Rate for Sally is 1 room per 8hrs
rate for Steve is 1 room per 7hrs

combined rate:
1/8 + 1/7 = 1/T
7/56 + 8/56 = 1/T
15/56 = 1/T
56/15 = T
3 11/15 = 3 hrs 44 min

A farmer estimates that he has 9,000 bees producing honey on his farm. The farmer becomes concerned when he realizes the populat
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

  • The function f(x) = 9,000(0.95)^x represents the situation.
  • After 2 years, the farmer can estimate that there will be about 8,120 bees remaining.
  • The range values, in the context of the situation, are limited to whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

The "growth" rate is -5%, so the growth factor, the base in the exponential equation, is 1.00-5% =0.95.

Using x=2, we find the population in 2 years is expected to be about ...

  f(2) = 9000·0.95^2 ≈ 8123 . . . . about 8120

Using x=4, we find the population in 4 years is expected to be about ...

  f(4) = 9000·0.95^4 ≈ 7331 . . . . about 7330

Since population is whole numbers of bees, the range of the function is limited to whole numbers.

The domain of the function is numbers of years. Years can be divided into fractions as small as you want, so the domain is not limited to whole numbers.

The choices listed above are applicable to the situation described.

Emilie rides her bike x miles before she gets a flat tire. She walks 1/3mile to a bus stop and then takes a bus for 2 1/2miles.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Given :

Emilie rides her bike x miles before she gets a flat tire.

She walks 1/3 mile to a bus stop and then takes a bus for 2 1/2 miles.

To Find :

Which expression shows how many miles Emilie travels in all.

Solution :

We know, total distance covered is given by sum of all the distance she travelled.

Distance covered, D = x + 1/3 + 2 1/2

D = x + 1/3 + 5/2

D = (6x + 2 + 15)/6

D = (6x + 17)/6

Therefore, total distance travelled by Emilie is (6x + 17)/6 .
