I would probably distribute 15 with the parentheses 15x 9860 which is 147,900 then you would add 6997+147,900
Y= 154187
Multiple 2x * 5x =10x^2
Multiple 2x * -1 = -2x
Multiple 6 * 5x = 30x
Multiple 6 * -1 = -6
Add 30x + (-2x) = -28x
10x^2 + 28x -6 is the final answer
Answer:
-1 every time
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- P = -390t +48,000
- P = 43,710 in 2003
Step-by-step explanation:
A) We are given two pairs of (t, P): (0, 48000), (8, 44880). We can use these with the 2-point form of the equation of a line:
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
P = (44880 -48000)/(8 -0)(t -0) +48000
P = -3120/8t +48000
P = -390t +48000
__
B) In 2003, t = 11, so we have ...
P = -390(11) +48000 = 43710
The population in 2003 is predicted to be 43,710.
