Answer:
1) 20%
2) Choice a.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 
is the population initially.
is the population after a year.
represents the population increase factor.
So let's evaluate that fraction:
0.2=20%
2) Let's figure out the population growth in terms of months instead of years.
We want t to represent months.
A full year is 12 months, in a full year we have that 
So we want a new P such that 
since 12 months equals a year.
Let's look at the functions given to see which gives us this:
a) 
b) 
c) 
d) 
So a is the function we want.
Also another way to look at this:
where 
is in years.
where is in months.
And 
10/12 and 3/12 6 x 2=12, what you do to the bottom you do to the top 5 x 2= 10 4 x 3=12, what you to the bottom you do to the top 1 x 3=3
Answer:
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the number of containers
y is the total cost
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
For the cost of both companies to be the same, then
24x + 42 = 28x + 25
28x - 24x = 42 - 25
4x = 17
x = 4.25
Mr Lycan would have to order about 4 containers so the cost would be the same from each company
Answer:
38 and 39
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two integers are consecutive, then one is one larger than the other. Therefore, lets call them x and x+1. We can now set up the following equation:
x+(x+1)=77
2x+1=77
2x=76
x=38
x+1=39
Hope this helps!
