It should be the 3rd one but idk for sure. if its not then its the 3rd one
The solutions are
.
Solution:
Given equation:

Add
on both sides.

-------- (1)
(given) -------- (2)
Equate (1) and (2).

Add
on both sides.


Add 5 on both sides.


Divide by 5 on both sides, we get

Taking square root on both sides, we get

Substitute
in (1).



Substitute
in (1).



Therefore the solutions are
.
Option C is the correct answer.
Answer:
this answer should be -6x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 1993 = time 0 = 0.
Let 1999 = time 6 = 6
Let 2012 = time 19 = 19
So, a = 171 (million). First solve for k.
176 = 171 e^k6
176/171 = e^(k*6)
ln (176/171) = 6k
k = 1/6 ln (176/171)
So, in 2012 we have: P(19) = 171 e^(19k), where k = 1/6 ln (176/171)
Hope this helped!
