5. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-1, 2) and is perpendicular to the line y = 3/2

x + 6
O y = 3/2x + 5/2
O y = 3/2x + 4/3
O y = -2/3x + 5/2
O y = -2/3x + 4/3

Answer:

D.  y = -2/3 x + 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a perpendicular line, everything except the y-intercept becomes opposite. So 3/2x + 6 will become -2/3x.

To find the slope, you have to plug the coordinates into the equation so far which is y = -2/3x + b

y = -2/3x + b

2 = -2/3(-1) + b

2 = 2/3 + b

4/3 = b

So the equation is y = -2/3 x + 4/3.

The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. The initial
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

P(0) = 7,917

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the community is given by the following formula:

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate.

The initial population P0 has doubled in 5 years.

This means that

P(5) = 2P(0)

Which lets us find r.

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}

2P(0) = P(0)(1+r)^{5}

(1+r)^{5} = 2

Applying the 5th root to both sides

1+r = 1.1487

r = 0.1487

So

P(t) = P(0)(1.1487)^{t}

Suppose it is known that the population is 12,000 after 3 years.

With this, we find P(0)

P(t) = P(0)(1.1487)^{t}

12000 = P(0)(1.1487)^{3}

1.5157P(0) = 12000

P(0) = \frac{12000}{1.5157}

P(0) = 7917
