Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
A 2.5 % decrease means 97.5 % remains (.975)
population = 10800 ( .975) ^n where n = years past 2002
in 2020 n = 18
10800 (.975)^18 = 6847 people
if you add 2 negatives together you get a smaller number,(farther away from zero) therefore, -3+(-1)= -4
First of all, 2^n and 3^n are exponentials with different bases, and thus their sum cannot be simplified beyond 2^n + 3^n. In other words, these two functions cannot be combined ino one function (such as 4^n).
You may gain much more insight by graphing 2^n, 3^n and 4^n to determine whether there is truth in the given statement or not.
Here, to find the average rate of change, you would simply divide 270 by 63. And when that is done, you would get a long decimal. 4.285714285714286
And since you obviously can't put in such a long decimal as your answer, you would round it instead. Once rounded, you would end up with 4.29 (because the number after 8 is five, which rounds up, which would turn the 8 to 9.)
5 Cent
because dollar more right?
so 10 cent left then divide half and half
