Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x,y) be midpoint of P(3,4) & Q(5,−2)

Midpoint formula for two points (a,b) and (c,d) is

(x,y) =(

a+c

b+d

3+5

4−2

∴ (x,y)=(4,1)

Given the data shown below, which of the following is the best prediction for

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The best prediction for the number of years it will take for the population to reach 200,000 is 9.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Year Population

1 11,920

2 16,800

3 23,300

4 33,000

5 45,750

6 64,000

$y_1 =A _0 e ^{kt _1}\\y_2 = A_0 e^{k t_2}\\(t_1,y_1)=(1,11920)\\(t_2,y_2)=(2,16800)$

Substitute the values

$11920=A _0 e ^{k} ---1\\16800 = A_0 e^{2k} ---2$

Divide 1 and 2

$\frac{11920}{16800}=\frac{e^k}{e^{2k}}\\\frac{11920}{16800}=e^{k-2k}\\ln(\frac{11920}{16800})=-k\\k=-1 ln(\frac{11920}{16800})\\k=0.3432\\A_0=y_1 e^{-k t_1}\\A_0=11920 e^{-0.3432}\\A_0=8457.5238$

The exponential function that passes through the points (1, 11920) and (2, 16800) is $y=8457.5238 e^{0.3432t}$

Now we are supposed to find the best prediction for the number of years it will take for the population to reach 200,000

$200000=8457.5238 e^{0.3432t}$

$\frac{200000}{8457.5238}=e^{0.3432t}$

$ln(\frac{200000}{8457.5238})=0.3432t$

t = 9.41

Hence the best prediction for the number of years it will take for the population to reach 200,000 is 9.41

This doesn’t make sense
You say 28 did biology, but then 15 did maths and biology, and 16 did physics and biology
15 + 16 is 31 ??
