Answer:

  4432

Step-by-step explanation:

Population growth is generally expressed as a percentage of the current population. That means the growth is exponential, and the equation describing it will be ...

  population = (initial value) × (growth factor)^t . . . . . where t is in years

where the growth factor is ...

  growth factor = 1 +(growth rate)

__

For the given initial value of 3000 and the growth rate of 5%, the equation is ...

  population = 3000(1.05^t)

When t=8, the value is ...

  population = 3000(1.05^8) ≈ 3000(1.477455) ≈4432.4

The population will be about 4432 in 8 years.

Determine whether the ordered pair (1, 1) is a solution of the inequality. y ≤ -3x+1
solong [7]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:  \textsf{(1, 1) is NOT a solution of the inequality}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given:  y \le-3x + 1

Find:  \textsf{Determine if (1, 1) is a solution of the inequality}

Solution:  In order to determine if (1, 1) is a solution we need to plug in 1 for the x values and 1 for the y values and see if the equation evaluated to true.

<u>Plug in the values</u>

  • y \le-3x + 1
  • 1 \le-3(1) + 1

<u>Simplify</u>

  • 1 \le-3 + 1
  • 1 \le-2

As we can see the expression states that 1 is less than or equal to -2 which is false therefore (1, 1) is NOT a solution of the inequality.
