Complete question is;
A skull cleaning factory cleans animal skulls and other types of animals using flesh eating Beatles. The factory owner started with only 13 adult beetles.
After 35 days, the beetle population grew to 26 adult beetles. How long did it take before the beetle population was 13,000 beetles?
Answer:
349 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Initial amount of adult beetles; A_o = 13
Amount of adult beetles after 35 days; A_35 = 26
Thus can be solved using the exponential formua;
A_t = A_o × e^(kt)
Where A_t is the amount after time t, t is the time and k is a constant.
Plugging in the relevant values;
26 = 13 × e^(35k)
e^(35k) = 26/13
e^(35k) = 2
35k = In 2
35k = 0.6931
k = 0.6931/35
k = 0.0198
Now,when the beetle population is 12000,we can find the time from;
13000 = 13 × e^(k × 0.0198)
e^(k × 0.0198) = 13000/13
e^(k × 0.0198) = 1000
0.0198k = In 1000
0.0198k = 6.9078
k = 6.9078/0.0198
k ≈ 349 days.
Answer:
5.25 cups of flour
Step-by-step explanation:
4 containers - 21 cups of flour
1 container - 21 cups of flour ÷ 4 = 5.25 cups of flour
Answer:
x + 6 = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
6 more than x means there's an increment in the value of x by addition of 6
x + 6 = 33
This leads to an algebraic linear equation. x is an unknown variable and can be solved for
we subtract 6 from both sides of the equation
x + 6 - 6 = 33 - 6
x = 27
Therefore, we can say 6 more than 27 is 33
Divide 1000 by 8 which would give you 125. So they have 125 cans and they need to collect 8 times as many, meaning 8 times of what they have which is 125. And 125 times 8 is equal to 1000. YOU'RE WELCOME :D
