Answer:

1) d. 2400

2) d.4200

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given data:

F(x) represents number of fish

x represents number of weeks

Relation between F(x) and x is given as

F(x)= 500 (1.2)x

Now part 1:

How many fish are in the pond after 4 weeks=?

x=4

Putting in given equation  F(x)= 500 (1.2)x

F(x)= 500(1.2)(4)

     = 2400

Now part 2:

How many fish are in the pond after 7 weeks?

x=7

Putting in given equation  F(x)= 500 (1.2)x

F(x)= 500(1.2)(7)

     = 4200 !

Answer:

Correct choice is b. 1036 fish.

and c. 1791 fish.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is f(x)=500(1.2)^x.

There x represents number of weeks. We need to find about wow many fish are in the pond after 4 weeks.

To find that we will plug x=4 into above formula and simplify

f(x)=500(1.2)^x

f(x)=500(1.2)^{4}

f(x)=500(2.0736)

f(x)=1036.8

Which is approx 1036

Hence correct choice is b. 1036 fish.

------

We can repeat same process with x=7 for 2nd problem

f(x)=500(1.2)^{7}=1791.5904

Hence correct choice is c. 1791 fish.

Which is the best interpretation of the solution set for the compound inequality?
saw5 [17]

For this case we must find the solution set of the given inequalities:

Inequality 1:

3 (2x + 1)> 21

Applying distributive property on the left side of inequality:

6x + 3> 21

Subtracting 3 from both sides of the inequality:

6x> 21-3\\6x> 18

Dividing by 6 on both sides of the inequality:

x> \frac {18} {6}\\x> 3

Thus, the solution is given by all the values of "x" greater than 3.

Inequality 2:

4x + 3

Subtracting 3x from both sides of the inequality:

4x-3x + 3

Subtracting 3 from both sides of the inequality:

x

Thus, the solution is given by all values of x less than 4.

The solution set is given by the union of the two solutions, that is, all real numbers.

Answer:

All real numbers

Tim installs 50 square feet on his floor in 45 minutes. At this rate, how long does it take him to install 495 square feet?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

445.5 minutes

or 7 hours 25 minutes 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve

50 ft^2           495 ft^2

--------------  = ------------

45 minutes    x minutes

Using cross products

50x = 45*495

50x=22275

Divide each side by 50

50x/50 = 22275/50

x =445.5

445.5 minutes

If we want to convert to hours and minutes, divide by 60

7 hours is 420 minutes

445.5 -420 = 25.5

7 hours 25 minutes

.5 minutes is 30 seconds

7 hours 25 minutes 30 seconds
