The population of a small town in Alabama is 382 people. If the growth rate is 0.7%, what will its population be in 30 years?

Formula for growth:

y = initial • (percent growth + 1)^time/frequency of growth

So, since initial population is 382

Percent growth is 0.007

The time is 30 years

And it goes it by .07% every 1 year,

y = 382 • (1.007)^30/1

y= 470.9203732 people

Since we can’t have 0.9 of a person, the population after 30 years will be 470 people.

Solve this problem out

Option C

When $(2x - 3)^2$ is subtracted from $5x^2$ then the result is $x^2 + 12x - 9$

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that $(2x - 3)^2$ is subtracted from $5x^2$

We have to find the result

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that tells us the difference between two numbers.

When "a" is subtracted from "b", we write in mathematical expression as "b - a"

So $(2x - 3)^2$ is subtracted from $5x^2$ is written mathematically as:

$\rightarrow 5x^2 - (2x - 3)^2$

<em><u>Expanding the above expression using algebraic identity:</u></em>

$(a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2$

$\rightarrow 5x^2 - ((2x)^2 -2(2x)(3) + (3)^2)\\\\\rightarrow 5x^2 - (4x^2 - 12x + 9)$

Multiplying the nnegative sign with terms inside bracket

<em><u>There are two simple rules to remember: </u></em>

When you multiply a negative number by a positive number then the product is always negative.

When you multiply two negative numbers or two positive numbers then the product is always positive.

$\rightarrow 5x^2 - (4x^2 - 12x + 9)\\\\\rightarrow 5x^2 - 4x^2 + 12x -9\\\\\rightarrow x^2 + 12x - 9$

Hence the result is: $x^2 + 12x - 9$
