Let
x-----------> <span>uniform width surrounding the picture
we know that
(10+2x)*(12+2x)=224-----> 120+20x+24x+4x</span>²=224
4x²+44x+120-224=0
4x²+44x-104=0
using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=2 in
the answer is2 inches
Your answer will be letter c
Answer:
10.14 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The following equation describes the percentage of all eligible voters that are registered to vote as a function of time:
V=100-30e^{-0.04t}
The time 't' for which V(t) = 80 is the amount of years required for the percentage of registered voters to reach 80%:
80=100-30e^{-0.04t}\\\frac{20}{30}= e^{-0.04t}\\ln(\frac{2}{3})=-0.04t*ln(e)\\ t=10.14\ years
It will take 10.14 years until 80% of all eligible voters in your county are registered to vote
For the answer to the questions above,
A) Parrots are following a Geometric Progression of 15% increase.
20(1.15), 20(1.15)², 20(1.15)³,
Function = 20(1.15)^n Where n is at the end of year, n =1, 2, 3, ..
Snakes are increasing by 4.
28, 32, 36,....
Function = 24 + 4n n = number of end year, n =1, 2, 3,...
<span>B) After 10 years: </span>
Parrot = 20(1.15)¹⁰ = 80.91115471
Snakes = 24 + 4(10) = 64
<span>C) After what time they are the same: </span>
We use trial and error:
Test: n 20(1.15^n) (24 + 4n)
1 23 28
2 26.45 32
<span> 3 30.41 36 </span>
4 34.98 40
5 40.23 44
6 46.26 48
7 53.20 52
8 61.18 56
9 70.36 60
After year 7, the Parrots increases far more.
<span>At year 7 they are roughly the same.</span>
