The population of a town in 2014 was 78,918 people with an annual rate of increase of about 1.7%. which type of function can represent this situation?

a) linear
b) exponential

B.  Exponential.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each year you can find the estimated population for the following year by multiplying by  1 + 1.7%  = 1.017.

The population estimate in  x years time =  78,918 (1.017)^x.

2,600 divided by 80 = 32.5

step-by-step explanation:

solution:

→c= a b , that is product of a and b is possible only when when a is m × n matrix and b is n × p matrix.

that is, number of columns of a= number of rows of b.

so, size of matrix , c= a b is , if a = (m × n)matrix

b= (n × p)matrix

then a b = [ (m × n)matrix] ×[   (n × p)matrix ]

→→c= a b= [m × p ] matrix

→→size of product a b will be equal to = number of rows of a × number of columns of b
