Suppose a population of 250 crickets doubles in size every 3 months. How many crickets will there be after 2 years?

2 answers:

8 0

The total number of crikets after 2 years will be 2,000.
Calculation:
250 crickets = 3 months
2 years = 24 months
24 months / 3 months = 8 months
8 months x 250 crickets = 2,000 crickets after 2 years

Identify the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = -1/3 x + 2 and passes through (2, 1)

Airida [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line is the opposite reciprocal of the slope of the other line, meaning if the slope of the other line is $-\frac{1}{3}$ , then the slope of the line perpendicular is $3$ .

Knowing this, we can start to construct the equation for the line:

$y = mx + b$

$y = 3x + b$

To solve for $b$ , we plug in the coordinates of the point that we know the line runs through, $(2, 1)$ :

$y = 3x + b$

$1 = 3(2) + b$

$1 = 6 + b$

$b = -5$

Therefore, the slope of the line that is perpendicular ot the line provided in the equation is the following:

$y = 3x - 5$

T = 6 years

Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 7.5%/100 = 0.075 per year,
then, solving our equation

t = (1/0.075)((725/500) - 1) = 6
t = 6 years

The time required to get
a total amount, principal plus interest, of $ 725.00
from simple interest on a principal of $ 500.00
at an interest rate of 7.5% per year
is 6 years.
