The table shows the population of a small town over time. The function P = 10,550(1. 1)x models the population x years after the year 2000. A 2-column table with 5 rows. The first column is labeled years after 2000, x with entries 0, 3, 4, 7, 10. The second column is labeled population, P with entries 10,5000; 14,000; 15,500; 20,500; 27,000. For which year would this model most likely be sufficient to make a prediction of the population? 1950 2005 2025 2050.

Answers

The population model is most sufficient for 2005 because 2005 is the closest to 2000

The population function is given as:

[tex]P(x) = 10550(1.1)^x[/tex]

From the question, we understand that the population model is for years after 2000.

This means that the model cannot be used for the year 1950; because 1950 is before 2000.

The model can be used for years 2005, 2025 and 2050.

However, it is most sufficient for 2005 because 2005 is the closest to 2000, and the population model can change with time

A map of a nature park has a scale of 2 inches to 1.5 miles. There are two trails that are 8 inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the two trails?

Answers

Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

2 inches : 1.5 miles

8 inches : 4(2 inches)

8 inches : 4(1.5 miles)

8 inches : 6 miles

6 miles away

-Chetan K

The actual distance between the two trails is 6 miles.

Given the scale of the map is 2 inches to 1.5 miles, we can set up a proportion to find the actual distance between the two trails.

Let x represent the actual distance between the trails in miles. The proportion would be:

(2 inches / 1.5 miles) = (8 inches / x miles)

Now, solving for x:

2/1.5 = 8/x

Cross-multiplying:

2x = 1.5 × 8

2x = 12

Divide by 2:

x = 6

So, the actual distance between the two trails is 6 miles.

(2x + 23), (8x + 2) and (20x – 52) are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
Prove that the common difference of the sequence is 12

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given (2x + 23), (8x + 2) and (20x - 52) are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.

(8x + 2) - (2x + 23) = (20x - 52) - (8x + 2)

or, 6x - 21 = 12x - 54

or, 12x - 6x = - 21 + 54 = 33

or, 6x = 33

or, 2x = 11

∴ x = 11/2

∴2x + 23 = 2 × 11/2 + 23 = 34

8x + 2 = 8 × 11/2 + 2 = 46 and

20x - 52 = 20 × 11/2 - 52 = 110 - 52 = 58

34, 46 and 58 are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.

∴ Common difference(d) = 46 - 34 = 58 - 46 = 12, it is proved.

Hence, the common difference of the sequence is 12.

The domain is in the left oval, the range is in the right oval. To find if its a function you have to make sure the domain (left side) doesn't "cheat". One number in the domain cant have more than one number in the range (right side), BUT (for future reference) the range can cheat. As shown, the right side numbers 1 and 6 have two different arrow pointed at them. As long as the domain doesnt "cheat" it is a function

2. SAS (side angle side) says if 2 sides and the included angle of a triangle are congruent to 2 sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

3. ASA (angle side angle) says if 2 angles and the included side of a triangle are congruent to 2 angles and the included side of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

4. AAS (angle angle side) says if 2 angles and the none included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

5 HL (hypotenuse leg) says if 2 right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding congruent leg, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

Because it is a rectangle, the sides are equal, and they share the same hypotenuse.

y = 2x - 9


y = 1/2x + 3

These two lines are:
parallel
perpendicular
neither

Answers

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines = - 1

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x - 9 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

2 ≠ [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , then lines are not parallel

2 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 1 ≠ - 1, then lines are not perpendicular

A = 3

B = -7

C = 3

D = -7

======================================================

Explanation:

You could use the AC method to factor, but I think the method described below is a more efficient way of factoring.

Set the given expression equal to zero and solve for x using the quadratic formula. So the goal is to find the roots for [tex]9x^2-42x+49=0[/tex]

We'll plug in a = 9, b = -42, and c = 49.

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-42)\pm\sqrt{(-42)^2-4(9)(49)}}{2(9)}\\\\x = \frac{42\pm\sqrt{0}}{18}\\\\x = \frac{42+0}{18}\\\\x = \frac{42}{18}\\\\x = \frac{7}{3}\\\\[/tex]

Because the root is x = 7/3, it leads to the factor 3x-7 = 0

Note that we go from x = 7/3 to 3x = 7 after multiplying both sides by 3. Then we subtract 7 from both sides.

It turns out that we have two copies of the identical factor (3x-7) because x = 7/3 is a double root.

So in reality we have the factorization (3x-7)(3x-7) which we can shorten into (3x-7)^2 if we wanted.

Use the box method or FOIL method to expand (3x-7)(3x-7) and you should get 9x^2-21x-21x+49 which simplifies to 9x^2-42x+49. This confirms we have the correct factorization.

Therefore, A and C are both 3, while B and D are both -7.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point -3,4 and slope of 6

Answers

Answer: y=6x+22
Explanation:
1. we first start with the equation y=Mx+b
2. Then we plug in the slope (6) into M
3. Now you have y=6x+b
4. Now you plug in your point (-3,4) into the y and the x values
5. You are now stuck with 4=6(-3)+b
6. Now multiply 6 and -3 which gets you -18
7. Your new equation is now 4=-18+b
8. Now add 18 to both sides of the equals sign
9. Now you have 4+18=b
10. Add 4+18 which gets you 22. B is 22
11. Plug b into the equation and turn the values of x and y back to those letters
12. You now have the answer of y=6x+22
