Midpoint = ( x1 + x2)/2, (y1+ y2)/2
Midpoint = (10 +6)/2, (6+10)/2
Midpoint = (8,8)
Answer:
about 78 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Population
y =ab^t where a is the initial population and b is 1+the percent of increase
t is in years
y = 2000000(1+.04)^t
y = 2000000(1.04)^t
Food
y = a+bt where a is the initial population and b is constant increase
t is in years
b = .5 million = 500000
y = 4000000 +500000t
We need to set these equal and solve for t to determine when food shortage will occur
2000000(1.04)^t= 4000000 +500000t
Using graphing technology, (see attached graph The y axis is in millions of years), where these two lines intersect is the year where food shortages start.
t≈78 years
Answer:
y =20
Step-by-step explanation:
5(y+4)=6y
Distribute
5y +20 = 6y
Subtract 5y from each side
5y-5y+20=6y-5y
20 =y
