The percent of increase is approximately 23.8%.
Answer: 1211.6585 years
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The equation for exponential growth is: 
- P: final population
- P₀: initial population
- k: rate of decay (or growth)
- t: time
Use the half life information to find k:

Next, input the information (65% decayed = 35% remaining) and the k-value to find your answer.

Answer:
114
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(7) substitute x = 7 into f(x), that is
f(7) = 268 - 22(7) = 268 - 154 = 114
the equation here would be set up by doing
44.4 - 10.9 = 33.5
Carlsbad caverns is 33.5 kilometers long.

Two lines are parallel when their slopes are the same.
