We know it begins at 100. If we use a*b^t, then 100 is our a. 100*b^t. We can now divide 480 by 100. This is 4.8. 4.8 is b. f(t) = 100(4.8)^t

City Community College plans to increase its enrollment capacity to keep up with an increasing number of student applicants. The

aivan3 [116]

The given above may be modeled by the arithmetic sequence with initial value (I) 2200 and common difference (d) of 70. The number of applicants every year can be written by the equation,
at = a1 + (n - 1) x d
From the given above, n is equal to 4. This corresponds to the term which is 3 years from now.
at = 2200 + (4 - 1) x 70 = 2410
Thus, the enrollment capacity would be 2410 students.

The points R(−4, −1) and S(2, −5) are two vertices of right triangle RST. The hypotenuse of the triangle is RS.

Nostrana [21]

If RS is the hypotenuse of the triangle RST and point T is in Quadrant 3, then point T must be the intersection of the lines: x = - 4 and y = - 5.
Therefore, the coordinates of point T are ( x, y ) = ( - 4, - 5 )
Answer:
T ( - 4, - 5 )
