Answer:

Given the initial population of termites = 60

After 7 days the population of termites = 225

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the initial termites and the population of termites after 7 days. Now we are required to find the exponential growth model that will help to predict the future population of termites.  

We have, Y = Ca^x

When the value of x is zero then population (Y) is 60 termites.

Y = Ca^x

60 = Ca^x

Now, Y = 60a^x

At x = 7 days

Y  = 225

225 = 60 a^7

a^7 = 225/60

a = 1.2078

Thus, final population will be, Y = 60(1.2078)^x

KengaRu [80]

Answer: Choice B

Simulated probability = 0.533 (approximate)

Simulated probability is larger than theoretical probability

======================================

Explanation:

Getting heads is written shorthand as a "0".

There are 8 copies of "0" in the list out of 15, so 8/15 = 0.533 is the approximate simulated probability.

Compare this to the theoretical probability 1/2 = 0.500 (assuming this is a fair coin)

The simulated probability (0.533) is larger than its theoretical counterpart (0.500)

Bob can complete his Math homework in
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

3.75 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Bob completes his homework in 2.5 hours.

In 1 hour, he completes 1/2.5 of his homework.

Joe completes his homework in x hours.

In 1 hour, he completes 1/x of his homework.

Together, they complete the homework in 1.5 hours.

In 1 hour, they do 1/1.5 of the homework.

1/2.5 + 1/x = 1/1.5

Convert the decimal numbers in the numerators into fractions.

1/(5/2) + 1/x = 1/(3/2)

2/5 + 1/x = 2/3

Multiply both sides by the LCD, 15x.

6x + 15 = 10x

-4x = -15

x = 3.75

Answer: 3.75 hours

Martin sorted the bolts in his toolbox by size. They measured 3/8 inch, 1/2 inch,5/8 inch, 7/8 inch, and 1 1/4 inches . What is
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Length between the longest bolt and the shortest bolt is:

2.375 inch

If we laid one of each size bolt end to end , then the length of  row of bolts is:

5.125 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

Martin sorted the bolts in his toolbox by size.

They measured 3/8 inch, 1/2 inch,5/8 inch, 7/8 inch, and 1 1/4 inches

longest bolt=  11/4 inches    shortest bolt=3/8 inch

Difference between longest and shortest bolt=  \dfrac{11}{4} - \dfrac{3}{8}\\ \\=\dfrac{22-3}{8}\\ \\=\dfrac{19}{8}\\ \\= 2.375

Now, if we lay one of each size bolt end to end then, length of row will be:

  \dfrac{3}{8}+\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{5}{8}+\dfrac{7}{8}+\dfrac{11}{4}

=41/8

= 5.125 inches
