Hi there
First find the growth rate between 1990 and 1997
The formula is
P=Ae^rt
P 51 million
A 48 million
E constant
R growth rate?
T time 1,997−1,990=7 years
We need to solve for r
R=[log (p/A)÷log (e)]÷t
R=(log(51÷48)÷log(e))÷7
R=0.009

Now find the population in 2017
P=Ae^rt
P ?
A 48 million
R 0.009
T time 2,017−1,990=27 years
So
P=48×e^(0.009×27)
P=61 million

Hope it helps

Write y+7=4(x+2) in standard form.
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

1 = 4x -y

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 4

y + 7 = 4x + 8

Subtract the 7

y = 4x - 1

Subtract y and add 1

Find the roots of the parabola given by the following equation <br> 2x^2+5X-9=2x
natta225 [31]

Answer:

x=-3\:or\:x=\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parabola has equation

2x^2+5x-9=2x

We rewrite in standard form to obtain:

2x^2+5x-2x-9=0

2x^2+3x-9=0

Split the middle terms to get:

2x^2+6x-3x-9=0

Factor by grouping:

2x(x+3)-3(x+3)=0

(x+3)(2x-3)=0

x=-3\:or\:x=\frac{3}{2}

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+2y=28
malfutka [58]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, place the given equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx +b format) to find its slope easier. Isolate the y:

2x + 2y = 28\\2y = -2x + 28\\y = -x+14

So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = -x + 14. When an equation is in slope-intercept form, the m, or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. Thus, the slope for the given line would be -1.

2) Lines that are perpendicular have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of each other. We need to find the opposite reciprocal of -1, then.

To find the opposite reciprocal of a number, write the given number as a fraction first -- making -1 be written as   -\frac{1}{1} -- then switch the sign and flip the numerator and denominator. So, the opposite reciprocal of -1 is 1, and 1 is the slope of the perpendicular line.

A pizza chain plans to locate a new pizza franchise on the CCSU campus if the results of a survey show that more than 10% of CCS
kari74 [83]

Answer:

a) Null and alternative hypothesis:

H_0: \pi=0.1\\\\H_a:\pi>0.1

b) A Type I error is made when a true null hypothesis is rejected. In this case, it would mean a conclusion that the proportion is significantly bigger than 10%, when in fact it is not.

c) The consequences would be that they would be more optimistic than they should about the result of the investment, expecting a proportion of students that is bigger than the true population proportion.

d) A Type II error is made when a false null hypothesis is failed to be rejected. This would mean that, although the proportion is significantly bigger than 10%, there is no enough evidence and it is concluded erroneously that the proportion is not significantly bigger than 10%

e) The consequences would be that the investment may not be made, even when the results would have been more positive than expected from the conclusion of the hypothesis test.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The hypothesis should be carried to test if the proportion of students that would eat there at least once a week is significantly higher than 10%.

Then, the alternative or spectulative hypothesis will state this claim: that the population proportion is significantly bigger than 10%.

On the contrary, the null hypothesis will state that this proportion is not significantly higher than 10%.

This can be written as:

H_0: \pi=0.1\\\\H_a:\pi>0.1
