Answer:

$1,418.03

Step-by-step explanation:

first set up an equation- since we know that 6.1% of x(price of the guitar) is $86.50, we can set up the equation: 0.061x = 86.50

0.061x = 86.50 (divide each side by 0.061 to get x by itself)

x = 1418.03279 (round to the nearest cent)

x = 1,418.03

A model for the population in a small community after t years is given by P(t)=P0e^kt.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

$\bf \textit{Amount of Population Growth}\\\\
A=Ie^{rt}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\\
r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\\
\end{cases}$

a)

so, if the population doubled in 5 years, that means t = 5. So say, if we use an amount for "i" or P in your case, to be 1, then after 5 years it'd be 2, and thus i = 1 and A = 2, let's find "r" or "k" in your equation.

$\bf \textit{Amount of Population Growth}\\\\
A=Ie^{rt}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &2\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &5\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
2=1\cdot e^{5r}\implies 2=e^{5r}\implies ln(2)=ln(e^{5r})\implies ln(2)=5r
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{ln(2)}{5}=r}\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{A=e^{\frac{ln(2)}{5}\cdot t}} \\\\\\
\textit{how long to tripling?}\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=3\\
I=1
\end{cases}\implies 3=1\cdot e^{\frac{ln(2)}{5}\cdot t}$

$\bf 3=e^{\frac{ln(2)}{5}\cdot t}\implies ln(3)=ln\left( e^{\frac{ln(2)}{5}\cdot t} \right)\implies ln(3)=\cfrac{ln(2)}{5} t
\\\\\\
\cfrac{5ln(3)}{ln(2)}=t\implies 7.9\approx t$

b)

A = 10,000, t = 3

$\bf \begin{cases}
A=10000\\
t=3
\end{cases}\implies 10000=Ie^{\frac{ln(2)}{5}\cdot 3}\implies \cfrac{10000}{e^{\frac{3ln(2)}{5}}}=I
\\\\\\
6597.53955 \approx I$

plz help !! write two real world situations that you can model using the exponential function f(x)=2 to the power of x

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Two real world situations are shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of a certain bacteria is 1 thousand and the population doubles in each hour. So, population of bacteria (in thousands) after x hours is

$f(x)=1(2)^x$
