The table shows the estimated number of bees, y, in a hive x days after a pesticide is released near the hive.

A 2-column table with 6 rows. The first column is labeled number of days with entries 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. The second column is labeled estimated number of bees with entries 10,000; 7,500; 5,600; 4,200; 3,200; 2,400.
Which function best models the data?

y = 9,958(0.972)x
y = 0.972(9,958)x
y = 9,219x– 150
y = –150x + 9,219

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table is

Days     Bees

  0        10,000

 10        7,500

 20       5,600

 30       4,200

 40       3,200

 50       2,400

Where [tex]x[/tex] represents days and [tex]y[/tex] represents bees.

The exponential function that models this problem must be like

[tex]y=a(1-r)^{x}[/tex], which represenst an exponential decary, because in this case, the number of bees decays.

We nned to use one points, to find the rate of decay. We know that [tex]a=10,000[/tex], because it starts with 10,000 bees.

Let's use the points (10, 7500)

[tex]y=a(1-r)^{x}\\7500=10000(1-r)^{10}[/tex]

Solving for [tex]r[/tex], we have

[tex]\frac{7500}{10000}=(1-r)^{10} \\(1-r)^{10} =0.75[/tex]

Using logarithms, we have

[tex]ln((1-r)^{10}) =ln(0.75)\\10 \times ln(1-r)=ln(0.75)\\ln(1-r)=\frac{ln(0.75)}{10} \approx -0.03\\e^{ln(1-r)}=e^{-0.03}\\1-r =e^{-0.03}\\r=-e^{-0.03}+1 \approx 1.97[/tex]

Replacing all values in the model, we have

[tex]y=10000(1-1.97)^{x}\\y=10000(0.97)^{x}[/tex]

Therefore, the right answer is the first choice, that's the best approximation to this situation.

Answers

Answer:

4 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the quadrupled recipe, you will need 6 2/3 cups of milk.

Here, we have,

To quadruple the macaroni and cheese recipe,

we need to multiply the original recipe measurements by 4.

The original recipe calls for 1 2/3 cups of milk.

To find out how much milk is needed for the quadrupled recipe, we can multiply 1 2/3 by 4:

1 2/3 * 4

= (5/3) * 4

= 20/3

= 6 2/3

Therefore, for the quadrupled recipe, you will need 6 2/3 cups of milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a unique positive real number x such that the three numbers
log82x, log4x and log2x, in that order, form a geometric progression with a positive common ratio.
The number x can be written as m/n, where m and n are relatively prime positive integers.
Find m+n.

Answers

Answer: 17  

Step-by-step explanation:

If the log82x, log4x and log2x, in that order, form a geometric progression with a positive common ratio.

Let a = log82x, b = log4x and c = log2x

If a = log8 2x; 8^a = 2x... (1)

If b = log4 x; 4^b = x ... (2)

If c = log2 x; 2^c = x...(3)

Since a, b c are in GP, then b/a = c/b

Cross multiplying:

b² = ac ...(4)  

From eqn 1, x = 8^a/2

x = 2^3a/2

x = 2^(3a-1)

From eqn 2; x = 4^b

x = 2^2b

From eqn 3: x = 2^c

Equating all the values of x, we have;

2^(3a-1) = 2^2b = 2^c

3a-1 = 2b = c

3a-1 = c and 2b = c

a = c+1/3 and b = c/2  

Substituting the value of a = c+1/3 and b = c/2 into equation 4 we have;

(c/2)² = c+1/3×c

c²/4 = c(c+1)/3

c/4 = c+1/3

Cross multiplying;

3c = 4(c+1)

3c = 4c+4

3c-4c = 4

-c = 4

c = -4  

Substituting c = -4 into equation 3 to get the value of x we have;

2^c = x

2^-4 = x

x = 1/2^4

x = 1/16    

Since the number x can be written as m/n, then x = 1/16 = m/n

This shows that m = 1, n = 16

m+n = 1+16

m+n = 17  

The required answer is 17.  

The value of m+n in which m and n are relatively prime positive integers is 17.

What is geometric sequence?

