Answer:

20 books

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the shelf can hold 25 1/2 lbs (i.e 25.5 lbs), and that each book weighs 1 1/4 ln (i.e 1.25 lbs)

number of books which the shelf can hold

= weight that the shelf can hold ÷ weight of each book

= 25.5 ÷ 1.25

= 20.4 books

because having 0.4 of a book (i.e part of a book) would not be very feasable, we have to round the number of books down to the nearest whole number)

20.4 books rounded down to nearest whole number = 20 books (answer)

Using an exponential function, it is found that the population of Clay County will be of $13,482.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the current population is 10,300 people, with a growth rate of 3%, hence A(0) = 10,300 and r = 0.03.

The equation is given by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

A(t) = 10300(1 + 0.03)^t

A(t) = 10300(1.03)^t

Hence, in 10 years, the population will be given by:

A(10) = 10300(1.03)^{10} = 13842
