Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$14
Step-by-step explanation:
$20 minus the $6 she came back with equals $14, which is what she spent.
(20-6=14)
The function f(x) = 4(4)x represents the growth of a fly population every year in a remote swamp.
calculates three times a year, not just once a year.

3 times a year
so x becomes 3x


Take log on both sides


Use log property and move exponent before log

Divide both sides by x
log 4 = 3 log(1+r)
Solve for '1+r'
log 4 = log(1+r)^3
Remove log from both sides
4 = (1+r)^3
take cube root on both sides
1.584740= 1+r
1+r = 1.59

so equation becomes

1+r = 1.59
subtract 1 from both sides
So r= 59 = 59%
So growth factor is 59%
