This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.
So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.
There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.
Use photo math it works well
7 apples = 4.55
To find the single cost of an apple, divide 4.55 by 7
4.55/7 = 0.65 per apple
Let's check to see if this is right.
0.65 x 7 = 4.55 = correct
0.65 x 9 = $5.85 for 9 apples
Ok the answer to your question is -25
Idk! Is there a picture to show us?
