- The population P (in millions) of Texas from 2001 through 2014 can be approximated by the model P=20.913e0.0184t, where t represents the year, with t=1 corresponding to 2001. According to this model, when will the population reach 32 million?arrow_forwardA Skydiver When a skydiver jumps from an airplane, his downward velocity, in feet per second, before he opens his parachute, is given by v=1761-0.834t, where t is the number of seconds that have elapsed since he jumped from the airplane. What is the velocity after 5 seconds?arrow_forwardA bullet is fired straight up from a BB gun with initial velocity 1120 feet per second at an initial height of 8 feet. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t+8 to determine how many seconds it will take for the bullet to hit the ground. (That is, when will h=0 ?)arrow_forward
- Find the unknown value. 27. y varies jointly with x and the cube root of 2. If when x=2 and z=27,y=12, find y if x=5 and z=8.arrow_forwardAll dimensions are in inches. Round the answers to 3 decimal places. a. If y = 2.145" find x. b If y = 2.265", find x.arrow_forwardAn arrow shot from the ground into the air at an initial speed of 108 ft/s. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t determine when the arrow will be 180 feet from the ground. Round the nearest tenth.arrow_forward
- Solve 5e2x=25. Find the exact answer and then approximate it to three decimal places.arrow_forwardThe approximate distance d (in feet) that travel after noticing that they must come to a sudden stop is given by the following formula, where x is the speed of the car (in mi/h): d=x+x220 If a car travels 75 ft. before slopping, what was its speed before the brakes were applied?arrow_forward
