Firstly, the rate of increase of Canton = 80/7720 = 0.010
The rate of increase of HP = 120/3200 = 0.0375
Apply the formula of compound interest==> A =A'(1+i)^n
The population will be equal when the following equality is satisfied
7720(1+0.01)^n = 3200(1+0.0375)^n
or
7720x1.01^n = 3200x1.0375^n
Divide both sides by 3200 ===>(193/80)x1.01^n=1.0375^n
A=Pe^rt
P=principal(starting)
E= function on calculator
r= rate
T= time (how long)
(6,-5) (6,-8)
y2-y1/x2-x1
-8+5/6-6
-3/0
Undefined should be the answer. Hope this helped (:
They will ring again together at 10:15am. Because the common factor for 40, 48 and 60 is 240, which means 240 minutes, that equals to 4 hours. Hence 4 hours after 6.15am is 10.15am.
Hope this helps.
