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 table below shows the number of hours some business people in two states spend in meetings each week: State A 21 23 24 22 24
Lera25 [3.4K]
State A:
21,22,22,23,23,23,24,24,25

minimum = 21
Q1 = 22
Q2(median) = 23
Q3 = 24
maximum = 25
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 24 - 22 = 2

state B:
20,20,21,22,23,23,24,46,50
minimum = 20
Q1 = (20 + 21)/2 = 20.5
Q2(median) = 23
Q3 = (24 + 46)/2 = 35
maximum = 50
IQR = 35 - 20.5 = 14.5

I do not believe they are symmetrical....I think state B is skewed to the right

At the local ball park, the team charges $5 for each ticket and expects to make $1,400 in concessions. The team must pay its pla
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The number of tickets must be sold is 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

The charge for each ticket = $ 5

The concessions amount =  $ 1400

The amount paid to players = $ 2000

The amount paid to workers = $ 1600

The cost of each bag given to each fan = $ 3 per bag

Let The number of tickets sold = x

Now, number of ticket sold = number of fans = x

So, According to question

( charge per ticket × number of fans - cost of each bag × number of fan - concession amount ) =  amount paid to players + amount paid to workers

Or, $5 x - $3 x - $1400 = $2000 + $1600

Or, $2 x = $3600 + $1400

Or, $2 x = $5000

∴         x = \frac{5000}{2} = 2500

Hence  Answer
