Based on the information, there were initially 1200 ferns; the monthly percent rate of change is 68% and this situation is modeled by an exponential growth function

<h3>How to complete the information?</h3>

The given parameters from the question are:

P(n) = 1200(1.68)^n

Where

n represent the number of months

An exponential growth function is represented as:

P(n) = a * (1 + r)^n

Where

a represents the initial value

r represents the rate

By comparison, we have

a = 1200

1 + r = 1.68

This gives

r = 0.68 = 68%

Hence, there were initially 1200 ferns; the monthly percent rate of change is 68% and this situation is modeled by an exponential growth function

Move all the logarithms on the left hand side, and all the constants on the other:

$\log_2(x-2) - \log_2(x) = -1$

Use the rule of logarithms

$\log_a(b) - \log_a(c) = \log_a\left(\dfrac{b}{c}\right)$

To rewrite the equation as

$\log_2\left(\dfrac{x-2}{x}\right) = -1$

Evaluate 2 to the power of each side:

$\dfrac{x-2}{x} = 2^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{2}$

Multiply both sides by 2x:

$2(x-2) = x \iff 2x-4 = x \iff x = 4$

Joseph walks at a constant speed. He walked to a store that is 0.5 miles away in 6 minutes. How many miles, m, can he walk in t

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if he can walk 0.5 miles in 6 minutes at a constant rate then you can say that he can walk 1 mile in 12 minutes.

therefore he can walk 1/12 mile ever one minute

so m=1/12t

The lines y1 = 2x - 6, y2 = -3x + 4, y3 = -1/2x + 4 intersect to form the sides of a right triangle. Find the perimeter and area

tino4ka555 [31]

The area and perimeter of the triangle is 2/5 square units and (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units

<h3>Determining the perimeter and area of the triangle giving line equation</h3>

In order to determine the area and perimeter of the lines, we will plot the giving lines, determine the point of intersection and then use the Pythagoras theorem to determine the dimension of the right triangle.

The points of intersection of the line are;

(x₁, y₁) = (- 0.4, 5.2),

(x₂, y₂) = (-0.8, 4.4),

(x₃, y₃) = (0, 4)

Determine the base

b² = c² -a²

b = √(-0.8)² + (4 - 4.4)²

b = 2√5 / 5

Determine the height

h = √((- 0.4) - (- 0.8))² + (5.2 - 4.4)²

height = 2√5 / 5

For the hypotenuse

r = √2 · b

r = 2√10 / 5

<h3>Determine the Perimeter and area</h3>

Perimeter = s1+s2+s3

Perimeter = 2√5 / 5 + 2√5 / 5 + 2√10 / 5

Perimeter = (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units

area = 1/2* base * height

A = 0.5 · (2√5 / 5) · (2√5 / 5)

A = 2/5 square units

Hence the area and perimeter of the triangle is 2/5 square units and (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units
