Mathematics

Valentin [98]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 6 = 3x - 2

then subtract the 6 from both sides of the equation

2x = 3x - 8

then subtract the 3x from both sides of the equation

- 1x =  - 8

then divide each side by -1

x = 8

Question 16 (Essay Worth 7 points)<br><br> Verify the identity.<br><br> tan (x + π/2) = -cot x
Rus_ich [418]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that tan=sin/cos, so tan(x+π/2)=

\frac{sin(x+pi/2)}{cos(x+pi/2)}

Then, we know that sin(u+v)=sin(u)cos(v)+cos(u)sin(v),

so our equation is then

\frac{sin(x)cos(\pi/2)+cos(x)sin(\pi/2)}{cos(x+\pi/2)}  = \frac{cos(x)}{cos(x+\pi/2) }

Then, cos(u+v)=cos(u)cos(v)-sin(u)sin(v), so our expression is then

\frac{cos(x)}{cos(x)cos(\pi/2)-sin(x)sin(\pi/2)} = \frac{cos(x)}{-sin(x)} = -cot(x)

In 3 apples cost 48¢ , how many dozen apples can be bougth for $3.84?
Law Incorporation [45]

1 dozen = 12 apples.

3 apples cost 0.48, multiply that by 4 to get the price of 1 dozen.

0.48 x 4 = $1.92 per dozen.


Divide the total you can spend ( 3.84) by cost per dozen:


3.48 / 1.92 = 2


You can buy 2 dozen.

The function y = 58. 7(1. 03)^t gives a country’s population, y (in millions), where t is the number of years since January 1994
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Approximate population ≈ 74.36 million.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem involves modeling of an exponential growth or decay function of a population.      

<h2>Definition:</h2>
  • Exponential growth ( <em>relative growth </em>) occurs when a population grows or <u><em>increases</em></u> exponentially by the same factor, over the same amount of time.  
  • Exponential decay occurs when a population <u><em>decreases</em></u> continuously by a <em>constant factor</em>, over the same amount of time.

We can model the exponential growth of a population using the following Exponential Growth Model:

  • ⇒   \displaystyle\mathsf{P(t)\:=\:P_0 (1\:+\:r)^t }

Where:

  • P( <em>t</em> ) = population after "<em>t</em><em>"  </em>years
  • <em>P₀ </em>= initial population
  • <em>r</em> = relative growth rate; <u><em>positive "r" value</em></u><em> </em>means that the population is increasing; <u><em>negative "r" value</em></u> implies that the population is decreasing.
  • <em>t </em>= time (typically in <em>years</em>)

<h2>Solution:</h2>

Based from the given equation, \displaystyle\mathsf{y\:=\:58.7(1.03)^t } , we can infer that:

⇒   \displaystyle\mathsf{P(t)\:=\:P_0 (1\:+\:r)^t } or  \displaystyle\mathsf{y\:=\:P_0 (1\:+\:r)^t }

Where:

  • P( <em>t</em> ) or <em>y</em> = population after "<em>t"  </em>years
  • <em>P₀ </em>= initial population  = 58.7
  • <em>r</em> = relative growth rate = 0.03 or 3% = the population is <em>increasing</em> (exponential growth).
  • <em>t </em>= time (typically in <em>years</em>) = 8 years (difference between January 2002 and January 1994).

Step 1: Substitute the given values into the Exponential Growth Model formula, and solve for P( t ) :

\displaystyle\mathsf{P(t)\:=\:P_0 (1\:+\:r)^t }

⇒   \displaystyle\mathsf{P(8)\:=\:58.7 (1\:+\:.03)^8 }

Step 2: Follow the order of operations, <u><em>addition</em></u> inside the parenthesis:

⇒   \displaystyle\mathsf{P(8)\:=\:58.7 (1.03)^8 }

Step 3: Follow the order of operations, applying the <u><em>exponent</em></u> into the parenthesis (do not round off the digits inside the parenthesis):

⇒  \displaystyle\mathsf{P(8)\:=\:58.7 (1.266770081) }  

Step 4: Follow the order of operations, <u><em>multiplying</em></u>  58.7 (<em>P₀</em>) into the parenthesis:

⇒  \displaystyle\mathsf{P(8)\:\approx \:74.35940378\quad or \quad 74.36\:\:million}

<h2>Final Answer:</h2>

Therefore, the approximate population of the country in January 2002 is 74.36 million.
