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.

Hi there!

A recipe for cake needs 3/4 of a cup of milk.
We are making 1/2 of the recipe, which means we also need half of the milk needed for the total recipe. Therefore, we can multiply 1/2 (half of the recipe) by 3/4 (the total amount of cups of milk needed for the total recipe).

\frac{1}{2} \times  \frac{3}{4} =  \frac{3  \times 1 }{2 \times 4} =  \frac{3}{8}
Hence, we need 3/8 cups of milk
