Answer:

time (number of years)

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, when something "is a function of time", the independent variable is "time".

Here, we're talking about pigs and their number. If we were concerned with predicting how long they had been there based on their population, then their number might be the independent variable. Or, if we were concerned about the destruction they cause, the same would be true. Since we're saying the number of pigs changes with time, time is the independent variable.

How would you simplify (log 27/logx) x (log x^2/log3)? I don’t think I did this correctly.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

logx 27  * log3 x^2

The first step is to convert to base 10

(log 27/logx) * (log x^2/log3)

27 = 3^3 so we can rewrite this

(log 3^3/logx) * (log x^2/log3)

log a^b  = b log a

(3 log 3/logx) * (2log x/log3)

We can cancel the log x in the numerator and denominator and the log 3 in the numerator and denominator

3 * 2

How many terms are in this equation <br> 8y-6y^2/7^3
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

You count terms that are seperated by - and + signs. Any type of fraction is considered one term.

So you count 8y as one term and the rest is a whole fraction so you also count that as one term.

You add all the terms together and you have 2 terms in this equation.

Hope this helped :)

Heather has her own bakery. She makes 4 pans of muffins each day. If her bakery is open 7 days a week, how many pans of muffins
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

28 pans of muffins per week

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we know that:

1 day = 4 pans of muffins

7 days = x pans of muffins

Cross Multiply

1 day × x pans of muffins = 7 days × 4 pans of muffins

x = 28 pans of muffins

Since, 7 days = 1 week

Heather makes 28 pans of muffins per week
