The population would be about

Answer 1

@study100

Answer 2

4,872 is incorrect

Answer 3

@Power2Knowledge Sorry I wonder if you're learnning exponential growth or compound anual growth?

I think this is exponential growth:
y= Ce^(rt)
y= 2500 e^(0.069*10)
y=4984 people

Answer 4

exponential growth

Answer 5

so there it is :)

Answer 6

thank you. can you help me with a few more questions?

Answer 7

Sure :)

Answer 8

The solutions are x =

Answer 9

(i received partial credit) but my answer is 5,0

Answer 10

is this the whole equation for number 1?
\[\sqrt{5x+1}= x+1\]

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

for number 2, x= where they touch
so x=0,3

Answer 13

square both sides for number 1
5x+1 = x^2 + 2x +1
x^2 -3x= 0
x(x-3)=0
x= 0,3 same answer

Answer 14

Thanks. What are the solutions to the equation 4x^3 - 5x = |4x|? List your answers in increasing order. https://wca.sooschools.com/media/g_alg02_ccss_2013/9/img_alg2_9_5a_06_graphing.gif
The solutions are x = my answer (partial) 3/2, -3/2, 0
