I graphed this line below.
Start with an open dot on 7.
The reason we use an open dot is because x
does not equal 7, it is only greater than 7.
So from your open dot, draw an arrow to the right
to represent all numbers greater than 7.
Finally, state your answer in set notation if possible.
It is read as {x: x > 7}.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The populational growth is exponential with a factor of 1.12 each year. An exponential function has the following general equation:
Where 'a' is the initial population (25,000 people), 'b' is the growth factor (1.12 per year), 'x' is the time elapsed, in years, and 'y(x)' is the population after 'x' years.
Therefore, the function P(t) that models the population in Madison t years from now is:
