multiply the amount of people per a square mile by the amount of square miles in the city, and it'll give you the population of people in every square mile of the city (the population).

Note:

This is people per a square mile, or in other words, for every square mile of city, 10,000 people live there. If you have 2 square miles of city, then 2 * 10,000 = 20,000 people live there.

What is the sum of the geometric series 2+6+18+...+486?

marin [14]

Answer:

728

Step-by-step explanation:

2+6+18+...+486

a=2

r=6/2=3

$a_{n}=ar^{n-1}\\486=2(3)^{n-1}\\3^{n-1}=486/2=243=3^5\\n-1=5\\n=5+1=6\\S_{6}=2\frac{3^6-1}{3-1} \\=2\frac{729-1}{2}\\=728$

The graph of y= - 1/2x+2 is positive over the interval (4, infinity) and negative over the interval (-infinity, 4) .What happens

vichka [17]

The graph of y=ax+b, where a≠0, is always a line:

i) increasing if a>0
ii) decreasing if a<0

Consider the decreasing case.

The line is above the x-axis, that is positive but decreasing. At 1 single point it cuts the x-axis, so x=0, and then it continues decreasing below the x-axis.

Back to our problem:

The graph of y=-1/2 x +2 is a decreasing line.,

so it CANNOT be
"positive over the interval (4, infinity) and negative over the interval (-infinity, 4)"

it is

"negative over the interval (4, infinity) and positive over the interval (-infinity, 4)"

the graph is "positive over the interval (-infinity, 4)", it means that the line is decreasing but above the x-axis until 4, (4 not included).

then, "negative over the interval (4, infinity)", which means that the line is now decreasing below the x-axis.

when x=4, the line cuts the x-axis.
