Answer: a. $f(x)=5054(1.02)^x$

b. The population in 2032 will be 8292.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth equation: $y=a(1+r)^x$ , where a = initial value , r = growth rate, x = time period

Given: a = 5054 , r= 0.02

a. Required exponential growth function: $f(x)=5054(1+0.02)^x$

$f(x)=5054(1.02)^x$

b. For 2032, x= 25

$f(25)=5054(1.02)^{25}$

$\approx8291.62\approx8292$

The population in 2032 will be 8292.

What is the coefficient of q in the sum of (2/3q-3/4) and(-1/6q-r)?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The coefficient is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sum is

$(\frac{2}{3}q -\frac{3}{4})+(-\frac{1}{6}q-r)$

We can choose to add only the coeffients of $q$ or simplify the whole sum.

$=\frac{2}{3}q -\frac{1}{6}q-\frac{3}{4})-r)$

We collect the LCM for the $q$ terms;

$=\frac{4-1}{6}q-\frac{3}{4})-r)$

This will give us;

$=\frac{3}{6}q-\frac{3}{4})-r)$

Which is the same as

$=\frac{1}{2}q-r-\frac{3}{4}$

The coefficient is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length formula is

$s = rx$

where x is radinas.

A semi circle has a radian measure of

$\pi$

The radius is half of the diameter, 12 so the radius is

$12 \times \frac{1}{2} = 6$

So the arc length is

$6 \times \pi = 6\pi$

Area of semi circle is

$\frac{1}{2} \pi {r}^{2}$

where r is the radius.

$\frac{1}{2} \pi6 {}^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2} 36\pi$

$18\pi$

George cut a cake into eight pieces. Explain what the unit fraction of the cake is.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

1/8th

Step-by-step explanation: A unit fraction is a rational number written as a fraction where the numerator is one and the denominator is a positive integer. A unit fraction is therefore the reciprocal of a positive integer, 1/n. Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 ,1/5, etc. so in this case the cake is eight slices so 1/8
