In the year 2000, the population of Florida was 16 million people. Since then, the population has grown at least 2% each year. How many years will it be before the state's population is at least 30 million people? Round to the nearest tenth of a year.

Answers

Answer 1

Using an exponential function, it is found that it will take 31.7 years for the state's population to be of at least 30 million people.

An increasing exponential function is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

The initial population is of 16 million people, hence [tex]A(0) = 16[/tex].The growth rate is of 2%, hence [tex]r = 0.02[/tex]

Then:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 16(1 + 0.02)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]

It will be 30 million after t years, for which A(t) = 30, hence:

[tex]A(t) = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]

[tex]30 = 16(1.02)^t[/tex]

[tex](1.02)^t = \frac{30}{16}[/tex]

[tex](1.02)^t = 1.875[/tex]

[tex]\log{(1.02)^t} = \log{1.875}[/tex]

[tex]t\log{1.02} = \log{1.875}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{1.875}}{\log{1.02}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 31.7[/tex]

It will take 31.7 years for the state's population to be of at least 30 million people.

Mrs. Ashton buys journals for the students in her language arts class. She pays $64.48 for all of the journals. If there are 26 students in her class, how much does each journal cost?

Answers

Answer:

Each journal costs $2.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the cost of a single journal.

You can write this equation to represent the problem:

26x = 64.48

(26 times the cost of the journal is $64.48)

Then just solve for x by dividing both sides by 26:

[tex]26x=64.48\\\frac{26x}{26} =\frac{64.48}{26}\\x=2.48[/tex]

Each journal costs $2.48

The sum of two consecutive even numbers is 214. What are the numbers?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are consecutive even numbers, one is bigger by 2 than the other number.

so,

x + (x + 2) = 214

2x + 2 = 214

x + 1 = 107

x = 106

so, the 2 numbers are 106 and 108.

Answers

Answer:

145°

Step-by-step explanation:

[Finding the non-label angled in the triangle] 180° - 75° = 105°

Finding 3: (x = angle 3)

[Sum of a triangle's angles] 105° + 40° + x (angle 3) = 180

[combine like terms] 145° + x = 180°

[subtracting 145 from both sides] 35° = x

Community planners are planning to build a new community garden. They agree that the garden will be rectangular in shape, but the proposed dimensions changed. At the most recent meeting, it was determined that the length would remain at 15.8 yards but that the width would increase by 5.2 yards. So, the garden would now cover an area of 327.65 square yards.

Which equation can be used to determine the original width of the garden, w?
1: 327.65 = 5.2 (w + 15.8)
2: 327.65 = 15.8(w +5.2)
3: 327.65 = 2 (w +21)​

Answers

Answer:

2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original width, multiply 15.8 by w, and by 5.2.

You'll get 327.65 = 15.8w + 82.16.

Next, do the opposite of the symbol from both sides, 327.65 - 82.16 = 15.8w + 82.16.

The constant is 82.16, and the symbol is +, the opposite of plus is -, and thus subtract the constant from both sides.

You'll get 245.49 = 15.8w.

Now do the opposite of the symbol (a number next to a variable is multiplication, so do division, and divide 15.8 on both sides.

245.49/15.8 = 15.8w/15.8, which equals 15.5373417722.

Artem drives 12.6 miles in 12 minutes. He passes a sign which gives the speed limit as 50 mph. By how much, in mph, did Artem's average speed exceed the speed limit?​

Answers

Mph is miles per hour. So take 12.6 miles and divide by 12 min (need to convert to hours)
12 min is .2 hours
So 12.6/.2 gives a value of 63.
63-50 is a value of 13.
This means Artem is driving 13 over the speed limit of 50mph.

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

[tex]m=\displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where two points on the line are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the given points (4,-1) and (0,3)

[tex]m=\displaystyle\frac{-1-(-3)}{4-0}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{2}{4}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. Plug this into  [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] :

[tex]y=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2} x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2} x+b[/tex]

The y-intercept occurs when x=0. Because we're given that (0,-3), the y-intercept is therefore -3.

[tex]y=\displaystyle\frac{1}{2} x-3[/tex]

Use the definite integral and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to solve the following problem. A ball is thrown upward from a height of 1.2 m at an initial speed of 58 m/sec. Acceleration resulting from gravity is -9.8 m/sec^2. Find the following:

v(t)= _________
h(t)= ________

Answers

If v(t) and h(t) denote the ball's velocity and height at time t, respectively, then we have h(0) = 1.2 m and v(0) = 58 m/s.

The ball is in free fall after being tossed, so its acceleration is constant at any time t :

[tex]a(t) = -9.8 \dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]

By the fundamental theorem of calculus, the velocity function is given by

[tex]\displaystyle v(t) = v(0) + \int_0^t a(u) \, du[/tex]

Compute the integral:

[tex]\displaystyle v(t) = 58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s} - \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) \int_0^t du[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle v(t) = 58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s} - \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) (t - 0)[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{v(t) = 58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s} - \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) t}[/tex]

Similarly, the height function is given by

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = h(0) + \int_0^t v(u) \, du[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = 1.2 \, \mathrm m + \int_0^t \left(58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s} - \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) t\right) \, du[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = 1.2 \, \mathrm m + \left(58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right) (t - 0) - \frac12 \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) (t^2 - 0^2)[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{h(t) = 1.2 \, \mathrm m + \left(58 \frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right) t - \frac12 \left(9.8 \frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right) t^2}[/tex]

Answer:

V(t) = 58-9.8t

h(t)=1.2+58t-4.9[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the standard formula

a=V f-Vi/t --rearrange

at=V f-Vi

V f=V i + a t

therefore

V(t)=58-9.8t

same with height

H= Hi+Vit+1/2at^2

therefore

h(t)=1.2+58t-4.9t^2

At 9:00 on Saturday morning, two bicyclists heading in opposite directions pass each other on a bicycle path. The bicyclist heading north is riding 4 km/hour faster than the bicyclist heading south. At 10:15, they are 40 km apart. Find the two bicyclists’ rates.

A. northbound bicyclist = 19 km/h; southbound bicyclist = 15 km/h

B. northbound bicyclist = 18 km/h; southbound bicyclist = 13 km/h

C. northbound bicyclist = 16 km/h; southbound bicyclist = 10 km/h

D. northbound bicyclist = 18 km/h; southbound bicyclist = 14 km/h

Answers

Answer:

D Option is the correct one.

Step-by-step explanation:

As,

Distance covered = 40km = 40000m(1k=1000m)

time = 10:15-9:00 = 1:15hours = 75mins

We need to find the rates of the bicyclist in one hour so, for this first we need to calculate the total distance which covered in one hour.

For calculating distance for one hour,

40000/75 = 533.33m/min (means they covered 533.33m distance in one min)

for one hour:

533.33*60= 32000m = 32km

They covered 32km distance in one hour.

Now from the given options D is the correct one because according to give condition north bicyclist covered 4km more that south one. And other reason is we also need to check the sum of distance covered by the both cyclist which must be equal to 32km.

So for A,

Sum = 19 + 15 =34 (wrong not equal to 32)

For B,

Sum = 18 + 13 = 31 (wrong)

For C,

Sum = 16 + 10 = 26(wrong)

For D,

Sum = 18 + 14 = 32 (Right)

And second distance b/w both distance is 4km.

18-14 = 4(Right)

So, D option is the right one.
