Brian has been playing a game where he can create towns and his empire expand. each town he has allows him to create 1.17 times as many villagers. the game gave brian 8 villagers to start with. brian expand his empire by solving for how many villagers he can create with 16 towns. then explain to brian how to create an equation to predict the number of villagers for any number of towns. show your work and use complete sentences.

You can make an equation of f(n)= 8 * 1.17n, where f(n) is the total number of villagers, 8 is the starting amount of villagers, and 1.17n is the exponent of how many villagers Brian can create. If you substitute 16 into the equation, you will get how many villagers he can create with 16 towns.

f(n) = 8 * 1.17n

f(16) = 8 * 1.17n

f(16) = 8 * 12.330...

f(16) = 98.64243...

Since you cannot have a part of a villager, Brian can create about 98 villagers.

f(n) = 8 x 1.17^(n)

f(16) = 8 x 1.17^(16)

f(16) = 8 x 12.330...

f(16) = 98.64243...

This is right because

8 x 1.17 = 9.36

9.36 x 1.17 = 10.9512

10.9512 x 1.17 = 12.812904

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
