Answer:

≈419.4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you will need to set up an exponential graph as shown:

y= 40 ·(1.6)^{x}

The 40 represents the initial height of the tree, while (1.6) represents the annual growth rate. 'x' represents the amount of years elapsed.

We can simply solve this by substituting 5 for x:

y= 40· (1.6)^{5}

y ≈ 419.4 cm.

Hook wants to set aside $2000 this year for a vacation. She plans on saving $48 dollars each week. There are 52 weeks in a year.
Doss [256]
I think it is reasonable. She will have extra cash (almost $500) but that isn't a bad thing when you are going on a vacation. 

If you need to know how to do it, what I did was take the $48 and the 52 weeks and multiply them together to get $2,496.... But if you think in your own opinion it's not reasonable than say she could trim down her savings and only try to earn about 40 dollars each week; you get to the closer amount of $2,000 with $2,080...

I hope this helps. Choose for yourself though! <3 Good luck! (:

In order to test whether the average waiting time this year differs from last year, a sample of 25 data were collected this year
netineya [11]

Answer:

(B) 0.74 + or - 2.797 × 0.22/√25

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval = mean + or - t × sd/√n

mean = 0.74 hours

sd = 0.22 hours

n = 25

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24

Confidence level = 99%

t-value corresponding to 24 degrees of freedom and 99% confidence level is 2.797

Confidence Interval = 0.74 + or - 2.797 × 0.22/√25

5. Aly ordered a pie that had a diameter of 8 in. What is the approximate area of the pie? (Use 3.14 for t)
klasskru [66]
50.24 square inches. If the diameter is 8in, then the radius must be half the diameter, or 4. You can just plug 4 into the formula for the area of a circle [A=pi*radius^2]. When you multiply 3.14 by 4^2, you get 50.24 square inches.
