Marco starts with a population of 10 bacteria that doubles every day for a number of days, d. He writes the expression 10(2d) to

find the number of bacteria after d days. Isabella starts with a population of 1 bacterium that increases 20% every day for a number of days, d. She writes the expression (1 + 0.2)d to find the number of bacteria after d days. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Marco's and Isabella's expressions mean.

Answer:

Marco- 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent.

Isabella- 1 is the starting population. 1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marco's equation should be 10(2^{d}) since the bacteria double each day. 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent. This will double each day because:

Day 1 is 2^{1}=2

Day 2 is 2^{2}=4

Day 3 is 2^{3}=8

Day 4 is 2^{4}=16

You'll notice the value doubles each day.

Isabella has a different equation because her population increases by a percentage. We use the simple interest formula to calculate the bacteria's daily increase or interest.

1(1+0.2)d

1 is the starting population.

1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.

Sum of interior angles of a convex 14-gon
just olya [345]

Answer: 2160°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a polygon is represented by the formula:

Sum = (n - 2) x 180° where n is the number of sides in the polygon

In this case, the complex polygon has 14 sides (n = 14)

So, (14 - 2) x 180°

= 12 x 180°

= 2160°

Thus, the sum of interior angles of a convex 14-gon is 2160°

How would I solve this Rational Equation? <br><br>Solve for all values of x.
Nesterboy [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to put these in the form f(x) = 0. We can do that by subtracting the right side. Common factors can be cancelled from numerator and denominator, provided they are not zero.

  \dfrac{7}{x+3}+\dfrac{3}{x-3}-\dfrac{x}{x-3}=0\\\\ \dfrac{7(x-3)+(x+3)(3-x)}{(x+3)(x-3)}=0\\\\\dfrac{(x-3)(4-x)}{(x-3)(x+3)}=0\\\\ \dfrac{4-x}{x+3}=0\qquad x\ne3\\\\x=4 \qquad\text{equate the numerator to zero, add $x$}

_____

If you leave the numerator as (x-3)(4-x), then there are two values of x that make it zero. Because x=3 makes the equation "undefined", it cannot be considered to be a solution.
