The town of madison has a population of 25,000. The population is increasing by a factor of 1.12 each year. Write a function that gives the population P(t) in madison t years from now

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial population of town of Madison = 25,000

The rate at which the population is increasing = 1.12 times

So, the increase in population first year  :

( the initial population)  x  = 1.12 x ( 25,000)  

= 28,000

So, the population at the end of first year = 28,000

Similarly, the increase in population second year  :

( the initial population)  x (1.12)²  =  ( 25,000)   x (1.12)²

= 31,360

So, the population at the end of second year =31,360

Now, to calculate the population in t years from now:

The population P(t) at the end of year t is

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

answer: 1inch=7days  

12inch=12*7=84days
