Answer:

1.932 days (or approximatelly 1 day, 22 hours and 22 minutes)

Step-by-step explanation:

The inicial concentration is 60,000, and this concentration triples every 4 days, so we can write the equation:

P = Po * r^t

where P is the final concentration after t periods of 4 days, Po is the inicial concentration and r is the ratio that the concentration increases (r = 3)

Then, we have that:

102000 = 60000 * 3^t

3^t = 102/60 = 1.7

log(3^t) = log(1.7)

t*log(3) = log(1.7)

t = log(1.7)/log(3) = 0.483

so the number of days that will take is 4*0.483 = 1.932 days (or approximatelly 1 day, 22 hours and 22 minutes)

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Axis of symmetry.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an incomplete statement. We are supposed to complete the given statement.

Given statement: The vertical line passing through the vertex of a parabola is called the ________.

We know that a parabola is symmetric about axis of symmetry . The line passing through the vertex of parabola divides the parabola into two mirror images.

Therefore, the vertical line passing through the vertex of a parabola is called the the <u>axis of symmetry.</u>

Which statement explains the relationship between corresponding
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Each term in pattern Y is 3 times the corresponding term in pattern X.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

X - 0, 5, 10, 15, 20

Y - 0, 15, 30, 45, 60

We can use deduce from physical observation of the data that each term in pattern Y is 3 times the corresponding term in pattern X.

However, to establish our relationship, we can plot the linear relationship and generate the equation of the line.

Thus gives us :

Y = 3X + 0

Which means for every pattern in Y, it is 3 times the corresponding pattern in X

Solve the absolute value equation<br><br> (picture listed below)
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

17) x = 0, -6

18) x = 2, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the absolute value, then split into 2 equations and solve both

example: |x + 1| = 2

x + 1 = 2, x + 1 = -2

x = 1, -3

------------------------------------

17) |x + 3| - 1 = 2

isolate the absolute value:

|x + 3| = 3

x + 3 = 3, x + 3 = -3

x = 0, -6

-----------------------------------------

18) 3|x + 1| = 9

isolate absolute value:

|x + 1| = 3

x + 1 = 3, x + 1 = -3

x = 2, -4
