Answer:

5.78

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original population be, P = x

Growth in 12 years, A = 2x

Rate be = r

Time = 12years

<u>Find the rate :</u>

   A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^t

 2x = x(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{12}\\\\\frac{2x}{x} =(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{12}\\\\2 = (1 + \frac{r}{100})^{12}\\\\ \sqrt[12]{2} = (1 + \frac{r}{100})\\\\\sqrt[12]{2} - 1  = \frac{r}{100}\\\\2^{0.08} - 1 = \frac{r}{100}\\\\1.057 - 1 = \frac{r}{100}\\\\0.057 \times 100 = r\\\\r = 5.7 \%

The annual rate of increase of the population of this city is approximately 5.78.

<em><u>Find  time in which the population becomes 3 times.</u></em>

That is A = 3x

P = x

R= 5.78%

               A = P( 1 + \frac{r}{100})^t\\\\3x = x ( 1 + \frac{5.78}{100})^t\\\\3 = (1.0578)^t\\\\log \ 3 = t \times log \ 1.0578 \\\\t = \frac{log \ 3}{ log \ 1.0578 }\\\\t = 19.55

The population will grow to three times its current size in approximately 19years .

Isabella went into a movie theater and bought 3 drinks and 10 pretzels, costing a total of $54.50. Jason went into the same movi
ruslelena [56]

The price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let d" be the price of 1 drink

Let "p" be the price of 1 pretzel

Given that, Isabella went into a movie theater and bought 3 drinks and 10 pretzels, costing a total of $54.50

<em><u>Therefore, we can frame a equation as,</u></em>

3 x price of 1 drink + 10 x price of 1 pretzel = 54.50

3 \times d + 10 \times p = 54.50

3d + 10p = 54.5 ---------- eqn 1

Jason went into the same movie theater and bought 9 drinks and 5 pretzels, costing a total of $57.25

9 x price of 1 drink + 5 x price of 1 pretzel = 57.25

9 \times d + 5 \times p = 57.25

9d + 5p = 57.25 ---------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

Multiply eqn 1 by 3

9d + 30p = 163.5 ----- eqn 3

<em><u>Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3</u></em>

9d + 30p = 163.5

9d + 5p = 57.25

( - ) -----------------------

25p = 106.25

p = 4.25

<em><u>Substitute p = 4.25 in eqn 1</u></em>

3d + 10(4.25) = 54.5

3d + 42.5 = 54.5

3d = 54.5 - 42.5

3d = 12

d = 4

Thus price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

Given the function f(x) = 2x+4 and the domain: {-1,0,1},determine the range
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

f(x) = 2x + 4 domains {-1, 0, 1}

range {2, 4, 6}

(please mark brain if this helps and is correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve f(x) to find the range you would want to input all the domain numbers in the equation f(x) to get the range of all the numbers you need

step 1: take the first domain number and input it into your equation where x is

ex: 2x + 4   [2(-1) + 4] = -2 + 4 = 2

step 2: add the second domain number and input it into your equation where x is

ex: 2x + 4   [2(0) + 4] = 0 + 4 = 4

step 3: add the last domain number and input it into your equation where x is

ex: 2x + 4   [2(1) + 4] = 2 + 4 = 6

Now we have determined what the range is
