the population of mastertown was 23,000 in 2012. assume that mastertowns population increases at a rate of 2% per year. write an equation to model the population of mastertown (y) based on numbers of years since 2012 (x)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: So, after one year will will have the new population of 23 000 * (100 %+2%)
(the 100 % is the old population and the 2% is the increase), that is:

23000*1.02=23460

(102 % can be represented as 1.02)

And for the next years, we have to repeat the procedure.

a more generic rule would be:

y=23000*1.02^(x) (x is the number of years passed)

What is the solution set of {x | x < -3} ∪ {x | x > 5}

Answers

The union of two sets is defined as all elements that are members of both sets.

The first set evaluuates to (...,...,...-7,-6,-5,-4) and the second eveluates to (6,7,8,9,...,...).

There are no elements that belong to both sets so the solution is the empty set. {∅}

Another way is to think about it in words: "What number(s) are less than -3 and also greater than 5?" There are no numbers that fit both of these.

22.6 m

67.9 m

188.5 m

Answers

Given:
diameter of two circles  3:5
small circle : 3
large circle : 5

circumference of two circles x : 113.1
small circle : ? 
large circle : 113.1 m

3:5 = x :113.1
3*113.1 = 5*x
339.3 = 5x
339.3 / 5 = x
67.86 = x

The approximate circumference of the smaller circle is 67.9 m.
