Word Problem:
Take a number, <em>x</em>, double it and then take that result away from 10.
Expression:
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
You know when it is a periodic function if the values repeats in regular intervals or periods. An example of this is trigonometric functions that repeat over intervals of 2 pi radians.
