Answer:

83.125 pounds of potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide 1,312 by 2

1,312/2 = 665

This means that in 1 year 8 people ate 665 pounds of potatoes.

2. Divide 665 by 8

665/8 = 83.125

This means that in 1 year 1 person ate 83.125 pounds of potatoes.

Answer: a) 8.779 years

b) 8.664 years

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=P\bigg(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\bigg)^{nt}$

A: accumulated amount (balance)
P: principal amount (original/initial investment)
r: interest rate (convert to a decimal)
n: number of times compounded per year
t: number of years

Given: A = 1800, P = 900, r = 8% = 0.08, n = 3, t = unknown

$1800=900\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.08}{3}\bigg)^{3t}\\\\\\2=\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.08}{3}\bigg)^{3t}\\\\\\ln\ 2=ln \bigg(1+\dfrac{0.08}{3}\bigg)^{3t}\\\\\\ln\ 2=3t\ ln\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.08}{3}\bigg)\\\\\\\dfrac{ln\ 2}{3\ ln\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.08}{3}\bigg)}=t\\\\\\\large\boxed{8.779=t}$

$A=Pe^{rt}$

$1800=900e^{0.08t}\\\\\\2=e^{0.08t}\\\\\\ln\ 2=0.08t\\\\\\\dfrac{ln\ 2}{0.08}=t\\\\\\\large\boxed{8.664=t}$

PLS HELP ME NOW ITS PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

a =2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2+2^2 = 3^2

a^2 +4 = 9

a^2 = 9-4

a^2 = 5

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(5)

a = sqrt(5)

a=2.236067977

To the nearest tenth

a =2.2
