In July 2005, the internet was linked by a global network of about 353 million host computers. The number of host computers has

been growing approximately exponentially and was about 37.1 million in July 1998. (a) Find a formula for the number, N, of internet host computers (in millions of computers) as an exponential function of t, the number of years since July 1998, using the continuous exponential model N ( t )

Answer:

N(t) = 37.1(1.38)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential function:

An exponential function has the following format:

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^t

In which N(0) is the initial value and r is the rate of change, as a decimal.

37.1 million in July 1998

This means that N(0) = 37.1

So

N(t) = 37.1(1+r)^t

In July 2005, the internet was linked by a global network of about 353 million host computers.

This is 2005 - 1998 = 7 years, so N(7) = 353. We use this to find r.

N(t) = 37.1(1+r)^t

353 = 37.1(1+r)^7

(1+r)^7 = \frac{353}{37.1}

\sqrt[7]{(1+r)^7} = \sqrt[7]{\frac{353}{37.1}}

1 + r = (\frac{353}{37.1})^{\frac{1}{7}}

1 + r = 1.38

The formula is:

N(t) = 37.1(1.38)^t

Please help me out with this problem!!!
Ronch [10]

Answer:

y = 3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is linear and expressed in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given (0, - 2 ) then c = - 2

Calculate the multiplier using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1,1) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{1+2}{1-0} = 3, hence

y = 3x - 2 ← equation relating x and y

In parallelogram DEFG, DH equals X +3, HF equals 3Y, GH equals 2X -5 and HE equals 5Y plus to find the values of X and Y
daser333 [38]

The values of X and Y are 30 and 11 respectively

<h3>How to determine the values of X and Y?</h3>

The figure that represents the complete question is added as an attachment

The given parameters are:

DH = X +3

HF  = 3Y

GH = 2X -5

HE = 5Y

From the attached parallelogram, we have:

DH = HF

GH = HE

Substitute the known values in the above equation

X + 3 = 3Y

2X - 5 = 5Y

Make X the subject in X + 3 = 3Y

X = 3Y - 3

Substitute X = 3Y - 3 in 2X - 5 = 5Y

2(3Y - 3) - 5 = 5Y

Expand

6Y - 6 - 5 = 5Y

Evaluate the like terms

Y = 11

Substitute Y = 11 in X = 3Y - 3

X = 3*11 - 3

Evaluate

X = 30

Hence, the values of X and Y are 30 and 11 respectively
