30 * 0.05 + 1 = X
1.5 + 1 = X
2.5 = X
The light remains yellow for 2.5 seconds on a street with a speed limit of 30.
a) The linear function that models the population in t years after 2004 is: P(t) = -200t + 29600.
b) Using the function, the estimate for the population in 2020 is of 26,400.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
The initial population in 2004, of 29600, is the y-intercept. In 12 years, the population decayed 2400, hence the slope is:
m = -2400/12 = -200.
Hence the equation is:
P(t) = -200t + 29600.
2020 is 16 years after 2004, hence the estimate is:
P(16) = -200(16) + 29600 = 26,400.

Answer:
you need to bring the 8x over then the -3
Step-by-step explanation:
X^2-3x+27=8x-3
X^2-11x+27=-3

So since we know what x is, we can substitute it into the original equation for x like so to solve for y...
(2y - 8) + 5y - 10 = 0
2y - 8 + 5y = 10
2y + 5y = 18
7y = 18
y = 18/7 (or about 2.57)
So now we know what x is, we can sub it into the below equation to solve for x...
x = 2(18/7) - 8
x = 36/14 - 8 (or about -5.43)
