Answer:

7.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth/decay is modeled as:

A = P(1+r)^t

where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate, and t is time.

If t = 0 represents 2015, and t = 2 represents 2017, then:

26000 = P(1+r)^0

30000 = P(1+r)^2

(1+r)^0 = 1, so P = 26000.  Substituting:

30000 = 26000(1+r)^2

1.154 = (1+r)^2

1.074 = 1+r

r = 0.074

The rate of increase is 7.4%.

Ronch [10]

we are given two points as

(1.0, 2.0) and (1.0, 5.0)

so,

(x1, y1)= (1.0 , 2.0)

(x2, y2)= (1.0 , 5.0)

x1=1 , y1=2

x2=1 , y2=5

now, we can use distance formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

now, we can plug values

and we get

d=\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(5-2)^2}

d=\sqrt{(0)^2+(3)^2}

d=\sqrt{(3)^2}

d=3

so, distance between points is 3...........Answer

I got an equation
liberstina [14]

Answer:

X=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, you are right.

The given equation is

X+U=25

If U=10, then we substitute to obtain:

X+10=25

Subtract 10 from both sides to get:

X=25-10

Simplify to get:

X=15
