The Tangent Line Problem 1/3How do you find the slope of the tangent line to a function at a point Q when you only have that one point? This Demonstration shows that a secant line can be used to approximate the tangent line. The secant line PQ connects the point of tangency to another point P on the graph of the function. As the distance between the two points decreases, the secant line becomes closer to the tangent line.
The function is given by
y=45,200 + 1,900x
and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)
Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .
So the population increases every year by 1,900.
Answer:
508.8 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The most accurate determination mathematically is to assume that Lola will maintain an average of 5.3 seconds per signature as she signs all 96 invitations.
Therefore, multiply the time it takes her to sign each invitation (5.3 seconds) by the total number of invitations there are (96 invitations) to get the projected total amount of time that it will take Lola to sign all 96 invitations:
At first shop the 3 liters of milk cost 2995
cost per liter = cost / volume
cost per liter = 2995 / 3 L
cost per liter = 998 per liter of milk
at second shop the two liters of milk cost 1595
cost per liter = cost / volume
cost per liter = 1595 / 2 L
cost per liter = 797.5 per liter of milk
For the first investment. A = P(1 + rt); where p = 9,720, r = 0.0316 and t = 1/12
A = 9720(1 + 0.0316/12) = 9720(1.0026) = $9,746
For the second investment,
A = 8140(1 + 0.0323 x 2) = 8140(1.0646) = $8,666
Total amount she had = $9,746 + $8,666 = $18,412
