Stella initially put $5 into a piggy bank. Over the next few years she continued to put all of her coins in the piggy bank, such

that each year the amount of money in the piggy bank doubled. Determine the equation that represents this situation and use it to decide which of the following graphs represents the amount of money, A(x), in Stella's piggy bank after x years.

Answer:

The equation is A(x) = 5(2)ˣ and the graph is Graph Z.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations on compounding interest (which this essentially is) are of the form

A(x) = p(1+r)ˣ, where p is the amount of principal, r is the interest rate and x is the amount of time.

Since Stella begins with $5, the principal is 5.

Since the amount of money doubles each year, this means we add an extra 100%; this makes r equal to 1.

This gives us the equation

A(x) = 5(1+1)ˣ = 5(2)ˣ

This graph will not be linear, as there is not a constant rate of change (there are different amounts added every year).

She begins with $5.  This means the y-intercept of the graph will be 5.

After 1 year, the amount of money doubles; this makes it 10.  The only graph that is not linear and goes through (0, 5) and (1, 10) is graph Z.

Answer: Z.


Step-by-step explanation:

They want you to figure formula then find right graph, but do it fastest way. If it doubles each year, graph can't be straight line, eliminate Y.

A(0) has to be $5, eliminate W. A(1) has to be double A(0), eliminate X. Check: Z shows A(1) is 10, A(2) is 20.

Riya is applying mulch to her garden. she applies it at a rate of 250 , 000 cm 3 250,000 cm 3 250, comma, 000, start text, space
Tatiana [17]

The rate in

\frac{ {m}^{3} }{ {m}^{2} }  \: is \:0.25\frac{ {m}^{3} }{ {m}^{2} }

<h3>How to find rate is riya applying mulch in m^3/m^2 ?</h3>

given that riya applies it at a rate of 250,000 cm^3 of mulch for every m^2 of garden space.

we already know that 1m = 100cm.

so, each side of this cube is 100cm in length.

so,100 \times 100 \times 100 \: {cm}^{3}  \: in \:  {m}^{3}

To find what is the volume in cubic metres.

\frac{250000}{10000000}  =  \frac{1}{4}  = 0.25 \frac{ {m}^{3} }{ { m}^{2} }

so, the rate is0.25 \frac{ {m}^{3} }{ {m}^{2} }

A consumer group is interested in estimating the proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an a
storchak [24]

Answer:  267.

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is no prior information for the population proportion, then the formula we use to find the sample size to estimate the confidence interval :

n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2 , where z* = Critical z-value and E + amrgin of error.

Let p = proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an actual fat content exceeding the fat content stated on the label.

Since , we have no prior information about p. so we use above formula

with E = 0.06 and critical value for 95% confidence =z* =1.96  [By z-table ] , we get

n=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.06})^2=0.25(32.6666)^2\\\\=(0.25)(1067.111111)\\\\=266.777777778\approx267

Hence, the required sample size is 267.
