The whole melon = 5/5

ONE piece went to four children, so

how much of the melon the children got = 1/5

5/5 - 1/5 = 4/5

With 4/5 of the melon, she made 3 fruit cups

4/5 / 3 = 4/5 x 1/3 = 4/15

so she put 4/15 of the melon in the fruit cups

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is the third option,

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement we know the function that models the population growth over the years (p(x)) but we have been told that there is an estimated loss that can be modeled by the function L(p), so in order to find which function represents the final function, we need to composite the function, which is the same that evaluate p(x) into the function L(p).

We are given:

p(x)=2.5(1.082)^{x}

and

L(p(x))=p(0.97)

So, the evaluationg p(x) into L(p), we have:

L(p(x))=p(0.97)\\\\L(p(x))=2.5(1.082)^{x}*(0.97)=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x} \\\\L(p(x))=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x}=2.425(1.082)^{x}\\\\L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

Hence, the correct option is:

The third option,  

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

Have a nice day!

How to solve it in quadratic functions
natita [175]

Answer:

x = 2

x = -3/2 or -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, I would use the "slip and slide" method. LOL I know the name is cheesy, but that's what my teacher called it!

First, you "slip" the coefficent of the leading term (2) to the constant, and multiply.

The equation becomes:

x² - x - 6(2) = 0

x² - x - 12 = 0

Then, you factor this out by looking at the second and third terms. You're looking for 2 factors of -12 that would add up to -1 ( the coefficent of the second term).

Automatically, think of 3 and 4, because the difference between them is 1.

The factors must be (x-4) and (x+3) because they multiple to -12, and add up to -1.

This step is extremely important! Lol I used to forget it a lot, but make sure you divide the constant in each factor by the original number you "slipped".

It would become (x-(4/2))(x+3/2) = (x-2)(x+3/2)

With (x+3/2), you don't want to leave it as a fraction or decimal. It's equivalent to (2x+3). However, the informal form is easier to identify the value of x.
