Osama starts with a population of 1,000 amoebas that increases 30% in size every hour for a number of hours, h. The expression 1

,000(1+0.3)h finds the number of amoebas after h hours. Which statement about this expression is true?
A. It is the product of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.


B. It is the sum of the initial population and the percent increase.


C. It is the initial population raised to the growth factor after h hours.


D. It is the sum of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

Answer: The correct option is A, itis the product of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

Explanation:

From the given information,

Initial population = 1000

Increasing rate or growth rate = 30% every hour.

No of population increase in every hour is,

1000\times \frac{30}{100} =1000\times 0.3

Total population after h hours is,

1000(1+0.3)^h

It is in the form of,

P(t)=P_0(t)(1+r)^t

Where P_0(t) is the initial population, r is increasing rate, t is time and [tex(1+r)^t[/tex]  is the growth factor after time t.

In the above equation 1000 is the initial population and (1+0.3)^h is the growth factor after h hours. So the equation is product of of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

Therefore, the correct option is A, itis the product of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

A circular picture is 8 inches in diameter.
velikii [3]

The formula of an area of a circle with radius r:


A=\pi r^2


Part A.

We have diameter of the circle d = 8 in. The diameter of a circle is equal two times length of a radius.

Therefore:


r=\dfrac{d}{2}\to r=\dfrac{8}{2}=4\ in


Calculate the area:


A=\pi\cdot4^2=16\pi\ in^2


Answer: C. 16π square inches.


Part 2.

Look at the picture.


Total area:


A=\pi\cdot6^2=36\pi\ in^2


Answer: C. 36π square inches

Can someone help me one these two​
strojnjashka [21]

On the top problem:  Angle A and Angle B are a right angle so it equals 90 degrees.  If Angle B is 50 degrees that makes Angle A 40 degrees.  Angle A and Angle C is a straight line and equals 180 degrees so if Angle A equals 40 degrees that means Angle C equals 140 degrees.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

12 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Ian tosses a bone up in the air for his dog, Spot. The height, h, in feet, that Spot is above the ground at the time t seconds after she jumps for the bone can be representedh(t)=-16t^2+20t.

What is Spot's average rate of ascent, in feet per second, from the time she jumps into the air to the time she catches the bone at t=1/2?  

We will use average rate of change formula to solve our given problem.

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{h(\frac{1}{2})-h(0)}{\frac{1}{2}-0}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{-16\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^2+20\cdot \frac{1}{2}-(-16\cdot(0)^2+20\cdot (0))}{\frac{1}{2}-0}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{-16\cdot\frac{1}{4}+10-(0)}{\frac{1}{2}}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{-4+10}{\frac{1}{2}}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{6}{\frac{1}{2}}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{2\cdot 6}{1}

\text{Average rate of change}=12

Therefore, Spot's average rate of ascent is 12 feet per second.
