From 1990 to 2000, the population of Florida increased by 2.13% per year. The population (in millions) in the year 1990 was 16 E
belka [17]

Answer:

19 million

Step-by-step explanation:

So generally whenever we express a exponential function, it's in the form: y=a(b)^x

where a=initial value aka when x=0

in this case, b can be expressed as: 1+r, where r is the growth rate, which in this case is 2.13%, and expressing that as a decimal (divide by 100), r=0.0213, thus b=1.0213

This gives us the following equation: y=16(1.0213)^x

To kind of give you a intuitive reason as to why this makes sense, think of that 1.0213 wrapping around the previous value.

So when x=0, it's actually just 16, since any number (besides 0) to the power of 0, equals 1.

When x=1, we get: 1.0213(16), which can be expressed as a 2.13% increase from year 0

When x=2, we get: 1.0213(1.0213(16)), which can be expressed as a 2.13% increase from year 1

when x=3, we get: 1.0213(1.0213(1.0213(16))), which can be expressed as a 2.13% increase from year 2.

In other words, each year we're getting another 1.0213 to multiply by (very definition of an exponent).

So to calculate the population in 1997, we put in x=7, since it's 7 years after 1990

We get the following equation: y=16(1.0213)^7

Using a calculator this simplifies to approximately: 18.5436

Rounding this to the nearest integer would yield 19, and since the values are expressed in millions, the answer would be 19 million

there are 24 marbles in a bag: 2/16 of the marbles are red, 1/8 of the marbles are blue, 1/4 of the marbles are yellow, 1/3 of t
Roman55 [17]

Answer: 3 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, 8 black marbles, 4 silver marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

I know these are the correct number of marbles because I set up these numbers as fractions and solved for x.

For examples, 2/16 of the marbles are red. 2/16=x/24

You would do this because we are trying to find the number of marbles that are red out of the 24 marbles.

Next, we would do 24 divided by 16= 1.5 Then 1.5 times 2=3

You would follow this rule for each fraction of marbles in order to find the true number of marbles out of 24.

Find the value of the lesser root of x2 + 12x + 35 = 0.
matrenka [14]
In quadratic equations,
                                   a + b = -B
                                      ab = C
where a and b are the roots, B is the second term, and C is the constant.
Substituting,
                                  a + b = -12
                                      ab = 35
The values of a and b from the equation is -7 and -5. Thus, the lesser root is -7.
