I'm guessing you mean f(x)=15,000(9/8)^x. If this is what you mean, the population would increase by about 12,000 (12030.4870605 to be exact).
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting equation: f(x)=15,000(9/8)^x
You can clean up the 9/8 to be 1.125
Now what you want to do is find the answer to (9/8)^5 which is 1.8020324707
Next multiply 1.8020324707 by 15,000 and you get 27030.4870605
Finally 27,030.4870605 - 15,000 gives you 12030.4870605. Which means that the population increased by about 12,000.
Please mark me brainiest cuz I need one more to level up!! Thank you
1) 13a=-5
Make a the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by 13(the coefficient of a)
13a/13=-5/13
Therefore a= -0.385
The second one). 12-b= 12.5
You take the 12 to the other side making b subject of the formula (-b in this case)
-b= 12.5-12
-b= 0.5
(You cannot leave b with a negative sign so you will divide both sides by -1 to cancel out the negative sign)
-b/-1= 0.5/-1
Therefore b=-0.5
The third one). -0.1= -10c
You will divide both sides by the coefficient of c(number next to c) which is -10
-0.1/-10= -10c/-10
Hence, c= 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:
You "complete the square" by adding the square of half the x-term coefficient. Here, that is ...
((-2)/2)² = 1 . . . . value added to complete the square
If you want to keep 0 on the right, you must also subtract this value:
x² -2x -36 = 0
x² -2x +1 -36 -1 = 0 . . . . . . add and subtract 1 on the left
(x -1)² -37 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square
