In this item if we let x be the number of doubling period, that is number of days divided by 3, and y be the height of the bamboo shoot, in the equation
                                     y  = ab^x
The value of a is 5 because that is the original height of the shoot and b is 2 because we are talking about the doubling rate. The equation is therefore,
                                    y = 5(2^x)

Answer:

Chief Hopper

Explanation:

Mike travels at a constant speed of 3.1 m/s.  To find how long it takes him to reach the school, we need to find the distance he travels.  We can do this using Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²

(1000 m)² + (900 m)² = c²

c ≈ 1345 m

So the time is:

v = d / t

3.1 m/s = 1345 m / t

t ≈ 434 s

Next, Chief Hopper travels a total distance of 1900 m, starting at rest and accelerating at 0.028 m/s².  So we can use constant acceleration equation to find the time.

d = v₀ t + ½ at²

1900 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.028 m/s²) t²

t ≈ 368 s

So Chief Hopper reaches the school first, approximately 66 seconds before Mike does.

What is the density of an object that has a mass of 10 g and a volume
Korolek [52]

2g/mL

Explanation:

Given parameters :

Mass = 10g

Volume = 5mL

Unknown:

Density of the object  = ?

Solution:

Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a body.

  Density = \frac{mass}{Volume}

Now, input the values in the equation:

   Density = \frac{10}{5} = 2g/mL

There are pluses and minuses to being a competitive person.<br> True <br> False
melomori [17]
True, because being a competitive person means that you like challenging yourself to do more things, but if you’re really competitive you might challenge yourself too hard, and might hurt yourself, which will make you not want to really compete with anything anymore
