A city starts with a population of 500,000 people in 2007. Its population declines according to the equation P(t) = 500,000e -0.099
where P is the population in t years later. Approximately when will the population be one-half the initial amount?

After 7 years the population will be one-half the initial amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Initial population = 500,000

The population declines according to the equation:

, where P is the population in t years later.

One-half the initial amount = 0.5 x 500,000

= 250,000

Put P(t)=250,000, we get

Hence, After 7 years the population will be one-half the initial amount.

cut 138 centimeters off

step-by-step explanation:

250-112 = 138

the answer is 150.6

step-by-step explanation:

you multiply .02 by 30 and get .6.

and then you multiply 5.00 by 30 and get 150.

hope this !
