Answer:

The population at the beginning of 2016 is 55,326.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Population 2010 (PV)= 42,000

Growth rate (g)= 4.7% = 0.047

Number of years (n)= 6 years

<u>To calculate the population at the beginning of 2016, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= PV*(1+g)^n

FV= 42,000*(1.047^6)

FV= 55,326

The population at the beginning of 2016 is 55,326.

Write the number five million four thousand three hundred in standard form
valentinak56 [21]

Written numerically, the number you stated is written as:

5,004,300

Standard Form (Scientific Notation) numbers are written as a decimal (n.m) such that there is [normally] only one digit (n) to the left of the decimal point, and the rest of the number (m) to the right (with a possible limit). If there is only a single digit in the whole number then the value on the right is a zero (n.0).

To show that the value shown has shifted its decimal point position, the number of decimal positions shifted is shown after the number as a 10’s multiplied to the power of the number of positions shifted.

e.g., 102 = 102.0 = 1.02 (decimal point shifted left two places. If smallest digit is 0 then ignore it UNLESS it’s the ONLY digit!!)

1.02*10^2(2 Decimal shift to the left)

1.02*10^2

So, for the number asked in the question:

5,004,300 = 5,004,300.0

Left shift 6 times to largest digit = 5.004300

5.004300 (show the shift multiplier: 10^6)

5.004300*10^6

Miles traveled, miles to go, fill in the “?”
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The blank is 170

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio from miles traveled to miles to go is 1:-1

520-0=520

520-100=420

520-200=320

520-350=170

520-520=0

Determine the period.​
maks197457 [2]
3

The period is the amount it time it takes to make one complete cycle. If we start at 0 for simplicity sake, the graph is at its maximum point. It reaches its maximum point again at 3, this is one complete cycle and thus the period is 3.
