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.

Pens cost 15 pence each.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The amount the school pays is £32.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each pen = 15 pence

The cost of each ruler = 20 pence

The number of pens bought by the school = 150

The number of rulers bought by the school = 90

The cost reduction (discount) on the items bought = 1/5

Therefore, we have;

The total cost of the pens bought by the school = 150 × 15 = 2250 = £22.50

The total cost of the rulers bought by the school = 90 × 20 = 1800 = £18.00

The total cost of the writing materials (rulers and pens) bought by the school = £22.50 + £18.00 = £40.50

The discount = 1/5 total cost reduction = 1/5×£40.50  = $8.10

The amount the school pays = The total cost of the writing materials - The discount

The amount the school pays = £40.50 - $8.10 =  £32.40

The amount the school pays =  £32.40.
