When you have 10 to a power the number after will give you the numbers of zeros you need to add or the amount of numbers you have to move the decimal to the left or right.
Answer: 64,000 crickets
Step-by-step explanation: 2 years = 24 months; every 3 months the crickets double in population, therefore the cricket population doubles 8 times. 250 x 2 = 500; 500 x 2 = 1,000; 1,000 x 2 = 2,000; 2,000 x 2 = 4,000; 4,000 x 2 = 8,000; 8,000 x 2 = 16,000; 16,000 x 2 = 32,000; 32,000 x 2 = 64,000
The correct Option is (D) (x+3)(x+5)
Explanation: The factors of the polynomials are:
x^2 + 8x + 15
x^2 + 3x + 5x + 15
x(x+3) + 5(x+3)
Take the common factor out:
(x+3)(x+5) (Option D)
Answer:
1 1/9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If john swims 5/12 of a mile in 3/8 of an hour, then;
5/12 miles = 3/8 hours
TO get the number of miles he swims in an hour, we will say;
x miles = 1 hour
Equating both expressions
5/12 miles = 3/8 hours
x miles = 1 hour
Cross multiply
3/8 x = 5/12
3x/8 = 5/12
3x * 12 = 5 * 8
36x = 40
x = 40/36
x = 10/9
x = 1 1/9
The amount he swims in an hour is 1 1/9 miles
Answer:
The slope would be 5/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula Y=mx+b. m always represents the slope and the b is the intercept. Therefore the slope of this would be 5/2.
