The answer should be H= 7.9
To find the answer
Divide 4 1/2 minutes by 3/4 meters
First convert 4 1/2 to an improper fraction, which is 9/2
Then divide it, or cross-multiply it with 3/4
(9/2) / (3/4) or (9/2) * (4/3)
= 36/6
Which equals 6
So the answer is
1 meter every 6 minutes
Or if you want it the other way around
1/6 meters per minute
What are you solving for? For y: y=x or for x: x=y
You are right: the graph does not represent a proportion, because it does not go thru the origin.
Given:
The insect population function is:
Where x is the number of weeks.
To find:
The population after 4 weeks.
Solution:
The population of insect after x weeks is given by:
We need to find the population after 4 weeks.
After substituting , we get
The population after 4 weeks is 160. Therefore, the correct option is C.
