Answer:
There were 10 flies originally
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have an exponential growth, we will be having a constant percentage of increase and we can set up the increase at any day using the following equation;
V = I(1+r)^d
where V is the number of flies on a particular day
I is the initial number of flies
r is the constant increase in percentage
and d is the number of days.
So we have for the second day;
60 = I(1+r)^2 ••••••(i)
For the fourth day, we have;
360 = I(1+r)^4 ••••••••(ii)
divide equation ii by i; we have;
360/60 = (1+r)^4/(1+r)^2
6 = (1+r)^2
(√6)^2 = (1+r)^2
1 + r = √6
r = √6 - 1
So we can substitute the value of r in any of the equations to get I which is the initial number of flies
Let’s use equation 1
60 = I(1 + r)^2
60 = I(1 + √6 -1)^2
60 = I(√6)^2
60 = 6I
I = 60/6
I = 10 flies
Answer:
The equation is y = x + 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to equation of SR
Slope = slope of UV = 3/2
= 1.
One point on SR is (-2, 7) so using the point-slope form of the equation:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Here m = 1, x1 = -2, y1 = 7:
y - 7 = 1(x - (-2))
y - 7 = x + 2
y = x + 9
Answer:
the 13th one is 115
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, create an equation that follows 45% of a value is 18. This would look like x*.45=18. Now, solve for x, x*.45=18, divide by .45, x=18/.45=40, making your value 40. To check, plug in your value to the equation 40*.45=18 and see if it stays true.
f(x) = 5x − 1 and g(x) = 2x^2 + 1
(f × g)(x) = (5x − 1)(2x^2 + 1)
(f × g)(x) = 10x^3 - 2x^2 + 5x - 1
Substitute x = - 3
(f × g)(-3) = 10(-3)^3 - 2(-3)^2 + 5(-3) - 1
(f × g)(-3) = 10(-27) - 2(9) -15 - 1
(f × g)(-3) =-270 - 18 - 16
(f × g)(-3) = -236
Answer
- 236
