Answer:

  • 19.017 in 34 hours
  • 2,097,152 in 1 week

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. When the population doubles, it is multiplied by 2. The number of times the population has doubled will be an exponent of 2.

<h3>a)</h3>

In 34 hours, the population will have doubled 34/8 = 4.25 times. The multiplier is 2 with an exponent of 4.25:

 factor = 2^4.25 ≈ 19.027

__

<h3>b)</h3>

The population will double 24/8 = 3 times each day. After 7 days, the population will have doubled 7×3 = 21 times. The multiplication factor is ...

  factor = 2^21 = 2,097,152

1. Each kid eats the same amount of food each morning.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

a) One kid eat tubs of yogurt = 1.3 tub of yogurt

b) One kid eat granola = 3.33 ounces

c) cost to feed one kid each morning is $1.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Three kids eat tubs of yogurt = 4

Three kids eat granola = 10 ounces

Cost of one tub of yogurt = 54 cents

Cost of 10 ounces of cereal = $1.26

a) One kid eats how many tubs of yogurt in a morning?

Three kids eat tubs of yogurt = 4

One kid eat tubs of yogurt = 4/3

                                            = 1.3 tub of yogurt

b) How many ounces of granola does a kid eat each morning?

Three kids eat granola = 10 ounces

One kid eat granola = 10/3

                                  = 3.33 ounces

c) How much does it cost to feed one kid each morning?

Cost of 1 tub of yogurt = 54 cents

Cost of 1.3 tub of yogurt = 54*1.3 = 70.2 cents

Converting cents to dollar:

100 cents = 1 dollar

70.2 cents = $0.7

So, Cost of 1.3 tub of yogurt (for one kid)= $0.7

Cost of 10 ounces of cereal = 1.26

Cost of 1 ounce of cereal = 1.26/10

Cost of 3.33 ounces of cereal = (1.26/10)*3.33

                                                 = $0.42

Cost of 3.33 ounces of cereal (for one kid) = $0.42

Total cost for each kid = $0.42+$0.7 = $1.12

So, cost to feed one kid each morning is $1.12
