You can try formulating an equation to model this change:

Let 'x' be the population of the town last year. It follows that: 
1.21x = 15049 

and hence 
x =  \frac{15049}{1.21}

The functions f (x) = 1/2x-3 and g(x) = -2x+ 2 intersect<br> at x = -2. True or false?
Norma-Jean [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  False

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-2) = (1/2)(-2) -3 = -1 -3 = -4

g(-2) = -2(-2) +2 = 4 +2 = 6

The function values are not the same at x=-2, so the graphs do not intersect there.

__

The graphs intersect at x=2.

Calc derivatives help
user100 [1]

Answer:

x^4 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the derivative of a function includes the following:

f(a+h) - f(a)

and in this case we have

f(4+h) - f(4) => f(4 + h)^4 - 4^4.

Comparing this to

f(a + h) - f(a), we see that a must be 4 and f(x) must be x^4.
