Answer:
the amount increased by approximatley 12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t=number of years since 1991.
Then
P(t)=147 e^(kt) ... in millions
P(0)=147 e^(0)=147
P(7)=147 e^(7k)=153
e^(7k)=(153/147)
take ln both sides
ln(e^(7k))=ln(153/147)
7k=0.0400 => k=0.005715
Year 2017=>t=2017-1991=26
P(26)=147e^(26*.005715)=170.55
Answer: in 2017, the projected population is 170.55 millions.
Answer:
d. linear; $25/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
From looking at the graph, we have that renting for 2 hours costs $50, for 4 hours costs $100, for 6 hours costs $150, and for 8 hours costs $200. To find out whether the quantities described in the table are linear, we have to see if there is a constant rate of change of price.
For hour 2 to hour 4, we can see that the price increases by $50. This is the same for hour 4 to hour 6 and hour 6 to hour 8. For every 2 hour time interval, the price increases by $50. Therefore, there is a constant rate of change and the quantities described in the table are linear.
Now we have to find the constant rate of change per hour. We know that the price increases by $50 every 2 hours, so, by dividing both the hours and price increase by 2, the price increases by $25 per hour. So the constant rate of change is $25/hour.
Linear. $25/hour
