Which polynomial correctly combines the like terms and puts the given polynomial in standard form?
Minchanka [31]

Answer: -5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-7xy^5+x^2y^4+8x^6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-xy^5-2x^2y^4+8x^6+3x^2y^4-6xy^5

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2+(-xy^5-6xy^5)+(-2x^2y^4+3x^2y^4)+8x^6

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2+(-7xy^5)+(x^2y^4)+8x^6

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-7xy^5+x^2y^4+8x^6

The population of a colony of mosquitoes obeys the law of uninhibited growth. If there are 1000 mosquitoes initially and there a
STatiana [176]

Answer:

24761 mosquitoes

5.4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation that shows the population of the mosquitoes after x days,

A=P(1+r)^x

Where,

P = Initial population,

r = rate of increasing per day,

Here, A = 1000, when x = 0,

1000=P(1+r)^0\implies P = 1000

A = 1900 when x = 1,

1900 = P(1+r)^1\implies 1900 = 1000(1+r)\implies 1.9 = 1 + r\implies r = 0.9

Thus, the required function that represents the population after x days,

A=1900(1+0.9)^x=1900(1.9)^x

If x = 4,

The number of mosquito after 4 days,

A=1900(1.9)^4 = 24760.99\approx 24761

If A = 60,000,

60000 = 1900(1.9)^x

\frac{600}{19}=1.9^x

Taking log both sides,

\log(\frac{600}{19})=x\log 1.9

\implies x = \frac{\log(\frac{600}{19})}{\log 1.9}=5.378\approx 5.4

Thus, there will 60,000 mosquitoes after 5 days.

Find the area of the following shape. you must show all work to receive credit.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

<h2>A = 57</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pick's theorem

Let P be a polygon in the plane whose vertices have integer coordinates. Then the area of P can be determined just by counting the lattice points on the interior and boundary of the polygon!

In fact, the area is given by

A=i+\dfrac{b}{2}-1

where <em>i</em> is the number interior lattice points, and<em> b</em> is the number of boundary lattice points.

Look at the picture.

i=50,\ b=16

Substitute:

A=50+\dfrac{16}{2}-1=50+8-1=57
