f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

Using the information given above, complete the following statements. The percent change is %. The percent change represents .

f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

Given equation is an exponential function and in the form of f(x) = a(1-r)^x

Where 'a' is the initial population

'r' is the decay rate

'x' is the time

f(x) = a(1-r)^x

Given function is f(x)=2,459(0.92)^t

1 - r = 0.92

r = 1 - 0.92

r = 0.08

r= 0.08 %

Percentage change = 0.08%

Percentage change represents the decay rate.

Answer:

8%, the rate at which the population is decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the equation <em>f(x)</em>=2,459(0.92)^t

0.92 represents the rate of change.

Because 0.92 is less than 1, it represents a decrease.

To calculate the rate of decay, subtract 0.92 from 1 (1 - 0.92 = 0.08)

To convert the rate of decay to percent, move the decimal to the right two spaces.

The answer is 8%, which represents the rate at which the population is decreasing.

Well, its kind of obivious that 2x + 4 stands out, but I think you are asking why. Whereas all other lines shown are vertical or horizontal, 2x+4 is diagonal.

Chef Andy needed to adapt his recipes for his European kitchen staff in Paris. He was​ 1-pound portions of​ entrecote, 2 ounces
Ronch [10]

Answer:

1 pound = 0.454 kilograms

1 ounce = 0.0296 liters

1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to convert the quantities to their corresponding unit.

Convert pounds to kilograms (For the entrecote)

1 pound = 0.454 kilograms

Thus, 1 pound of entrecote = 0.454 kilograms

Ounces to liters (for the Béarnaise, since it is a liquid)

1 ounce = 0.0296 liters

2 ounces of Béarnaise = 0.0592 liters

Ounces to kilograms (for the asparagus)

1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms

4 ounces of asparagus =0.1132 kilograms

Trigonometric identities assignment 4
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

<em>Answer: choice D.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Functions</u>

We need to recall some properties and definitions of the trigonometric functions.

\displaystyle \tan \theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}

\displaystyle \sec \theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}

We need to simplify the following expression:

5\sin\theta\sec\theta

Substituting the identity for the secant:

\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\sin\theta.\frac{1}{\cos\theta}

Operating:

\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}

Substituting the definition of the tangent:

\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\tan\theta

Correct choice D.
