Answer:
0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth equation is expressed as;
S(t) = S0e^kt
S(t) is the number of stores after t years
S0 is the initial number of stores
If a chain of retail computer stores opened 2 stores in its first year of operation then at t = 1, S(t) = 2. Substitute into the equation;
2 = S0e^k(1)
2 = S0e^k .... 1
Also if after 8 years of operation, the chain consisted of 206 stores, this means at t = 8, S(t) = 206. Substitute into the equation;
206 = S0e^k(1)
206 = S0e^8k .... 2
Next is to calculate the value of k
Divide equation 2 by 1;
Hence the value of k to the nearest hundredth is 0.66
The amount of gas consumed by first and second car were 20 gallons and 15 gallons respectively.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Suppose, gallons of gas were consumed by the first car.
As the total gas consumption in one week is 35 gallons, so the amount of gas consumed by second car will be: gallons.
The first car has a fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of 15 miles per gallon of gas.
So, the <u>distance traveled by the first car</u> in gallons of gas
miles and the <u>distance traveled by the second car</u> in
gallons of gas
miles.
Given that, the two cars went a <u>combined total of 925 miles</u>. So, the equation will be.....
So, the amount of gas consumed by the first car is 20 gallons and the amount of gas consumed by the second car is: (35 - 20) = 15 gallons.
