Answer:

Option 1, 64 bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Geoff planted dahlias in his garden. Dahlias have bulbs that

divide and reproduce underground.

I year production = 8 bulbs

II year = 16 bulbs

III year = 32 bulbs

Thus this follows a geometric progression with common ratio =2

Previous year bulb doubles for production next year

If this trend continues,

in the 6th year he would have = 2^6 = 64 bulbs.

So answer is option 1

64 bulbs.

Answer:

For the first image, the answer should be C) 11 ft.

For the second image, the answer should be C) 6 mi.

For the third image, the answer should be C) 6.9 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First image explaination: To get the area of a rectangle you would multiply length times width. 7 times 11 is the area given: 77- so the answer should be 11 ft.

Second image explaination: Divide 11.4 by 1.9.

Third image explaination: Divide 41.4 by 6.

The radioactive isotope radium has a half-life of 1,600 years. The mass of a 100-gram sample of radium will be______ grams after

Olenka [21]

To solve this we are going to use the half life equation $N(t)=N_{0} e^{( \frac{-0.693t}{t _{1/2} }) }$
Where:
$N_{0}$ is the initial sample
$t$ is the time in years
$t_{1/2}$ is the half life of the substance
$N(t)$ is the remainder quantity after $t$ years

From the problem we know that:
$N_{0} =100$
$t=200$
$t_{1/2} =1600$

Lets replace those values in our equation to find $N(t)$ :
$N(200) =100e^{( \frac{(-0.693)(200)}{1600}) }$
$N(200)=100e^{( \frac{-138.6}{1600} )}$
$N(200)=100e^{-0.086625}$
$N(200)=91.7$

We can conclude that after 1600 years of radioactive decay, the mass of the 100-gram sample will be 91.7 grams.

The angles of elevation froma point X to the top of flagpoles A and B are 35* and 45* respectively. If X lies in the middle of t

BartSMP [9]

Let AB = t. And since X lies in the middle, so AX=BX = t/2 .

Let the height of the smaller flagpole is AO and of larger flagpole is BP .

Using tangent ratio rule in each triangle, we will get

$tan 35 =\frac{AO}{t/2} , tan 45= \frac{BP}{t/2} // AO = \frac{t*tan35}{2}, BP=\frac{t*tan45}{2}$

And there ratio is

$\frac{AO}{BP}= \frac{tan 35}{tan 45}=\frac{0.7}{1}$
