Answer:

y = 2/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2/3x + b

substitute

4 = 2/3(-6) + b

4 = -4 + b

what number added to -4 will equal 4? the only answer is 8.

-4 + 8 = 4.

b = 4

Jimmy can run 3.5 miles in 20 minutes. how far can ne run in one hour and ten minutes?

prisoha [69]

Hello There!

Before we start, I am going to divide 3.5 by 2 because then we can multiply by 7 to see how far Jimmy can run in 70 minutes.

Jimmy can run 1.75 miles in 10 minutes.

To find out how many miles he can run in 70 minutes, we just multiply 1.75 by 7 and we get a product of 12.25

The city of Anvil is currently home to 21000 people, and the population has been growing at a continuous rate of 4% per year. Th

Yanka [14]

Answer:

They'll reach the same population in approximately 113.24 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both population grows at an exponential rate, then their population over the years can be found as:

$\text{population}(t) = \text{population}(0)*(1 + \frac{r}{100})^t$

For the city of Anvil:

$\text{population anvil}(t) = 21000*(1.04)^t$

For the city of Brinker:

$\text{population brinker}(t) = 7000*(1.05)^t$

We need to find the value of "t" that satisfies:

$\text{population brinker}(t) = \text{population anvil}(t)\\21000*(1.04)^t = 7000*(1.05)^t\\ln[21000*(1.04)^t] = ln[7000*(1.05)^t]\\ln(21000) + t*ln(1.04) = ln(7000) + t*ln(1.05)\\9.952 + t*0.039 = 8.8536 + t*0.0487\\t*0.0487 - t*0.039 = 9.952 - 8.8536\\t*0.0097 = 1.0984\\t = \frac{1.0984}{0.0097}\\t = 113.24$
