Correct answer is
<u>doubles</u>

Direct variation describes a simple relationship between two variables . We say y varies directly with x

This means that as x increases, y increases and as x decreases, y decreases

Given equation is y = kx,

if x is doubled,

so plug in x = 2x in the given equation so new y1 will become

y1 = k ( 2x)

y1= 2kx

y1 = 2 y

So y becomes doubles

1) A population of genetically modified

TiliK225 [7]

This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.

So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.

There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.

Line l is parallel to line e in the figure below.

agasfer [191]

Answer: The correct option are as follows;

(1) The triangles are similar because corresponding sides are congruent

(2) The triangles are similar because alternate interior angles are congruent

(3) In the similar triangles, Angle 3 and Angle 6 are corresponding angles

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for details.

The line i and line e has been drawn and marked as parallel lines. Also two transversal lines m and n have been drawn to intersect in the region between the parallel lines to form two triangles (as shown in the picture).

From the information given, where line e intersects with line n we have angle 1, and where line e intersects with line m we have angle 3, and then the third angle is angle 2.

Furthermore, where line l intersects line m we have angle 6, and where line l intersects line n is angle 4. Also in this second triangle, the third angle is 5.

Upon close observation we would see that Angle 6 is equal to Angle 3, since the transversal m has cut across both parallel lines l and e. Similarly Angle 4 is equal to Angle 1 since the transversal n has cut across parallel lines l and e. Having that Angles 3 and 1 are congruent to Angles 6 and 4, we can conclude that the value of the third angle in one triangle is equal to the that of the third in the second triangle, that is, Angle 2 equals Angle 5. Also, if the angles are similar and the lines l and e are parallel, then the lines formed in both triangles are equal.

So our conclusions are;

The interior angle are alternate angles (Angles 3 and 6, Angles 1 and 4), and the third interior angles are Opposite (Angles 2 and 5 {Opposite angles are equal})

Will someone help with this ! I was allowed a retry for it and I don’t know how to do it

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

$\frac{dN}{dt}=k(725-N)\\separating the variables and integrating\\\int \frac{dN}{725-N}=\int kdt+c\\-log (725-N)=kt+c\\log (725-N)=-kt-c\\(725-N)=e^{-kt-c} =e^{-kt} *e^{-c} =Ce^{-kt} \\when t=0,N=400\\725-400=Ce^{0} =C\\C=325\\when t=3,N=650\\725-650=325e^{-3k} \\\frac{75}{325}=(e^{-k})^3\\\\e^{-k} =(\frac{3}{13}) ^{\frac{1}{3} } \\when t=5\\725-N=325(\frac{3}{13}) ^{\frac{5}{3} } =325*\frac{3}{13}*(\frac{3}{13} )^{\frac{2}{3}}\\N=725-75*(\frac{3}{13} )^{\frac{2}{3} }=725-28=697$
