A=P(1-r)^t
A is the final amount.
P is the principle or starting value.
Minus because the function is decay or decreasing.
r is the rate as a decimal
t is the years

A=12,500(1-.06)^t
Where t is the years.

For 4 years let t=4
A=12,500(1-.06)^4

A=9,759.362
Assuming you cannot have part of a person, since we are looking at population of a town.
= 9,759

A vendor sold a combined 234 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas was two times the number of hot dogs sold. Find the number
babymother [125]

Answer:

  • 156 hot dogs
  • 78 sodas

Step-by-step explanation:

A group of 2 hot dogs and 1 soda makes a group of 3 items. There were ...

  234/3 = 78

groups of items sold.

Since there is 1 soda in the group, that's 78 sodas. The number of hot dogs is 2 times that, or 156 hot dogs.

78 sodas and 156 hot dogs were sold.

Is x + 10 a factor of the function f(x) = x3 − 75x + 250? Explain.
PtichkaEL [24]
Yes. When the function f(x) = x3 – 75x + 250 is divided by x + 10, the remainder is zero. Therefore, x + 10 is a factor of f(x) = x3 – 75x + 250. 

According to the remainder theorem when f(x) is divided by (x+a) the remainder is f(-a). 
In this case, 
f(x)=x^3-75x+250 
(x+a)=(x+10) 
Therefore, the remainder f(-a)=f(-10) 

=x^3-75x+250 
=(-10)^3-(75*-10)+250 
=-1000+750+250 
=1000-1000 
=0. 
The remainder is 0. So, (x+10) is a factor of x^3-75x+250.
