Answer: the expected population of the city in 30 years is 5470781
Step-by-step explanation:
The population growth is exponential. The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
A = P(1 + r)^t
Where
A represents the population after t years.
t represents the number of years.
P represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
P = 3.5 × 10^6
r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015
t = 30 years
Therefore,
A = 3.5 × 10^6(1 + 0.015)^30
A = 3.5 × 10^6(1.015)^30
A = 5470781

Answer: 19 dimes</h3>
=================================================
Work Shown:
d = number of dimes
q = 32-d = number of quarters
$5.15 = 515 cents
10d+25q = 515
10d+25(32-d) = 515
10d+800-25d = 515
-15d+800 = 515
-15d = 515-800
-15d = -285
d = -285/(-15)
d = 19
There are 19 dimes. You can stop here if you want.
q = 32-d = 32-19 = 13
There are 13 quarters
-------------------------------
Check:
1 dime = 10 cents
19 dimes = 19*10 = 190 cents
1 quarter = 25 cents
13 quarters = 13*25 = 325 cents
total value = 190 cents + 325 cents = 515 cents = $5.15
The answer is confirmed.
Divide 1000 by 8 which would give you 125. So they have 125 cans and they need to collect 8 times as many, meaning 8 times of what they have which is 125. And 125 times 8 is equal to 1000. YOU'RE WELCOME :D
