Answer:

6.25 Years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find 8% of 40,000 which is 3,200 which represents how much the initial amount increases per year.

Next, find out how much you need to increase by subtracting 40,000 from 60,000 which means you need 20,000 more dollars.

Next, divide how much money you need by how much it increases to see how many years it will take.

20,000 divided by 3,200 is 6.25

$f(x) = -x^2-7x-6$

As $x \to \pm \infty$ , $y \to - \infty$ .

This can be easily verified by looking at the graph (graph of a quadratic equation).

The growth of a population is not linear, it's exponential.

31.

Exponential growth > polynomial, so $y = 3^x$ .

35.

$V(t) = 30\cdot (25)^{\frac{t}{20}}$

The question is asking V(t) for t = 40.

$V(40) = 30\cdot (25)^{\frac{40}{20}} \\~\\V(40) = 30\cdot 25^2 \\~\\V(40) = 30\cdot 625 \\~\\V(40) = 18750$

36.

The point of symmetry of a quadratic equation $y = ax^2+bx+c$ is at its vertice:

$V_x = \dfrac{-b}{2a}$

$V_x = \dfrac{6}{2}$

$V_x = 3$

The line is x= 3.

Find the center and radius of the circle. Show all work

Alona [7]

The center is (-1, -2) and the radius of the circle is 5.

<h3>What is the equation of a circle?</h3>

The circle equation formula refers to the equation of a circle which represents the center-radius form of the circle.

A circle can be represented as;

$\rm (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Where; h and k are the center of the circle r is the radius of the circle.

The given equation of the circle is;

$\rm (x+1)^2+(y+2)^2=25$

Comparing both the equations;

$\rm (x+1)^2+(y+2)^2=25\\\\\rm (x+1)^2+(y+2)^2=5^2\\\\h = -1\\\\k = -2\\\\r^2=5^2\\\\r=5$

Hence, the center is (-1, -2) and the radius of the circle is 5.

A triangle is graphed in the coordinate plane. The vertices of the triangle have coordinates (–3, 1), (1, 1), and (1, –2). What

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle is $12\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

$A(-3,1),B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

we know that

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

$P=AB+BC+AC$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance AB

$A(-3,1),B(1,1)$

substitute in the formula

$AB=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AB=4\ units$

step 2

Find the distance BC

$B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$BC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1-1)^{2}}$

$BC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$BC=3\ units$

step 3

Find the distance AC

$A(-3,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$AC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AC=5\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=AB+BC+AC$

substitute the values

$P=4+3+5=12\ units$
