A population of mice is increasing exponentially. On Monday there were 120 most. One month later there were 132 most. Ready function tomorrow the situation. Determine the percent increase of the population of most of each month.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]y=120 * 1.1^x[/tex] --- function

The monthly rate is 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

[tex]x \to months[/tex]

[tex]y \to mice[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,120)[/tex] --- Monday

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (1,132)[/tex] --- One month later

Required

The function

The function is represented as:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

In [tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,120)[/tex], we have:

[tex]120 = a * b^0[/tex]

[tex]120 = a * 1[/tex]

[tex]120 = a[/tex]

[tex]a=120[/tex]

In [tex](x_2,y_2) = (1,132)[/tex], we have:

[tex]132 = a * b^1[/tex]

[tex]132 = a * b[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]a=120[/tex]

[tex]132 = 120 * b[/tex]

Solve for b

[tex]b = \frac{132}{120}[/tex]

[tex]b = 1.1[/tex]

So, the function is:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y=120 * 1.1^x[/tex]

To calculate the monthly rate (r), we have:

[tex]y =a(1 + r)^x[/tex]

Compare to: [tex]y =ab^x[/tex]

[tex]1 + r = b[/tex]

Make r the subject

[tex]r = b-1[/tex]

Substitute [tex]b = 1.1[/tex]

[tex]r = 1.1-1[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.1[/tex]

Express as percentage

[tex]r = 0.1*100\%[/tex]

[tex]r = 10\%[/tex]

A woman buys a pair of shoes at a sale,
She pays $60. saving $15 on the regular
price. The percentage discount on the
shoes is
(A)
20
(B)
25
-
(C)
33
3
(D)
80

Answers

Answer:

20 %

Step-by-step explanation:

If she saved 15 dollars and paid 60, the original price was 60+15 = 75

The percent discount is  (original - new) / original = ( 75-60)/75 = 15/75 = .2

Change to percent form = .2 * 100 =20%

Answer:

B.) 20 %

The percentage discount on the shoes is 20 % .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :- A woman buys a pair of shoes at a sale . She paid $60 and saving $15 on the regular price.

To Find :-The percentage discount on the shoes

Solution. :-

She pays 60 dollers and saved 15 dollers on the regular price.

original price of pair of shoes = 60 + 15 = 75

Percentage discount is = original price - new price / original price

= 75 - 60 / 75 = 15 / 75 = 0.2

Percentage discount = 0.2

Change into percentage =0.2× 100 = 20%

Therefore, the percentage discount on the shoes is 20 % .

Kayden is a stunt driver. One time, during a gig where she escaped from a building about to explode, she drove at a constant speed to get to the safe zone that was 160 meters away. After 3 seconds of driving, she was 85 meters away from the safe zone. Let D(t) denote the distance to the safe zone D (measured in meters) as a function of time t (measured in seconds).
Which of the below formulas is the correct function's formula?
A. D(t) = -25t + 160
B. D(t) = 25t + 160
C. D(t) = -25t - 160
D. D(t) = 25t - 160

Answers

whats the value of x? -5(x + 7) = -14 + 2x

Answers

Answer: x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok let's start by using the distributive property

[tex](-5)(x)+(-5)(7)=-14+2x\\-5x-35=-14+2x[/tex]

Now subtract 2x from both sides

[tex]-5x-35-2x=2x-14-2x\\-7x-35=-14[/tex]

Next add 35 to both sides

[tex]-7x-35+35=-14+35\\-7x=21[/tex]

Finally divide both sides by -7

[tex]\frac{-7x}{-7} =\frac{21}{-7} \\x=-3[/tex]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we compute -5(x + 7). -5(x + 7) = -5x - 35. Plugging this into the equation, we have -5x - 35 = -14 + 2x Next, we combine like terms by moving all terms with the variable x to the left side. We have -5x - 2x = -14 + 35. We simplify the equation into -7x = 21. Divide 21 by -7, and we get x = -3.

Answers

Just plugin the numbers you have. For instance, r = radius. We know that the radius is 1/2 of the diameter. Our diameter is 12 so 12 / 2 = 6. With that said, add 6 to where the r is located in the formula and solve the formula.

Solve for V


To solve for V we have to do the following.

To solve by completing the square, what needs to be moved in this equation?
x2 = 9 - 4x

A. The x^2

B. =

C. The - 4x

D. The 9

Answers

Answer:

To complete the square, we need to have the equation set up like this:

x^2 +4x =9

To do that, we'd need to move the 4x to the left side producing

4x + x^2 = 9

And that can be rewritten as

x^2 +4x =9

So the term that needs to be moved is -4x

Renee has dimes and quarters in her wallet that total $1.60. She has 2 more dimes than quarters.
How many of each coin does Renee have?

Answers

Given:

Renee has dimes and quarters in her wallet that total $1.60.

She has 2 more dimes than quarters.

To find:

The number of each type of coins.

Solution:

Let x be the number of dimes and y be the number of quarters.

She has 2 more dimes than quarters. So,

[tex]x=y+2[/tex]            ...(i)

We know that,

1 dime = $0.10

1 quarter = $0.25

Renee has dimes and quarters in her wallet that total $1.60. So,

[tex]0.10x+0.25y=1.60[/tex]              ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]0.10(y+2)+0.25y=1.60[/tex]

[tex]0.10y+0.20+0.25y=1.60[/tex]

[tex]0.35y=1.60-0.20[/tex]

[tex]0.35y=1.40[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.35.

[tex]y=\dfrac{1.40}{0.35}[/tex]

[tex]y=4[/tex]

Substituting [tex]y=4[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]x=4+2[/tex]

[tex]x=6[/tex]

Therefore, the number of dimes is 6 and the number of quarters is 4.

Given the following system of equations, what value of x makes the equations true?
x+y= 3.25
x-y= 1.75

Answers

x=2.5!! hope this helps
Answer: x=2.5 , y=0.75

Explanation:

x+y=3.25 => y=3.25-x ——(1)

x-y=1.75 ——(2)

Substitute equation (1) in (2) then,

x-(3.25-x)=1.75

x-3.25+x=1.75

2x-3.25=1.75

2x=1.75+3.25

2x=5

x=5/2=2.5

Substitute vale of x in equation (1) we get

y=3.25-2.5

y=0.75

Therefore, x=2.5 , y=0.75

C (3rd choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain (x-values):

We can see that there is a max number of 14 hours and a min. of 0 hours. This means that the domain is [0, 14]. Note that the domain would be in brackets (as opposed to parentheses) because the values are included in the data set. Since time works on a continuum, it can be reasonably concluded that all values should be included (e.g., 1.5 hours exists). Therefore, we would state that all numbers from 0 to 14 are valid in the domain.

Range (y-values):

We can see that there is a max of 85 people and a min. of 0 people. This means that the range is [0, 85]. Again, since the values 0 and 85 are both included in the data, the range is notated in brackets. Be mindful that there is no such thing as half person, so the range must only include whole numbers. That means this chart acts as a step-function.
