Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2 = x + 8

Subtract x from each side

3x-x - 2 = x-x + 8

2x -2 = 8

Add 2 to each side

2x-2+2 = 8+2

2x = 10

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =10/2

x = 5

Answer: x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2 = x + 8- from this, move -2 across the '=', which makes it now a positive 2. It will now look like 3x = x + 10. Now you should move the x across, which will make it negative, so it will now look like 2x = 10. Now all you have to do is divide 10 by 2, and you will get x, which equals 5

In an insect colony there are 270 insects after 9 days. If there were initially 80 insects how long will it take the population
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects is 17 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth function of the insects is exponential.

The exponential growth function is:

y=a(1+r)^{t}

Here,

<em>y</em> = final value

<em>a</em> = initial value

<em>r</em> = growth rate

<em>t</em> = time taken

It is provided that there were 270 insects after 9 days and initially there were 80 insects.

Compute the value of <em>r</em> as follows:

y=a(1+r)^{t}\\\\270=80(1+r)^{9}\\\\3.375=(1+r)^{9}\\\\\ln(3.375)=9\cdot \ln(1+r)\\\\0.135155=\ln(1+r)\\\\1+r=1.14471\\\\r=0.145

Now, compute the time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects as follows:

800=80(1+0.145)^{t}\\\\10=(1.145)^{t}\\\\\ln(10)=t\cdot \ln(1.145)\\\\t=17.00522\\\\t\approx 17

Thus, the time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects is 17 days.
