Part A: After 9 days the radius of algae was approximately 12.81 mm. The reasonable domain to point is (0,9).
Part B: The 9 on the y-intercept represents the amount of algae the experiment started with.
Part C: (12.81-10.12)/7=0.38
A+b+c=28x+40=180
—>28x=140
—>x=140/28=5

- 1 1/3 - 2 1/5
= -4/3 - 11/5
= -20/15 - 33/15
= -53/15
= -3 8/15 mg/L
Answers:
k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10
===============================
Work Shown:
note: you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"
f(x) = x^2+3x-10
f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5
f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10
f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10
f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30
Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13
Factor and solve the equation below
x^2+13x+30 = 0
(x+10)(x+3) = 0
x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -10 or x = -3
The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
