Silver Lake has a population of 114,000. The population is decreasing at a rate of 1.5% each year. Which of the following choices is the correct function? a p(s) = 114000• 0.985x b p(s) = 114000x c p(s) = 114000x + 0.985 d None of these choices are correct.

D

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, Silver Lake has a population of 114,000. The population is decreasing at a rate of 1.5% each year

The initial population Po = 114000

Rate = 1.5% = 0.015

The declining population formula will be:

P = Po( 1 - R%)x^2

The decay formula

Since the population is decreasing, take away 0.015 from 1

1 - 0.015 = 0.985

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

P(s) = 114000(0.985)x^2

P(s) = 114000× 0985x^2

The correct answer is written above.

Since option A does not have square of x, we can therefore conclude that the answer is D - non of the choices is correct.

location: point 0

step-by-step explanation:

well, -8 to 10 on a number line is 18 spaces.

1/9 of 18 is 2.

so, 4/9 of 18 must be 8.

8 spaces from -8 (a) is 0.

so, 4/9 of the way from -8 to 10 is 0!
