Since ln(x) is the inverse of e^x and we want to find out when P(x)=1000, we will substitute P(x) by 1000 and then solve for x days.

1600e^0.3x = 1000

Divide 600 for both sides you will get:

5/3 = e^0.3x

Multiply ( ln ) for both sides and then divide by 0.3.

(ln 5/3)/(0.3) = x

x = 1.7

So there will be 1000 flies in approximately 1.7 days

Precal : Note: Triangle may not be drawn to scale. Suppose a = 3 and A = 15 degrees
drek231 [11]

Given:

In a right triangle at B,

\begin{gathered} a=3 \\ A=15^{\circ} \end{gathered}

To find:

The length of the sides b and c and angle B.

Explanation:

Using the trigonometric ratio,

\begin{gathered} sinA=\frac{a}{c} \\ \sin15^{\circ}=\frac{3}{c} \\ c=\frac{3}{\sin15^{\circ}} \\ c=11.59 \\ c\approx11.6 \end{gathered}

Using the trigonometric ratio,

\begin{gathered} \tan A=\frac{a}{b} \\ \tan15^{\circ}=\frac{3}{b} \\ b=\frac{3}{\tan15^{\circ}} \\ b=11.19 \\ b\approx11.2 \end{gathered}

Using the angle sum property,

The angle B becomes,

\begin{gathered} 90+15+B=180 \\ B=180-90-15 \\ B=75^{\circ} \end{gathered}

Final answer:

The values are,

\begin{gathered} b=11.2 \\ c=11.6 \\ B=75^{\circ} \end{gathered}

So when you are adding fractions how do you know when you need to simplify the numbers and how do you simplify?
rosijanka [135]

Let's look at an example.

We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8

Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.

To get the denominators to be the same, we can...

  • multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
  • multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48

At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so

8/48  + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48

Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.

The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.

  • 14/2 = 7
  • 48/2 = 24

The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24

Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24

Ciro rounds 280.05 to the nearest integer.
abruzzese [7]
Alrighty, so 280.05 rounded to the nearest integer is 280. 280.05 rounded to tenths is 280.1. add those two together and you get 560.1.
