Lily pads increase by 25% every 10 days.lf a pond starts with 22 lily pads,how many will there be after 50 days?

Mathematics

Fantom [35]1 year ago

We conclude that after 50 days, there will be 67 lily pads.

<h3>how many will there be after 50 days?</h3>

We know that the number increases by 25% every 10 days.

In 50 days we have 5 groups of 10 days, so there will be five increases of 25%.

We know that the initial number is 22 lily pads, if we apply five consecutive increases of the 25% we get:

N = 22*(1 + 25%/100)*...*(1 + 25%/100%)

( the factor (1 + 25%/100%) appears five times)

So we can rewrite:

N = 22*(1 + 25%/100%)⁵

N = 22*(1 + 0.25)⁵ = 67.1

Which can be rounded to the nearest whole number, which is 67.

So we conclude that after 50 days, there will be 67 lily pads.

There is a bag filled with 4 blue, 3 red and 5 green marbles.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

1/11

Step-by-step explanation

There are 12 marbles in the bag. When we first pick we have 4 blue marbles. So 4 blue marbles/12 random marbles. When we pick blue and noted, there are 3 marbles in the bag because of we didn't put it back. So when we choose again there are 11 marbles and 3 blue marbles in the bag. Choosing a blue one case is 3/11.

The last part of this case is happening as a chain. So we need to multiply our two answers.

=4/12*3/11

=1/3*3/11

=1/11

The weight, w, of a spring in pounds is given by 0.9 times the square root of the energy, E, stored by the spring in joules. If
frutty [35]
For this case we have the following equation:
 w = 0.9* \sqrt{E}
 Where,
 w: The weight of a spring in pounds
 E: the energy stored by the spring in joules.
 Substituting values we have:
 w = 0.9* \sqrt{12}
 Making the corresponding calculation:
 w=3.12
 Answer:
 
the approximate weight of the spring in pounds is:
 
w=3.12
