We have to answer what does the 15 represent in the function : f ( x ) = 15 * 2^x, which models the increasing of the frog population at a lake. We know that the frog population doubles every 3 weeks and that: f ( 6 ) = 960. It means that: 15 * 2^ 6 = 15 * 64 = 960. And also f ( 0 ) = 15 * 2^0 = 15 * 1 = 15. Therefore it is a starting population. Answer: The 15 represents <span>B - The starting population.</span>
The answer is $2.50 because you do 145-132.50=12.5
Then you divide by 5 because that’s the difference between students then the final answer is 2.50
Tan(x)= 33/105
x = arctan(33/105)
x = 17.44718842 degrees.
We define the variables:
p: cost of bushel of peaches
w: cost of watermelon
We wrote the system of equations:
12p + 5w = 150
15p + 8w = 198
We can represent the system in matrix form as
Ax = b
Where,
A = [12 5; 15 8]
b = [150; 198]
x = [p; w]
