the population of masterton was 23 000 in 2012. Assume that Masterton population increases at a rate of 2% per year. Write an equation to model the population of masterton (y) based on number of years since 2012(x)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: So, let's first focus on the first year:

the population then would be: 23000* (100+2)%

100% is the old population the 2% is the incease, so in total it's 102%, or 1.02 - the same number written differently.

So it will be 23000*1.02

After two years it will be 23000*1.02*1.02, and so on

so after x years it will be:

y=23000*1.02^(z)

ok, we don't know if anyone is in there, maybe they all went grocery shopping
in that scenario, you are the only one (I hope) and therefor answer is 2 legs

if everybody is in ther (including yourself)

king=1
queens=5
how many rooms total?
5 times 5=25 rooms
5 big cats per room
5 times 25=125 big cats
each big cat has 5 little cats
125 times 5=625 little cats


1 king
5 queens
125 big cats
625 little cats

people has 2 legs
casts have 4
1*2+5*2+125*4+625*4=3012 legs
plus yourself (2 legs)
3014 legs

The lengths of the sides of a quadrilateral are 4 consecutive even integers. The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 36 inches. What is the length of the longest side?\WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
NEED THIS ASAP

Answers

Answer:

The length of the longest side is 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the quadrilateral is that the length of the sides are;

The length of the sides are consecutive integers =  x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

The perimeter of the rectangle = 36 inches

The side length to be found = The length of the longest side = x + 3

2 6 10 14 18

∴ x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 36

4·x + 12 = 36

4·x = 36 - 12 = 24

4·x = 24

x = 24/4 = 6

x = 6 inches

The length of the longest side = x + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

The length of the longest side = 9 inches.

Answer:

The length of the longest side is 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the quadrilateral is that the length of the sides are;

The length of the sides are consecutive integers =  x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

The perimeter of the rectangle = 36 inches

The side length to be found = The length of the longest side = x + 3

2 6 10 14 18

∴ x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 36

4·x + 12 = 36

4·x = 36 - 12 = 24

4·x = 24

x = 24/4 = 6

x = 6 inches

The length of the longest side = x + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

The length of the longest side = 9 inches.

What is the approximate volume of the cone with a height of 9 cm and a radius of 15 cm.

Answers

V = (1/3) pi r^2 h where r is the radius of the circular base and h is the height of the cone.

V = (1/3) pi (15)^2 * 9

V = 675 pi
V = 2120,575 square cm (approx)
