12% of what number is 18...." of " means multiply, " is " means equals
0.12x = 18
x = 18/0.12
x = 150

check..
12% of 150 = 18
0.12(150) = 18
18 = 18 (correct)

yep...its 150

Answer:

k = 0.032
P0 = 131.836

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to use the points (t, P) = (4, 150) and (6, 160) to find the parameters P0 and k in the equation ...

$P(t)=P_0\cdot e^{kt}$

We know from the given points that we can write the equation as ...

$P(t)=150\left(\dfrac{160}{150}\right)^{(t-4)/(6-4)}=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{t}{2}-2}\\\\=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\times\left(\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}\right)^t$

Comparing this to the desired form, we see that ...

$P_0=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\approx 131.836\\\\e^{k}=\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{1/2}\rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}(\ln{16}-\ln{15})\approx 0.0322693$

So, the approximate equation for P is ...

$P(t)=131.836\cdote^{0.032t}$

And the parameters of interest are ...

k = 0.032
P0 = 131.836

Answer:

x-intercept is x = -4; y-intercept is y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The zero or x-intercept is when the line touches the x-axis or horizontal line axis or is when y = 0.

x = -4

2.

The y-intercept is when the line touches the y-axis or vertical line axis or is when x = 0.

y = -2

Tina bought 3 1/2 pounds of turkey and 2 1/4 pounds of cheese she. Used 1 1/2 pounds of cheese to make macaroni and cheese how m

muminat

Answer:6/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/4 - 1 1/2

- 2 times 4 plus 1 = 9/4

- 1 times 2 plus 1 = 3/2

9/4 - 3/2

-to subtract your fraction, you need to have the same denominator in each side

- 4 times 2 = 8 (this is your denominator)

- 4 times 3 = 12 (your right numerator)

- 2 times 9 = 18 (your left numerator)

18/8 - 12/8 = 6/8
