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

Answer: (x + [-1], y + [1])

Step-by-step explanation:

      <em>See attached. </em>We can draw, or picture it in our heads, what the reflection would look like. Then we can pick one (or multiple to test) points and see the translation.

      We can also test with a set of points. B', (2, 4) becomes G in the transformation. G is at (1, 5)

      (1 - 2, 5 - 4) -> (-1, 1)

Mr. James has cylindrical beakers that measure 4 inches in diameter and 9 inches high. What is the volume contained within the b
goblinko [34]
So 4 inches diameter result the radius is 4/2 = 2 inches 

area of base = pir^2 = 3,14*2^2 = 3,14*4 = 12,56 inches squared 

volume = area of base *height 

V = 12,56 *9 = 113,04 so rounded 113,05 inches cubed 

hope this will help you
