The height of a tree in feet over x years is modeled by the function f(x). f(x)=301+29e−0.5x which statements are true about the

growth of the tree? select each correct answer. the tree's maximum height is limited to 30 ft. the tree is initially 2 ft tall. between the 5th and 7th years, the tree grows approximately 7 ft. after growing 15 ft, the tree's rate of growth decreases.

Given this equation:

f(x)=301+29^{-0.5x}

That represents t<span>he height of a tree in feet over (x) years. Let's analyze each statement according to figure 1 that shows the graph of this equation.
</span>
The tree's maximum height is limited to 30 ft.

As shown in figure below, the tree is not limited, so this statement is false.

<span>The tree is initially 2 ft tall

The tree was planted in x = 0, so evaluating the function for this value, we have:

</span>f(0)=301+29^{-0.5(0)}=301+1=302ft
<span>
<span>So, the tree is initially \boxed{302ft} tall.
</span>
Therefore this statement is false.

</span>Between the 5th and 7th years, the tree grows approximately 7 ft.
<span>
if x = 5 then:

</span>f(5)=301+29^{-0.5(5)}=301ft<span>

</span>if x = 7 then:

f(7)=301+29e^{0.5(7)}=301ft

So, between the 5th and 7th years the height of the tree remains constant
:
\Delta=f(7)-f(5)=301-301=0ft

This is also a false statement.

<span>After growing 15 ft, the tree's rate of growth decreases.</span>

It is reasonable to think that the height of this tree finally will be 301ft. Why? well, if x grows without bound, then the term 29^{-\infty} approaches zero.

Therefore this statement is also false.

Conclusion: After being planted this tree won't grow.

Answer:


After growing 15 ft, the tree's rate of growth decreases.

The Tree's maximum height is limited to 30 ft.

Between the 5th and 7th years, the tree grows approximately 7 ft.

Help could you explain step by step?
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

x = 2 , y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other , then

PT = TR , that is

y = 5x + 1 → (1)

QT = TS , that is

2y = 6x + 10 → (2)

substitute y = 5x + 1 into (2)

2(5x + 1) = 6x + 10

10x + 2 = 6x + 10 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

4x + 2 = 10 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

4x = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 2

substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

substituting into (1)

y = 5(2) + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11

If line segment BH = 3, line segment BF = 10, line segment GH= 2, find HD 15 11 10.5 ?
pav-90 [236]

HD = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given BH = 3, GH = 2, BF = 10

Step 1: To find HF:

HF = BF – BH

HF = 10 – 3

HF = 7

Step 2: To find HD:

We know that if two chords intersects inside a circle, the product of the lengths of the segments of one chord equals the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord.

⇒ GH × HD = BH × HF

⇒ 2 × HD = 3 × 7

⇒ HD = 10.5

Hence, the value of HD = 10.5.
