Answer:

9° Celsius

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The heated piece of metal cools according to the function,

C(x)=(0.5)^{x-9}

After adding the device that cools according the function,

h(x)=-x-2

The new function that shows the final temperature of the metal,

f(x)=C(x)+h(x)  ( Let )

=(0.5)^{x-9}-x-2

Hence, the temperature of the metal after five hours would be,

f(3) = (0.5)^{5-9}-5-2 =0.5^{-4}-7=(\frac{1}{2})^{-4}-7=2^4-7=16-7=9^{\circ}\text{ Celsius}

Third Option is correct.

Vikentia [17]

ok you need formula for surface area.

SA = πrh+2πr^2

Plug in 25 and 5

SA = 2π(5)(25)+2π(5)^2

SA = 10pi*25 + 2pi(25)

SA = 250pi + 50pi

SA = 300pi

Hope this helps :)

PLEASE HELP ME ON THIS AND SHOW UR WORK<br> THX

When an exponential function is given as 
f(x)=ab^x, and
knowing that b^0=1, that means that
f(0)=ab^0=a  value of function when x=0, or the initial value.
In the case of
f(x)=20.b^x, f(0)=20.b^0 = 20  (initial value)

If b=1.2, then the hourly growth rate is (1.2-1)=0.2=20%.
If b=1.85, then the hourly growth rate is (1.85-1)=0.85=85%.
