Answer:
common ratio: 1.155
rate of growth: 15.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The model for exponential growth of population P looks like: 
where
is the population at time "t",
is the initial (starting) population
is the common ratio,
and
is the rate of growth
Therefore, in our case we can replace specific values in this expression (including population after 12 years, and initial population), and solve for the unknown common ratio and its related rate of growth:
![P(t)=P_i(1+r)^t\\13000=2300*(1+r)^{12}\\\frac{13000}{2300} = (1+r)^12\\\frac{130}{23} = (1+r)^{12}\\1+r=\sqrt[12]{\frac{130}{23} } =1.155273\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28t%29%3DP_i%281%2Br%29%5Et%5C%5C13000%3D2300%2A%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13000%7D%7B2300%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E12%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C1%2Br%3D%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%7D%20%3D1.155273%5C%5C)
This (1+r) is the common ratio, that we are asked to round to the nearest thousandth, so we use: 1.155
We are also asked to find the rate of increase (r), and to express it in percent form. Therefore we use the last equation shown above to solve for "r" and express tin percent form:

So, this number in percent form (and rounded to the nearest tenth as requested) is: 15.5 %
Answer :
<h3>
<u>
=1048576 ways </u>
a student can answer the questions on the test if the student answers every question.</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a multiple-choice test contains 10 questions and there are 4 possible answers for each question.
∴ Answers=4 options for each question.
<h3>
To find how many ways a student can answer the given questions on the test if the student answers every question :</h3>
Solving this by product rule
Product rule :
<u>If one event can occur in m ways and a second event occur in n ways, the number of ways of two events can occur in sequence is then m.n</u>
From the given the event of choosing the answer of each question having 4 options is given by
The 1st event of picking the answer of the 1st question=4 ,
2nd event of picking the answer of the 2nd question=4 ,
3rd event of picking the answer of the 3rd question=4
,....,
10th event of picking the answer of the 10th question=4.
It can be written as by using the product rule



<h3>∴ there are 1048576 ways a student can answer the questions on the test if the student answers every question.</h3>
Answer:
<em>The options are not visible enough (See Explanation)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x:- 1 || 2 || 3 || 4 || 5
y:- 13 || 22 || 37 || 58 || 85
Required
Determine if the function is quadratic
Calculate the difference between the values of y




<em>The resulting difference are: 9 || 15 || 21 || 27</em>
Next; Calculate the difference between the difference of values of y



<em>The resulting difference are: 6 || 6 || 6</em>
<em>For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are the same (6), then the function represents a quadratic function.</em>
