Well, for number 15, this is what I came up with, I hope it is what your teacher is looking for:
So it starts out with 3 butterflies, and it doubles every minute:
3x2 = 6 That is for the first minute
6x2 = 12 That is for the second minute
12x2 = 24 That is for the third minute
24x2 = 48 That is for the fourth minute
So, It asks for using the power of 2 in your answer, that is what I came up with for part A.
For part B I would say something like this:
X represents the number of butterflies left.
The equation, using the information above would be this:
48-7 = X
Then simplify, which would leave you with 41 butterflies.
I hope this helps! :)
Answer:
-2, -1 , 0 , and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The original volume of the balloon is given by:
V1 = (4/3) * (pi) * (r ^ 3)
Where,
r: radius of the sphere.
Substituting values:
V1 = (4/3) * (pi) * (1 ^ 3)
V1 = (4/3) * (pi) * (1)
Then, the volume of the current sphere is:
V2 = (4/3) * (pi) * ((1 + 2 * (1)) ^ 3)
V2 = (4/3) * (pi) * ((1 + 2) ^ 3)
V2 = (4/3) * (pi) * ((3) ^ 3)
V2 = (4/3) * (pi) * (27)
The relation of volumes is:
V2 / V1 = ((4/3) * (pi) * (27)) / ((4/3) * (pi) * (1))
V2 / V1 = 27/1
Answer:
The ratio of the current volume of the balloon to the original volume of the balloon is:
27: 1
