If the population quadruples every period say hour, that means the "rate of growth" is 300%, so whatever the current amount, increased by 3 times as much is 4 times the current amount, or a quadrupled amount.

\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^t\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &74\\
r=rate\to 300\%\to \frac{300}{100}\to &3.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=74(1+3)^t\implies A=74(4)^t

Finding an Equation of a tangent Line in Exercise, find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of the function at the give
frutty [35]

Answer:

y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{4}{e}

this is the equation of the tangent at point (-1,1/e)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the tangent line we need to find the derivative of the function g(x).

g(x) =e^{x^3}

  • we know that \frac{d}{dx}(e^{f(x)})=e^{f(x)}f'(x)

g'(x) =e^{x^{3}}(3 x^{2})

g'(x) =3 x^{2} e^{x^{3}}

this the equation of the slope of the curve at any point x and it also the slope of the tangent at any point x. hence, g'(x) can be denoted as 'm'

to find the slope at (-1,1/e) we'll use the x-coordinate of the point i.e. x = -1

m =3 (-1)^{2} e^{(-1)^{3}}\\m =3e^{-1}\\m=\dfrac{3}{e}

using the equation of line:

(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)

we'll find the equation of the tangent line.

here (x1,y1) =(-1,1/e), and m = 3/e

(y-\dfrac{1}{e})=\dfrac{3}{e}(x+1)\\y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{3}{e}+\dfrac{1}{e}\\

y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{4}{e}

this is the equation of the tangent at point (-1,1/e)

Solve the system of equations.
Alenkasestr [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Substitute x from the second equation into the second one</u>

2x - 9y = 14

2(-6y + 7) - 9y = 14

(2 * -6y) + (2 * 7) - 9y = 14

-12y + 14 - 9y = 14

-21y +14 - 14 = 14 - 14

-21y/-21 = 0 / -21

y = 0

<u>Step 2:  Substitute y into the second equation</u>

x = -6y + 7

x = -6(0) + 7

x = 0 + 7

x = 7

Answer:  x = 7, y = 0

Katyanochek1 [597]
Well, in order to answer this problem we need to use the <span>the Pythagorean Theorem and the  it will be like this:
cos = x / hypotenuse
cos= 12/13 
I think with this you can figure the rest out. Hope this helps</span>
