What is the length of segment AB to the nearest tenth?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

4.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between 2 points= sqrt [(x-x)^2 + (y-y)^2

A= -4,2) and B= (1,4)

d = sqrt[(-4-1)^2 + (2-4)^2]

= sqrt (25+4)

= sqrt29

= 4.9 units

The most recent census for a city indicated that there were 919,716 residents. The population of the city is expected to increas
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1,474,951.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a population that increases by a constant percentage, we can model the population's growth using the exponential model.

P(t)=P_o(1+r)^t,$ where \left\{\begin{array}{lll}P_o=$Initial Population\\r$=Growth rate\\$t=time (in years)\end{array}\right\\P_o=919,716\\r=3.7\%=0.037\\$t=13 years

Therefore, the population of the city in 13 years time will be:

P(t)=919,716(1+0.037)^{13}\\\\=919,716(1.037)^{13}\\\\=1,474,950.9\\\\\approx 1,474,951

The population be at that time will be approximately 1,474,951.

Identify the pattern and find the next number in the pattern. 0.8, 3.2 12.851.2
Savatey [412]
For this case we have the following sequence:
 0.8
 3.2
 12.8
 51.2
 This sequence can be written as:
 0.8 = 0.2 * 4 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 1
 3.2 = 0.2 * 16 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 2
 12.8 = 0.2 * 64 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 3
 51.2 = 0.2 * 256 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 4
 Therefore, we have that the generic expression for this case is:
 an = 0.2 * 4 ^ n
 Then, the next number is then:
 a5 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 5 = 0.2 * 1024 = 204.8
 answer
 the next number in the pattern is 204.8
