The formula A = 19.6 e 0.0137t models the population of a US state, A, in millions, t years after 2000. a. What was the population of the state in 2000?
b. When will the population of the state reach 25.9 million?

answer:      

step-by-step explanation:

$12. that is my answer.

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9
