Answer:

  17.34 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation you wrote in the first part of the problem can be solved for the value of t that makes the population be 5000.

  P(t)=\dfrac{10000}{1+11.5e^{-0.1408614477t}}

Setting this equal to 5000 and multiplying by the denominator, we have ...

  5000=\dfrac{10000}{1+11.5e^{-0.1408614477t}}\\\\5000+57500e^{-0.1408614477t}=10000\\\\e^{-0.1408614477t}=\dfrac{5000}{57500}\qquad\text{subtract 5000, divide by 57500}\\\\-0.1408614477t = \ln{\dfrac{1}{11.5}}=-\ln(11.5)\qquad\text{take logs}\\\\t=\dfrac{\ln(11.5)}{0.1408614477}\approx17.3386

For the population to reach 5000, it will take about 17.34 years.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The value -0.14086... is the natural log of the ratio 1818/2093. This means the "exact answer" is ln(11.5)/(ln(2093) -ln(1818)), an irrational number.

A graphing calculator can answer the question easily.

The math club has 16 members 2 girls and 14 boys what is the ratio of girls to boys in the math club
Montano1993 [528]
Hi there,

There are 16 members in a math club such as 2 girls and 14 boys in a math club.

The ratio would be:

1:7

Divide both terms by 2.
2 ÷ 2 = 1
14 ÷ 2 = 7

Therefore:
2 : 14 = 1 : 7

How many gallons of a 30% salt solution must be added to 40 gallons of a 12% salt solution to obtain a 20% solution?
Sati [7]
Let’s call the number of gallons of 30% solution “x”. If we mix together 40 gallons and x gallons of solution, we’re going to come out with a total of 40 + x gallons of that 20% solution. Mathematically, this is

40(12%) + x(30%) = (40 + x)(20%)

With the percents as decimals:

40(0.12) + x(0.3) = (40 + x)(0.2)

Simplifying, we have:

4.8 + 0.3x = 8 + 0.2x

Collecting the x terms on one side and the constants on the other:

0.1x = 3.2

And multiplying both sides by 10 to find x:

x = 32

So, you’ll need 32 gallons of 30% solution to yield 40 + 32 = 72 gallons of 20% solution.
