Answer: 20,532

Step-by-step explanation:

17,400(.02)=348

17,400+3132=20,532

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential growth function of the form:

y=ab^x where a is the initial population and b is the growth rate. This could also be written as

y=a(1+r)^x which is a bit more accurate. We'll use that one. r is the percent growth: 2% for us.

Filling in the formula:

y=17400(1+.02)^x and then simplifying:

y=17400(1.02)^x

That's the model for this population. Filling in any number of years for x will give you the population y. Our time is 9 years:

y=17400(1.02)^9

Take care of the exponents first, giving us:

y=17400(1.195092569) and then multiply to get

y = 20,794.6 or 20,794 people (since you can't have 6/10 of a person)

1000:300:750 simplified
atroni [7]

Answer: 40:12:30

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this, look for a common divisible number, which is 25

Then divide all through by 25

1000/25:300/25:750/25

=40:12:30

I hope this helps

What is the simplified form of the fifth root of x to the fourth power times the fifth root of x to the fourth power?
Ray Of Light [21]
\bf \sqrt[5]{x^4}\cdot \sqrt[5]{x^4}\implies \sqrt[5]{x^4\cdot x^4}\implies \sqrt[5]{x^{4+4}}\implies \sqrt[5]{x^8}\implies \sqrt[5]{x^{5+3}}
\\\\\\
\sqrt[5]{x^5\cdot  x^3}\implies x\sqrt[5]{x^3}

HELP! PLEASE!
lidiya [134]

Answer:

The unit price is the cost per unit of an item or the cost/price for each item.

1) 4$ per pound. By simplifying the proportion (constant ratio) between the cost, and the pounds of apples. 3 pounds of apples cost 12$ → 3/3 pounds of apples cost 12/3$ → 4 dollars for every pound.

2) 2$ per pound. By evaluating the rate of change (change in the y over x or dependent variable over independent) in the equation: y = 2x. y is the cost in dollars, and x is the pounds of apples. So there are 2 pounds (weight) of apples for every dollar.

3) 3$ per pound. Given a graph with a y scaled by 3, and an x scaled by 1 with a graph y = x or 1 unit up for every unit right. This must be equivalent to y = 3x. Where y is labeled as the cost in dollars, and x as the weight in pounds. So there are 3 dollars for every pound of apples.

4) Store B. Because 2 is less than 3 which is less than 4.
