Answer: 165

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation for decay :A= P(1-r)^t , where A is the value after t year, P = initial value.

As per given ,

P= 2378

t= 20 years

r = 12.5% = 0.125

Now ,

A=2378(1-0.125)^{20}\\\\=2378(0.875)^{20}\\\\= 2378(0.0692087587)\\\\=164.57842\approx 165

Hence, the population of the town in 2015 = 165

Simora [160]

Prove that the quadrilateral whose vertices are I(-2,3), J(2,6), K(7,6), and L(3, 3) is a rhombus.

I think in these problems the first step is to express each side as a vector.  A vector is the difference between points.  When two sides have the same vector (or negatives) it means they're parallel and congruent.  So in a rhombus IJKL the vectors IJ and LK should be the same, as should JK and IL.  That much assures a parallelogram; we check IJ and JK are congruent to complete the crowing of the rhombus.

Let's calculate these vectors:

IJ = J - I = (2,6) - (-2,3) = (2 - -2, 6 - 3) = (4, 3)

LK = K - L = (7, 6) - (3, 3) = (4, 3)

IJ = LK, so far so good

(Note: If you haven't got to vectors yet you can just show the two sides are the same length, 5, and have the same slope, 3/4, both of which can be read off the vectors.)

JK = K - J = (7,6) - (2,6) = (5,0)

IL = L - I = (3, 3) - (-2, 3)  = (5, 0)

Those are the same too.    

Now we have to show IJ ≅ JK

The length of IJ is the cliche √4²+3² = 5, the same as JK, so IJ ≅ JK

We showed all four sides are congruent and we have two pair of parallel sides, so we have a rhombus.

Can someone help me.​
salantis [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute the values of x in the table into g(x)

Using the rule of exponents

a^{-m} = \frac{1}{a^{m} }

g(- 2) = 4^{-2} = \frac{1}{4^{2} } = \frac{1}{16}

g(- 1) = 4^{-1} = \frac{1}{4}

g(0) = 4^{0} = 1

g(1) = 4^{1} = 4

g(2) = 4² = 16
