Answer:
common ratio: 1.155
rate of growth: 15.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The model for exponential growth of population P looks like: 
where
is the population at time "t",
is the initial (starting) population
is the common ratio,
and
is the rate of growth
Therefore, in our case we can replace specific values in this expression (including population after 12 years, and initial population), and solve for the unknown common ratio and its related rate of growth:
![P(t)=P_i(1+r)^t\\13000=2300*(1+r)^{12}\\\frac{13000}{2300} = (1+r)^12\\\frac{130}{23} = (1+r)^{12}\\1+r=\sqrt[12]{\frac{130}{23} } =1.155273\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28t%29%3DP_i%281%2Br%29%5Et%5C%5C13000%3D2300%2A%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13000%7D%7B2300%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E12%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%3D%20%281%2Br%29%5E%7B12%7D%5C%5C1%2Br%3D%5Csqrt%5B12%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B130%7D%7B23%7D%20%7D%20%3D1.155273%5C%5C)
This (1+r) is the common ratio, that we are asked to round to the nearest thousandth, so we use: 1.155
We are also asked to find the rate of increase (r), and to express it in percent form. Therefore we use the last equation shown above to solve for "r" and express tin percent form:

So, this number in percent form (and rounded to the nearest tenth as requested) is: 15.5 %
<u>ANSWER</u>
The common ratio is -3.
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
In general, the common ratio of a Geometric Sequence is given by:

We can find the common ratio using any two consecutive terms of the geometric sequence by dividing the subsequent term by the previous term.
The given sequence is -2,6,-18,54
Using the first two terms the common ratio is

We could also used the second and third terms to get

and so on and so forth.
Therefore the common ratio is -3.
Answer: $28,752
Explanation:
The<u> definition of bimonthly</u> is an event that happens once in two months.
represents "two", while
represents "event that happens by month.
Given that Glenda receives a salary of <u>$4,792 bi-monthly</u>, we are required to find the earnings per year.
There are <u>12 months in each year</u>, and if the given value is a 2-month value, then we shall divide 12 by 2 to find that there is in total 6 of the 2-month value.

Finally, we shall <u>multiply the total number with the salary</u>, which will be $4,792 times 6.

Hope this helps!! :)
Please let me know if you have any questions
KX = x+4 so solve for k.
Divide both sides of the equation by x and you get K=4.
Plug it in, and you get (4)(7)=28
Your answer is 28.
Answer:
11(4h-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest known common factor of 44h and 33 is 11. So using the distributive property, I got 11(4h-3)
