Answer: a. 
b. The population in 2032 will be 8292.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential growth equation:
, where a = initial value , r = growth rate, x = time period
Given: a = 5054 , r= 0.02
a. Required exponential growth function: 

b. For 2032, x= 25


The population in 2032 will be 8292.
It is less than. Any negative number compared to a positive number will be less than.
Given:
For every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew.
Altogether, 12 seeds grew.
To find:
The number of total seeds planted by Lara.
Solution:
It is given that for every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew. It means the ratio of total seeds planted to seeds grew is 3:2.
Altogether, 12 seeds grew.
Let x be the number of total seeds planted by Lara. Then,




Therefore, the total number of seeds planter by Lara is 18.
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
There are four 4 by 3 rectangles, so I did 4x3 and got 12, then multiplied by 4 to get 48. There are also two 4 by 4 squares, so 4x4=16 and 16x2=32
32+48=80
Answer:
B - the expression given is 2 timex as large at (2,230 + 829)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 2 by each set of numbers then add.
2X 2230 = 4460
2x829 = 1658
Add them together
4460+1658 = 6118
