<h3>Answer:</h3>

$\huge{\boxed{72}}$

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

First, find the total number of apples. $6*1200=7200$

Now, multiply this by the probability of picking a rotten apple, which is $\frac{1}{100}$ . This is also the same as dividing by $100$ , or moving the decimal point two places to the left. $7200*\frac{1}{100}=72$

This means that based on the probability given, $72$ rotten apples will be picked.

How to make an improper fraction into a proper fraction?

e-lub [12.9K]

Divide the numerator by the denominator and any remaining values go back above the denominator.

Example:

17 / 4 is an improper fraction. To turn it into a proper fraction we do 17 divided by 4.

17 / 4 is 4 with a remainder of 4. So we put the 4 on the outside and the 1 back above the denominator, which is 4.

It ends up looking like this: $\frac{17}{4} = 4 \frac{1}{4}$

Calculating Distance around a Polygon

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

12.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Each side of the pentagonal garden has a length of 2.5 cm.

A pentagon has 5 sides.

Since the garden has congruent sides, all its lengths are equal.

Therefore:

Distance Walked by Tanya

= 5 X 2.5

=12.5cm

Tanya has walked 12.5cm in total.

Function f is an exponential function. It predicts the value of a famous painting, in thousands of dollars, as a function of the

nalin [4]

Answer:

$y=8 \cdot (\frac{5}{4})^x$

$f(x)=8 \cdot (\frac{5}{4})^x$

or

$f(x)=8 \cdot (1.25)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to see if the exponential curve is of the form:

$y=a \cdot b^x$ , ( $b\neq 0$ ).

If you are given the $y-$ intercept, then $a$ is easy to find.

It is just the $y-$ coordinate of the $y-$ intercept is your value for $a$ .

(Why? The $y-$ intercept happens when $x=0$ . Replacing $x$ with 0 gives $y=a \cdot b^0=a \cdot 1=a$ . This says when $x=0 \text{ that} y=a$ .)

So $a=8$ .

So our function so far looks like this:

$y=8 \cdot b^x$

Now to find $b$ we need another point. We have two more points. So we will find $b$ using one of them and verify for our resulting equation works for the other.

Let's do this.

We are given $(1,10)$ is a point on our curve.

So when $x=1$ , $y=10$ .

$10=8 \cdot b^1$

$10=8 \cdot b$

Divide both sides by 8:

$\frac{10}{8}=b$

Reduce the fraction:

$\frac{5}{4}=b$

So the equation if it works out for the other point given is:

$y=8 \cdot (\frac{5}{4})^x$

Let's try it. So the last point given that we need to satisfy is $(2,12.5)$ .

This says when $x=2$ , $y=12.5$ .

Let's replace $x$ with 2 and see what we get for $y$ :

$y=8 \cdot (\frac{5}{4})^2$

$y=8 \cdot \frac{25}{16}$

$y=\frac{8}{16} \cdot 25$

$y=\frac{1}{2} \cdot 25}$

$y=\frac{25}{2}$

$y=12.5$

So we are good. We have found an equation satisfying all 3 points given.

The equation is $y=8 \cdot (\frac{5}{4})^x$ .
