Answer:

5304 people

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have a population of 5000 people and it grows 3% per year. This problem wants us to find how much it will grow to at the end of 2 years.

With this, we have values that follow:

The formula: f(t) = a(1 + r)^t

a = 5000

r = 0.03

t = 2

Plugging it the values in the formula,

f(2) = 5000(1 + 0.03)^2

     = 5000(1.03)^2

     = 5304.5

Since there can't be a half person, we will have to reduce it down to 5304

f(2) = 5304

Let me know in the comments if you have any questions! If you could mark this answer as brainliest, I would very much appreciate it

The population would be 5300 at the end of two years because 3% of 5000 is 150 so 150x2=300. 5000+300=5300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a1 = 6

an =  3 + 2(an-1),

Substitute n = 2 into the formula

a2 = 3 + 2(a1)

a2 = 3 + 2(6)

a2 = 3+12

a2 = 15

Hence the second term of the sequence is 15

laiz [17]
Since 52% is the same as 52/100, we can multiply 875 by 52/100 in order to find the green buttons. 
52/100(875) = 455

Work Out The Value of X
melomori [17]

Answer:

71°

Step-by-step explanation:

3x° + (x - 11)° + (2x - 55)° = 360°

3x + x - 11 + 2x - 55 = 360°

6x - 66 = 360°

6x = 360° + 66°

6x = 426°

x = 71°
