Answer:

f(x) = \dfrac{729}{3^x}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of schools in the starting of the competition = 729

Number of schools remaining after each round =

\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ of the school in previous round}

We have to model an exponential function to describe the number of school remaining after x rounds.

F(x) = 729(\dfrac{1}{3})^x\\\\f(x) = \dfrac{729}{3^x}

is the required function, where f(x) gives the number of school remaining after x rounds.

Brain enjoys hang gliding on his last flight, he jumped off a cliff 520 high he landed 450 from the base of the cliff how far di
belka [17]

Answer:

Brain travelled 687.68 from the cliff.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of the cliff = 520

Base of the cliff = 450

The distance will form the hypotenuse of right angled triangle.

Pythagorean theorem states square of hypotenuse of right angled triangle is equal to the sum of squares of base and height of triangle.

Using pythagorean theorem;

a = 520, b=450, c = hypotenuse

a^2+b^2=c^2\\(520)^2+(450)^2=c^2\\270400+202500=c^2\\472900=c^2\\c^2=472900

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{472900}\\c=687.68

Hence,

Brain travelled 687.68 from the cliff.

oee [108]
Rule of 72 says to divide 72 by the rate of return and that will be the number of years an investment will double
 so 72 / 9.6 = 7.5 years to double

7.5 * 2 = 15 years

18-3 = 15

 the answer is: <span>Yes, the $15,000 will double each 7.5 years. In 15 years, it will double twice.</span>
