In 2010 the town of applewood had an estimated population of 22,000 people, and its annual growth rate was estimated to be 1.8%.

the population of applewood is equal to the function p(n), where p(n) = 22,000(1.018)n, and n is the number of years since 2010.

to better understand the future needs of the town, the town council has graphed p(n).

determine whether each of the following conclusions are correct conclusions about the graph of p(n). select yes or no for each conclusion.
conclusion yes no
the population of applewood, p(n), equals 0 when n = 0.

the behavior of the left end of the graph flattens out indicating that as n approaches negative infinity the population of applewood approaches 0.

the behavior of the right end of the graph is upward indicating that as n approaches infinity the population of applewood approaches infinity.

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

P------> the population of Applewood

n-----> the number of years since 2010

we have

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Verify each conclusion

a) The population of Applewood, P(n), equals 0 when n = 0

The conclusion is No

For n=0

The population is equal to P(0)=22,000 people

b) The behavior of the left end of the graph flattens out indicating that as n approaches negative infinity the population of Applewood approaches 0

The conclusion is Yes

see the graph

c) The behavior of the right end of the graph is upward indicating that as n approaches infinity the population of Applewood approaches infinity

The conclusion is Yes

see the graph

450 is the final answer! : )

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.
