Answer:

The estimated populations in the years 2013 and 2020 are 320.262 and 343.365 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The resident populations P (in millions) of the united states from 1995 through 2010 can be modeled by the exponential function

p(t)=254.75(1.01)^t

Where t is the time in years,with t = 5 corresponding to 1995.

It means the initial year is 1990, ( 1995 - 5 = 1990).

Using this model we need to estimate the populations in the years 2013 and 2020.

2013 - 1990 = 23

Substitute t=23 in the given function.

p(23)=254.75(1.01)^{23}\approx 320.262

2020 - 1990 = 30

Substitute t=30 in the given function.

p(30)=254.75(1.01)^{30}\approx 343.365

Therefore, the estimated populations in the years 2013 and 2020 are 320.262 and 343.365 respectively.

(-4, -2); y = - 2x + 4
padilas [110]

Answer:

y = -2x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of equation is of form

y = mx+c

where m is the slope of line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Y intercept is point on y axis where the line intersects the y axis.

_____________________________

Given equation

y = -2x +4

comparing it with y = mx+ c

m = -2 , c = 4

_____________________________

when two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal.

Let the equation of new line in slope intercept form be y = mx + c

Thus slope of of new required line is -2

Thus m for new line is -2.

now, equation of required line : y = -2x+c

Given that this line passes through (-4, -2). This point shall should satisfy equation  y = -2x+c.

Substituting the value of (-4, -2) we have

-2 = -2(-4)+c

=> -2 = 8 +c

=> -2 -8 = c

=> c = -10.

Thus , equation of required line is  y = -2x - 10.
