Answer:
8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth factor per year is 1.012, so in 500 years is ...
1.012^500
The number of doublings is the solution to ...
2^n = 1.012^500
Taking logarithms, we have ...
n·log(2) = 500·log(1.012)
n = 500·log(1.012)/log(2) ≈ 8.6046
About 8.6 doublings will take place in 500 years.
Answer:
a) 1/2
b) 250
Step-by-step explanation:
The start of the question doesn't matter entirely, although is interesting to read. What we are trying to do is find the value for 
such that 
is maximized. Once we have that , we can easily find the answer to part b.
Finding the value that maximizes is the same as finding the value that maximizes 
, just on a smaller scale. So, we really want to maximize . To do this, we will do a trick called completing the square.
.
Because there is a negative sign in front of the big squared term, combined with the fact that a square is always positive, means we need to find the value of such that the inner part of the square term is equal to 
.
.
So, the answer to part a is 
.
We can then plug 
into the equation for p to find the answer to part b.
.
So, the answer to part b is 
.
And we're done!
Answer:
The 2 numbers are 32 and 65.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 97 where x and y are the 2 numbers.
x = 2y + 1
Substituting for x in the first equation:
2y + 1 + y = 97
3y = 96
y = 32.
So x = 2y + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65.
