A dog owner observes that from birth to age 14 weeks, the puppy’s weight can be modelled by the equation w=365×(1.23)t , for (0≤

t≤14),
(1) Write down the scale factor, and use this to find the percentage increase in the weight each week.
(2) Use the law of logs to find the age at which the puppy will weigh 4000 grams.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Scale factor is a constant value that multiplies another value. For a puppy's weight, scale factor is 1.23.

The percentage growth is

1.23 = 1 + 0.23

Percentage is 0.23 or 23%.

(2) Equation for increase is

w=365(1.23)^{t}

When w = 4000g:

4000=365(1.23)^{t}

(1.23)^{t}=\frac{4000}{365}

1.23^{t}=10.96

Using the log law:

log_{b} (M^{k}) = klog_{b}(M)

log(1.23^{t})=log(10.96)

t.log(1.23) = log(10.96)

0.08990t = log(10.96)

t=\frac{log10.96}{0.08990}

t = 11.56

The puppy will weigh 4000 grams in 11 and half weeks or between 11 and 12 weeks.

4vir4ik [10]

Given :

A holiday meal cost 12.50 a person plus a delivery fee of $30 at we cater.

The same meal cost $15 a person with no fee at Good Eats.

To Find :

When does we cater become the better deal.

Solution :

Let , x is number of order .

Cost at cater , C = 12.5x + 30 .

Cost at Good Eats , G = 15x .

We need to find :

G > C

15x>12.5x + 30\\\\2.5x>30\\\\x>12

Therefore, after 12th order cater will be more value for money.

Hence, this is the required solution.
