To decrease this amount by 15% we must first find out what is 15% percent.
We can do that by multiplying the decimal of 15% by 120
15% = 0.15
0.15 x 120 = 18
So 18 is 15% of 120.
Wait! that's not the answer. We are asked to decrease by 15%
So 120 - 18 = 102
Your answer is £102
We may have this planned like this:
two years is 8 quarters
<span>Assuming simple interest, </span>
You will use the formula
<span>A = P(1+rt) </span>
<span>= 400(1+8*.03) </span>
<span>= 496
</span>I think this is the answer:) Hope it helps a lot
2. 2 increasing
3. Y=-x +9 decreasing
4. 2 increasing
5. 6 increasing
6. Y=-3x+1 decreasing
To find them it's y=mx+b
b=the y intercept
m=the slope
Answer:
(a) P(t) = 12100*(1.04^t)
(b) in 2008, estimate of population is 16560 (to the nearest integer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Population in 2000, P(0) = 12100
Growth rate = 4% each year
(a) function model for the t year after 2000 (exponential model)
P(t) = 12100*(1.04^t)
(b) for 2008,
P(2008-2000)
= P(8)
= 12100*(1.04^8)
= 12100 * 1.368569
= 16559.7
= 16560 (nearest integer)
