Australian glitter ants reproduce so that their population doubles every 15 days. If there are 3 ants initially, the equation is

represented by y=3(2)^t/15, where t represents the number of days. Rewrite the equation in the form y=a(1+r)^t and find the daily increase rate represented by r.

Answer:

  4.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

  y = 3×2^(t/15) = 3×(2^(1/15))^t = 3×1.0472941^t

In this form, ...

  1 +r = 1.0472941

  r = .0472941 ≈ 4.73%

The daily increase is about 4.73%.

Answer:

  • The graph has a minimum.
  • The graph has a y-intercept at (0, -3).
  • The solutions ... are -1 and 3.
  • The vertex is located at (1, -4).
  • In the equation, 'a' would be positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the graph has a low point, it has a minimum. 'a' is positive in that case. The coordinates of that low point are (1, -4). That point is the vertex.

The graph crosses the y-axis at y = -3, so the y-intercept is (0, -3).

The graph crosses the x-axis at (-1, 0) and (3, 0). These points represent the solution to the equation y = 0.

  • The graph has a minimum.
  • The graph has a y-intercept at (0, -3).
  • The solutions ... are -1 and 3.
  • The vertex is located at (1, -4).
  • In the equation, 'a' would be positive.

3y=11-2x, 3x=y-11 linear equation solve using the algebraic method check solution
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

(x, y) = (- 2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

3y = 11 - 2x → (1)

3x = y - 11 → (2)

Rearrange (2) expressing y in terms of x

add 11 to both sides

y = 3x + 11 → (3)

Substitute y = 3x + 11 into (1)

3(3x + 11) = 11 - 2x

9x + 33 = 11 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )

11x + 33 = 11 ( subtract 33 from both sides )

11x = - 22 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 in (3) for corresponding value of y

y = (3 × - 2) + 11 = - 6 + 11 = 5

As a check

substitute x = - 2, y = 5 into (1) and (2) and if the left side equals the right side then these values are the solution.

(1) :  left side = (3 × 5) = 15

right side = 11 - (2 × - 2) = 11 + 4 = 15 ⇒ left = right

(2) : left side = (3 × - 2 ) = - 6

right side = 5 - 11 = - 6 ⇒ left = right

solution = (- 2, 5 )

Please help.<br> Its a True or False question.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

1. False

2. True

3. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The point of this question is to encourage you to make use of your calculator. Every calculator can find square roots as far as I know.

Givens

\sqrt{70} = 8.367

\sqrt{72} = 8.49

\sqrt{77} = 8.77

One

Point A is roughly 8.15. The square root of 70 is over 8.3 So square root 70 is to the right of point A. False.

Two

Square root 72 is 8.49. B is 8.3 and C is 8.6. The statement is True

Three

sqrt(77) = 8.77. Point D is 8.75.  The answer is true, but I wouldn't want to bet money on it. The difference is slightly less than 2 100s.

Georgina knows the inequality is true, but she cannot remember what number is in the denominator.
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

<h3>D. 12</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Which number could be the missing number?

Given the inequality expression, 1/10 > 1/ ?

We are to fine the missing number that will make the inequality true;

Cross multiply:

1 * x > 1*10

x > 10

Hence the value of x greater than 10 is the answer. From the options, the only value greater than 10 is 12. Hence 12 is the correct answer.
