Use the formula t=ln2/k that gives the time for a population, with a growth rate k, to double, to answer the following question.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  • k = 0.005
  • doubling time ≈ 139 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching the form

  A = A0·e^(kt)

to the given equation

  A = 8·e^(.005t)

we can identify the value of k as being 0.005.

  k = 0.005

___

The doubling time is given by the formula ...

  t = ln(2)/k = ln(2)/0.005 ≈ 138.63

It will take about 139 years for the population to double.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

f(x) = k(x - \frac{3}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

Line q will be graphed on the same grid. The only solution to the system of linear equations formed by lines n and q occurs when x = \frac{3}{2} and y = 0.

Now, as x = \frac{3}{2}  is a solution of the equation, y = f(x) = 0, so, (x - \frac{3}{2}) will be a factor of the linear function y = f(x).

Therefore, we can write the possible equation for the line q will be

f(x) = k(x - \frac{3}{2}). (Where k is any constant} (Answer)

arlik [135]
Answer: $163.85

Explanation:

1) Data:

Purchase price: $ 113.00

mark up: 45%

2) Formula

selling price = purchase price + mark up

mark up = % * purchase price

3) Solution

mark up = 45% * $ 113.00 = 0.45 * $ 113.00 = $50.85

selling price = $ 113.00 + $ 50.85 = $ 163.85

Answer: $ 163.85

The slope, m, of a linear equation can be found using the formula m = StartFraction y 2 minus y a Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction
aniked [119]

Answer:

y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula for finding the slope of a linear equation to be;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1 where x and y are from the ordered pairs (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

To get the equivalent equation for y2, we will make y2 the subject of tbw formula from the equation as shown:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

Cross multiplying

m(x2-x1) = y2-y1

mx2-mx1 = y2-y1

Adding y1 to both sides of the equation we have;

mx2-mx1 + y1= y2-y1+y1

y2 = mx2-mx1 + y1

y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1

This gives the resulting equation to solve for y2
