Answer:

Remember the relation:

Ln(a^x) = x*ln(a)

In 1969, the club had 20,000 members, and it grew an average of 6.4% (or 0.064 in decimal form, this is the one we will use) per year.

This means that in 1970, the club had:

20,000 + (0.064)*20,000 = (1.064)*20,000

In 1971, the club had:

(1.064)*20,000 + 0.064*(1.064)*20,000 = (1.064)^2*20,000 members.

Already you can see a pattern, N years after 1969, the club will have:

M(N) = (1.064)^N*20,000 members

Now we want to find the number N such that:

M(N) = 50,000 = (1.064)^N*20,000

Let's solve this for N.

50,000 = (1.064)^N*20,000

50,000/20,000 =  (1.064)^N

5/2 =  (1.064)^N

Now we apply Ln( ) in both sides

ln(5/2) = ln( (1.064)^N) = N*ln( 1.064)

N = ln(5/2)/ln( 1.064) = 14.8

Then will pass 14.8 years (since 1969) to reach the 50,000 members

Variable y varies directly with variable x, and y = 45 when x = 9.
Alenkasestr [34]
Direct variation means their ratio is a constant
x/y is 9/45=1/5
so when x=2, y=5*2=10

What is the equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the points (–1, 3) and (–2, –3)?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The answer is y = 6x + 9.

-

Step-by-step explanation:

☆Remember: m =  \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

☆Slope-intercept: y = mx + b

---

☆We need to find the slope first. So just plug in according to the slope formula!

m =  \frac{ - 3 - 3}{ - 2 - ( - 1)}  =  \frac{ - 6}{ - 1}  = 6

---

☆Now we need to find the y-intercept. We are going to plug in the slope and a set of coordinates to find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b \\ 3 = 6( -1 ) + b \\ 3 =  - 6 + b \\  \frac{ + 6 =  + 6 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: }{9 = b \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: }

---

☆Now all we need to do is plug in and we are done!

y = 6x + 9
