Answer:

Initial population is 2,466,000 ( p0 )

Growth is 1.1% each year ( r=1.1

p(t)=p0(1+r)t

After 30 years, the population of Jamaica should be 3.42 million by that calculation, but it is only 2.95 million, so apparently that growth rate was a little high, or wasn’t sustained.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) , that perpendicular to y = 2x - 4 that passes through the point (3, - 3)
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perp. -1/2

y + 3 = -1/2(x - 3)

y + 6/2 = -1/2x + 3/2

y = -1/2x - 3/2

I really need help on this please can someone help me thanks in advance

Answer: option 2 is the better option

Step-by-step explanation: well in this case as you are trying to find the individual prices of the candy bars, you would divide the total price by the amount of candy bars. So in this case for the first problem, you would take the total price: $6.75 and divide it by 10. The answer to this would be .675 but you would round it up to .68 so that you have a two digit decimal. Therefore the answer is .68 cents for each candy bar.

you would repeat this process for the second problem. Total price: $7.25 divided by 12 (candy bars). The answer in this problem would then be .60 cents per candy bar. Once we see how much each would be, it is just a matter of seeing which price is higher. In this case, the second option is the better option.

Sorry this was long, that's how i explain things, but i hope this helps

Given f(x) = x+2 and g(x) = x-4 solve for (fg)(x)
kirza4 [7]

Answer:  f(g(x)) = x - 2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = x + 2            

g(x) = x - 4

f(g(x)) = f(x - 4) = (x - 4) + 2        <em>replaced x with x - 4</em>

                       = x - 2                 <em>simplified</em>

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (6,-4) and a directrix at y= -7
shtirl [24]

Given:

The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).

Directrix at y=-7.

To find:

The equation of the parabola.

Solution:

The general equation of a parabola is:

y=\dfrac{1}{4p}(x-h)^2+k                  ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is vertex, (h,k+p) is the focus and y=k-p is the directrix.

The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).

(h,k+p)=(6,-4)

On comparing both sides, we get

h=6

k+p=-4                            ...(ii)

Directrix at y=-7. So,

k-p=-7                            ...(iii)

Adding (ii) and (iii), we get

2k=-11

k=\dfrac{-11}{2}

k=-5.5

Putting k=-5.5 in (ii), we get

-5.5+p=-4

p=-4+5.5

p=1.5

Putting h=6, k=-5.5,p=1.5 in (i), we get

y=\dfrac{1}{4(1.5)}(x-6)^2+(-5.5)

y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5.
