Answer:

$927,154\ people$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a exponential function of the form

$y=a(b^x)$

where

y is the population of San Francisco

x is the number of years

a is the initial population

b is the base

r is the rate of grown

b=(1+r)

In this problem we have

$r=1.26\%=1.26/100=0.0126$

$b=1+0.0126=1.0126$

ordered pair (6, 870,887)

substitute in the exponential function $y=a(b^x)$

$870,887=a(1.0126^6)$

Solve for a

$a=870,887/(1.0126^6)$

$a=807,857\ people$

The exponential function is equal to

$y=807,857(1.0126^x)$

In 5 more years the number of years will be equal to

6+5=11 years

For x=11 years

substitute the value of x in the exponential function and solve for y

$y=807,857(1.0126^{11})$

$y=927,154\ people$

A set of positive integers {1, 2 , 3 , 4, 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9} is used to form a pack of nine cards. each card displays one positi

ivanzaharov [21]

If the largest integer drawn among the four cards is 5, then that means that 3 of the cards drawn are from the set {1, 2, 3, 4}. The number of ways of selecting 3 cards from 4 cards is given by:

$^4C_3=4$

If the largest integer drawn among the four cards is 6, then that means that 3 of the cards drawn are from the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. The number of ways of selecting 3 cards from 5 cards is given by:

$^5C_3=10$

If the largest integer drawn among the four cards is 7, then that means that 3 of the cards drawn are from the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. The number of ways of selecting 3 cards from 6 cards is given by:

$^6C_3=20$

Therefore, <span>the number of selections grace could make if the largest integer drawn among the four cards is either a 5, a 6 or a 7 is given by 4 + 10 + 20 = 34 selections.</span>

Find the sum of the first 30 terms of the sequence below an=3n+2

Solnce55 [7]

First off, let's find the 1st term's value, and the 30th term's value,

$\bf a1=3(1)+2\implies a1=5\qquad \qquad \quad a30=3(30)+2\implies a30=92\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
~~~~~~~\textit{ Sum of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
S_n=\cfrac{n(a1+an)}{2}~ 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a1=\textit{first term's value}\\
----------\\
a1=5\\
a30=92\\
n=30
\end{cases} \implies S_{30}=\cfrac{30(5+92)}{2}
\\\\\\
S_{30}=15(97)$

Oil leaks out of a tanker at a rate of r=f(t) liters per minute, where t is in minutes. If f(t)=Ae^(−kt), write a definite integ

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The definite integral expressing the total quantity of oil, 'V', which leaks out of the tanker in the first hour is given as follows;

$V = \int\limits^{60}_0 {A \cdot e^{(-k \cdot t)}} \, dt$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have;

The rate at which oil leaks out of the tanker, r = f(t)

The unit of the oil leak = Liters per minute

The unit of t = Minutes

$If \ f(t) = A \cdot e^{(-k \cdot t )}$

Therefore, we have;

The definite integral expressing the total quantity, 'V', of oil which leaks out of the tanker in the first hour is given as follows;

$V = \int\limits^{60}_0 {A \cdot e^{(-k \cdot t)}} \, dt$

Therefore, we have;

$\int\limits^{60}_0 {A \cdot e^{(-k \cdot t)}} \, dt = \dfrac{A \cdot e ^{60 \cdot k} - A}{k \cdot e ^{60 \cdot k} }$

What are the solutions to the equation 0 = x2 – x –6? Select two options

KatRina [158]

Answer:

$x=3$ or $x=-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is factorable.

The leading coefficient is 1.

Since this is a quadratic all we have to do is find two numbers that multiply to be c and add up to be b to factor the expression that is to the left of the equal sign.

By the way a quadratic expression looks like $ax^2+bx+c$ .
