|-3 + 15| what is the sum (answer) ? I think it is 12 but my friend thinks it is 18. Who is right?

Aliun [14]

I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

Explain how to create an equation with infinitely many solutions

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

You can start with any statement in the form a = a. Then add the same variable term to both sides, and add the same constant term to both sides. Combine like terms on each side.

Which graph represents the solution set of this inequality?<br> -3b - 15 > -24

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A

REASON:

It's not B or D because it's increasing and it's not C because if -3 - 15 is -18 then I am pretty sure it's not going to be 3 because it's multiplying

A pond has 150 fish and the population decreases by 8% each day. How many days before there are 30 fish

nlexa [21]

Answer:

19 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = 150$ --- initial

$r = 8\%$ -- rate

Required

Days when the fish gets to 30

The function is exponential and as such it follows;

$y = ab^x$

Where x represents the number of days and y the number of fishes

Because the fishes decreases;

$b = 1 - r$

So, we have:

$b = 1 - 8\%$

Express as decimal

$b = 1 - 0.08$

$b = 0.92$

In $y = ab^x$

$a =150$

$y = 30$

$b = 0.92$

So, we have:

$30 = 150 * 0.92^x$

Divide both sides by 150

$0.2 = 0.92^x$

Take log of both sides

$log(0.2) = log(0.92^x)$

Apply law of logarithm

$log(0.2) = x\ log(0.92)$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{log(0.2)}{log(0.92)}$

$x = \frac{-0.6990}{-0.0362}$

$x = 19.309$

$x \approx 19$

<em>Hence, it takes approximately 19 days</em>
