Answer:
a.) w = 103 * 1.08^t
b.) 3.5weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
If Her current weight is 103 pounds and she hopes to multiply her her weight each week by 1.08, then
her weight after 1 week = 103 * 1.08 = 103 * 1.08¹
Her weight after 2 weeks = [weight of week 1] * 1.08 = [103* 1.08] * 1.08 = 103 * 1.08²
Weight after 3 weeks= [weight of week 2] * 1.08 = [103 * 1.08 * 1.08] * 1.08 = 103 * 1.08³
Hence weight (W) after t weeks = 103 * 1.08^t
b.) If W = 135, Then
103 * 1.08^t = 135
1.08^t = 135/103
1.08^t = 1.31
Taking log of both sides,
log 1.08^t = log 1.31
t log 1.08 = log 1.32
t = log 1.32/log 1.08
t = 3.5 weeks.
Hence, it will take her 3½ weeks to get to 135pounds weight.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for triangle= 1/2*base*height
=1/2*8*5
=20
8hrs = 480mins
6hrs = 360 mins
472/480 = 0.983...
0.983... x 360 = 354
D) 354
