3. assume that a company sold 5.75 million motorcycles and 3.5 million cars in the year 2010. the growth in the sale of motorcycles is 16% every year and that of cars is 25% every year. find when the sale of cars will be more then the sale of motorcycles. (show work) in a survey in 2010, the population of two plant species were found to be growing exponentially. their growth is given by these equations: species a, and species b, , where t = 0 in the year 2010.

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

year 1    5.75 (million) x 1.16 (16 percent ) = 6.67   motorcycles

year 2    6.67  x 1.16 = 7.7372

year 3     7.74 x  1.16 = 8.9784

year 4      8.98 x 1.16 = 10.4168

year 5     10.42 x  1.16 = 12.0834

year 6     12.09 x 1.16 = 14.0244

year 7    14.02 x 1.16 = 16.2632

year 1    3.5 (million) x 1.25 (25 percent) = 4.375

year 2    4.375 x 1.25 = 5.46875

year 3    5.47   x  1.25 = 6.8359

year 4     6.84   x 1.25 = 8.5449

year 5      8.55 x 1.25 = 10.6875

year 6    10.69 x 1.25 = 13.359375

year 7    13.36 x 1.25 = 16.7

16.80 times .20= 3.36
