Answer:

2062 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, you have an exponential function going on here. If you start with 900 employees and add 5 percent to the amount of employees (multiply by 1.005) seventeen times, you will get the equation E=900*1.05^{17}. If we round down (because there can not be a fraction of an employee), there will be 2062 employees after 17 years.

How can you use a number to explain what an integer and rational numberes are?
enot [183]

Natural numbers are all numbers 1, 2, 3, 4… They are the numbers you usually count and they will continue on into infinity.

Whole numbers are all natural numbers including 0 e.g. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4…

Integers include all whole numbers and their negative counterpart e.g. …-4, -3, -2, -1, 0,1, 2, 3, 4,…

All integers belong to the rational numbers. A rational number is a number

ab,b≠0

Where a and b are both integers.

Example

The number 4 is an integer as well as a rational number. As it can be written without a decimal component it belongs to the integers. It is a rational number because it can be written as:

41

or

82

or even

−8−2

Whereas

15=0.2

is a rational number but not an integer.

A rational number written in a decimal form can either be terminating as in:

15=0.2

Or repeating as in

56=0.83333...

All rational numbers belong to the real numbers.

If you look at a numeral line

picture05

You notice that all integers, as well as all rational numbers, are at a specific distance from 0. This distance between a number x and 0 is called a number's absolute value. It is shown with the symbol

|x|

If two numbers are at the same distance from 0 as in the case of 10 and -10 they are called opposites. Opposites have the same absolute value since they are both at the same distance from 0.

|10|=10=|−10|

Help me solve this... i have a time limit so answer fast!!!
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Altitude²

35² = 15² + x²

1225 = 225 + x²

x² = 1225 - 225

x² = 1000

<u>X = 10√10</u>

The two-dimensional net of a rectangular prism is shown at the left. What is the prism’s surface area? square units
Tasya [4]

Answer:

28 units²  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that your net has the dimensions shown below.

Its area is

2 yellow rectangles = 2(4 × 2) = 2 × 8 = 16 units²

2 grey rectangles    =  2(4 × 1) = 2 × 4  =  8 units²

2 green rectangles  = 2(2 × 1)  = 2 × 2  = <u> 4 units²</u>

                                                 TOTAL = 28 units²

The prism's surface area is 28 units².
