Answer:
The last choice is the one you want
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, a parabola has a minimum value if it is a positive parabola, one that opens upward. The first and the third parabolas are negative so they open upside down. That leaves us with choices 2 and 4. We find the side to side and up or down movement by finishing the completion of the square that has already been started for us. Do this by factoring what's inside the parenthesis into a perfect square binomial.
The second one factored becomes:
which reflects a shift to the right 3 and up 1. Not what we are asked to find.
The fourth one factored becomes:
which reflects a shift to the right 3 and down 5. That's what we want!
What must be true is the expression will actually be adding 10 + (+ x), because of the two marks you have to make when subtracting by a negative.
The subtraction sign is also the negative sign. So in this case, the expression is also saying -x, which means there is two negative signs.
A double negative is a positive, so in this case the x will be turned to a positive integer.
If this is still too confusing, she can plug in a number to replace x. Let’s try it with -2:
Ex. 10 - (-2)= 12.
The two negative signs turn into one positive sign, AKA an addition sign. So, the above expression can be simplified as 10 + 2, or 12.
Im really not sure how to answer this stuff
For this case, what you need to know is that to model this problem, you must use equations of the potential type:
y = A * (b) ^ t
Where:
A: initial population.
b: growth rate.
t: time.
Substituting values we have:
y = 15200 * (1.02) ^ t
After 10 years we have:
y = 15200 * (1.02) ^ 10
y = 18529
Answer:
An equation to model of the population growth is:
y = 15,200 ∙ 1.02 ^ x
the population after 10 years is:
about 18,529
