Answer:

70/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a population of 200 people

Growth rate = 2%

How long it will take for the population to double

Double the population = 2× 200 = 400

The formula for Exponential growth =

y = a(1 + r)^t

y = Value at time t = 400

a = Initial value = 200

r = 2% = 0.02

t = ?

Hence:

400 = 200 ( 1 + 0.02)^t

Divide both sides by 200

400/200 = 200 ( 1 + 0.02)^t/200

2 = (1.02)^t

Take logarithm of both sides

log 2 = log(1.02)^t

log 2 = t log 1.02

t = log 2/log 1.02

t = 35.003417942

Approximately t = 35

We have so many formula to calculate doubling time

t = 70/Growth rate

From the above question

Growth rate = 70/2%

= 35

Therefore, the equation that we use to calculate how long it will take for the population to double to 400 people is 70/2

The approximate length of rail that needs to be replaced is 7.1 ft

<h3>Length of arc</h3>

Since the pool is circular, the approximate length that needs to be replaced is an arc of length, L = Ф/360° × πD where

  • Ф = central angle of rail section = 27° and
  • D = diameter of circular pool = 30 ft

<h3>Approximate length of rail</h3>

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

L = Ф/360° × πD

L = 27°/360° × π × 30 ft

L = 3/40 × π × 30 ft

L = 3/4 × π × 3 ft

L = 9/4 × π  ft

L = 2.25 × π  ft

L = 7.07 ft

L ≅ 7.1 ft

So, the approximate length of rail that needs to be replaced is 7.1 ft

Coco needs 150mg of a medication that comes in tablets labelled 100mg each. How many tablets will you give her?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 tablet is 100mg, and you need 150mg, we set up this equation:

Let x be the number of tablets Coco needs.

x = 150/100

x = 1.5

Therefore, you need 1.5 tablets for the medication.
