Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. In order to find the zeros of the function, we must factor it.
Step 2. To factor this, we have to find two numbers that multiply to 4 and add to 4 which is 2 ( 2*2=4 and 2+2=4)
step 3. 0=(x+2)(x+2)
Step 4 make (x+2) equal to zero and solve which gives us -2, so -2 =x.
• Increased by 3
n+3
• Twice the number
2(n+3)
• Three times the number
3n
• Final result
2(n+3)-3n
Answer:
a) 91 1/6 gallons
b) 2502 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given a number of miles and a number of gallons for the car. The ratio of these numbers is ...
(261 mi)/(14.5 gal) = 18 mi/gal
We presume this value is constant for this car. Then the questions can be answered by forming and solving a proportion:
a) 1641 miles/(gallons) = 18 mi/(1 gal)
Multiplying by gallons and dividing by 18 mi/gal, we get
1641/18 gal = (gallons) = 91 1/6 gal
It will take 91 1/6 gallons of gasoline for Mary to drive to her friend's house.
___
b) Same deal, but the miles are unknown.
(miles)/(139 gal) = (18 mi)/(1 gal)
Multiplying by 139 gal gives ...
(18 mi)·139 = (miles) = 2502 mi
139 gallons of gasoline will let Mary drive 2502 miles.
I believe 1 is 3.8, b/c 1.9*2 is 3.8, and the difference between exponents makes 3 zeros, so 2000.
The second one is 40, I confirmed this by doing .0001 to replicate 10 to the negative 4th power
By doing 9.5*.0001*40, I got the 0.038 from 1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>According to the model, the equation is:</u>
Based on the equation, the initial number of insects is 3450
<u>If b = 1.75, daily growth rate is:</u>
<u>If we get P(4) = 55200, find the value of b:</u>
- 55200 = 3450*b⁴
- b⁴ = 55200/3450
- b⁴ = 16
- b⁴ = 2⁴
- b = 2
