Answer:
A. 7,348
Step-by-step explanation:
P = le^kt
intitial population = 500
time = 4 hrs
end population = 3,000
So we have all these variables and we need to solve for what the end population will be if we change the time to 6 hours. First, we need to find the rate of the growth(k) so we can plug it back in. The given formula shows a exponencial growth formula. (A = Pe^rt) A is end amount, P is start amount, e is a constant that you can probably find on your graphing calculator, r is the rate, and t is time.
A = Pe^rt
3,000 = 500e^r4
now we can solve for r
divide both sides by 500
6 = e^r4
now because the variable is in the exponent, we have to use a log

ln(6) = 4r
we can plug the log into a calculator to get
1.79 = 4r
divide both sides by 4
r = .448
now lets plug it back in
A = 500e^(.448)(6 hrs)
A = 7351.12
This is closest to answer A. 7,348
Answer:
both equations reduce to y = -1/3x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, subtract the term not containing y and divide by the coefficient of y.
1. 6y = -2x -12 . . . . 12 was subtracted from both sides
y = -1/3x -2 . . . . . . the equation was divided by 6
__
2. 3y = -x -6 . . . . . . x was subtracted from both sides
y = -1/3x -2 . . . . . the equation was divided by 3
Answer: 40%
=========================================
Work Shown:
"given that it's a senior" is an important piece of info that tells us to only focus on the "seniors" column. The word "given" is an indication that we know this information 100%
There are 5 seniors (2+3 = 5) and 2 of them are male. So 2/5 = 0.40 = 40% of the seniors are male. The probability of selecting a male, if we know this person is a senior, is 40%
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
(500)^2 + (1200)^2 = c^2
1,690,000 = c^2
take the square root of 1,690,000
Answer is 1,300 feet
