The cities of Abnarca and Bonipto have populations that are growing exponentially. In 1980, Abnarca had a population of 23,000 people. In 1990, its population was 28,000. Bonipto had a population of 35,000 in 1980. The population of Bonipto doubles every 55 years.
(a) How long does it take the population of Abnarca to double?
(b) How long will it take for Abnarca's population to equal that of Bonipto?

1. A manufacturing company manufactures a cardboard box with a square base and a height of 15 inches. Suppose the equation x2 +60x- 7,200 = 0 can be used to find the length and width of the base of the box, each measuring x inches.
Write the equation in factored form.
Use the zero product property to solve the equation. Show all the steps needed to find both answers.
Explain how the solution relates to this situation
2. City engineers decide to build a rectangular dog park that has an area of 3,600 square yards, where the length of the park is 10 more yards than twice its width. The equation x2 +5x-1,800 = 0 can be used to find the width of the dog park.

Which of the following statements are TRUE or False. (Explain why it’s true or false?)
Subtracting a positive number from a negative number always gives you a negative number.
Subtracting two negative numbers always gives you a negative number.
Subtracting a - b is the same as adding a + (-b).
A positive number minus a negative number is always a positive number.
The difference of a number and its opposite gives you zero.
Zero minus a number is the same as a number minus zero.

mg per 5 mL suspension or in
200
mg tablets. a. How many tablets should a
33-kg
patient take every four hours?
b. The suspension with a drop factor of 10 ggt/mL delivers the drug intravenously to the patient over a twelve-hour period. What flow rate should be used in units of ggt/hr?
a. The patient should take
nothing
pills every four hours.
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
b. The intravenous suspension flow should be set to
nothing
ggt/hour.