Geometric sequence is the sequence in which the next term is obtained by multiplying the previous term with the same number for the whole series.

There is a unique positive real number x such that the three numbers log82x, log4x and log2x, in that order, form a geometric progression with a positive common ratio. The progression is,

[tex]\log_82 x,\log_4x, \log_2x[/tex]

The above numbers are in geometric progression. Thus, the ratio of first two terms will be equal to the ratio of next two terms as,

[tex]\dfrac{\log_4x}{\log_82x}=\dfrac{\log_2x}{\log_4x}\\(\log_4x)^2={\log_2x}\times{\log_82x}\\[/tex]

Using the base rule of logarithmic function,

[tex]\left(\dfrac{\log x}{\log 4}\right)^2=\dfrac{\log x}{\log2}\times\dfrac{\log2x}{\log8}\\\left(\dfrac{\log x}{\log 2^2}\right)^2=\dfrac{\log x}{\log2}\times\dfrac{\log2x}{\log2^3}[/tex]

Using the Power rule of logarithmic function,

[tex]\left(\dfrac{\log x}{2\log 2}\right)^2=\dfrac{\log x}{\log2}\times\dfrac{\log2x}{3\log2}\\\dfrac{\log x}{4}=\dfrac{\log 2+\log x}{3}\\3\log x=4(\log2x)\\\log x^3=\log(2x)^4\\x^3=16x^4\\x=\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

The number x can be written as

[tex]\dfrac{m}{n}[/tex]

Here, m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Thus, the value of m+n is,

[tex]m+n=1+16=17[/tex]

Hence, the value of m+n in which m and n are relatively prime positive integers is 17.

Answers

Answer:

angle of depression = -12 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin = opposite/hypotenuse

sin = -208/1000

inv sin 0.208 = -12

To solve this problem, we just need to use trigonometric ratio and use the ratio that best fits this problem. The angle of depression is equal to 76.23 degrees.

Trigonometric Ratio

Using SOHCAHTOA, we can easily solve this problem, but we need to first know which ratio to use

Data;

opposite (ski run) = 1000 yardsadjacent (vertical drop) = 208 yards

since we have the value of opposite and adjacent, we can solve this using the tangent of the angle

[tex]tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan \theta = \frac{1000}{208} \\tan\theta = 4.807\\\theta = sin^-^1 (4.0807)\\\theta = 76.23^0[/tex]

Length of elevator = 12 METRES

Distance moved per second can be calculated by = (length of elevator / total ride time)

Find two numbers, if their sum is 49 and their difference is 1/2 .

Step-by-step explanation:

a  + b =49

a -  b = 0.5

a= 49.5

b= -0.5

The two numbers are approximately 24.25 and 24.75.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

Let's call the two numbers x and y.

According to the problem, we have two equations:

x + y = 49 (since their sum is 49)

x - y = 1/2 (since their difference is 1/2)

We can solve this system of equations using the method of substitution.

First, we can rearrange the second equation to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other:

x - y = 1/2

x = y + 1/2

Now we can substitute this expression for x into the first equation:

(y + 1/2) + y = 49

2y + 1/2 = 49

2y = 48.5

y = 24.25

Now we can use this value of y to solve for x:

x = y + 1/2 = 24.25 + 1/2 = 24.75

Therefore, the two numbers are approximately 24.25 and 24.75.

B. The probability a student uses social media, given that he or she is in 9th grade, is 81%.

D. An 8th grader is more likely to use social media than not.

E. Knowing a student’s grade level does not help determine if he or she uses social media.

What is Probability?

Probability is the ratio of the favorable outcomes to the total outcomes.

Given that, a group of 8th and 9th graders were surveyed about whether they use social media to communicate with their friends.

We can see that, there is no relationship between the usage of social media and grade level so, we can say that there is no association between using social media and grade level.

Probability of using social media by a 9th grader is-

P(9) = 0.81 / 1 x 100 = 81%

Probability of using social media by a 8th grader is-

P(8) = 0.84 / 1 x 100 = 84%

We cannot define the usage of social media depending on the grade level.
