Greater than 100 but less than 150
Answer:
Thermometer reading of the lowest recorded temperature at Oymyakon was -96.2° F
Thermometer reading of the lowest recorded temperature at Prospect Creek was -80° F
Step-by-step explanation:
If the temperature is x° F below 0° F then the thermometer reading is -x° F
It is given that the Lowest temperature recorded at Oymyakon in Russai was 96.2°F below 0°F
So the thermometer reading of the lowest recorded temperature at Oymyakon was -96.2° F
Also it is given that the Lowest temperature recorded at Prospect Creek in Alaska was 80°F below 0° F
So the thermometer reading of the lowest recorded temperature at Prospect Creek was -80° F
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your exponential formula is in the form y = ab^x. In this form, the coefficient 'a' is the initial value, the y-intercept, the value when x=0. The value 'b' is the growth factor, which is 1 more than the growth rate per increment of x. This problem is asking for the growth rate to be expressed as a percentage.
__
Given p(x) = 78500(1.02^x), we can compare to the exponential function form to see that ...
- a = 78,500
- b = 1.02 = 1 +0.02 = 1 +2%
The value of x is zero in the year 2000, so the population that year is ...
p(0) = a = 78,500
The increase per year is the value of 'b' with 1 subtracted:
growth rate = 2% per year
