Rational equation model of population Decline

[Poohbear22]

Suppose instead that the town experiences population decline that can be modeled by the following: P= (Po)/t+1) where t is the number of years from 2010.

a) Insert the value of that your group has agreed to use.
Answer:

b) Fill in the following chart. Round to the nearest whole person when necessary.

Year (t) Population (P)

t = 0
(2010) ________

t = 1
(2011)
t = 2
(2012)
t = 3
(2013)
t = 6
(2016)

You've been given an equation, and your group picked a value for the constant. Then you were given the t-values to plug into the equation you were given. If you have no idea how to proceed, then you need much more help, and more intensive, than we can possibly provide you here. (We can help you with specific exercises, but this assistance requires that you have at least some basic grasp of the underlying material. If you can't do plug-n-chug, then you don't have that very-necessary foundational background.) :shock:

Please seriously consider hiring a qualified tutor, local to your area, and setting aside a few hours a week (an hour or two a day would be best) for concentrated re-learning of the previous material. With diligent effort, you may be able to get caught up to your class inside a month. :idea:

Good luck!
