We can use a rule of three simple, direct proportion to solve this problem.
15 pounds correspond to $1.80, then the question is to find the price of one pound, the called unit rate. We state the rule of three:
15 pound ----> $1.80
1 pound -----> x
x = (1)(1.80)/15
x = 0.12
Therefore, each pound costs $0.12 that is the unit rate in pounds

Answer is 1483.31088

Explanation:

It is asked that $=(\frac{1}{4})(3.14)(5.4^{3} )(12)\\=(3.14)(5.4^{2} )(3)\\\\=(3.14)(157.464)(3)\\=1483.31088\\$

A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function p(x) = 20(1.014)x , where x represents the number of days

Nitella [24]

Answer:

20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits

the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100 is 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function

p(x) = 20(1.014)^x

This model is exponential. Where 20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits with 1.4% increase rate of the rabbits

To find the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100,

find the population p(50) and p(100). Subtract them and divide by 100 - 50 = 50.

p(50) = 20(1.014)50 = 40.08...

p(100) = 20(1.014)100 = 80.32...

(80.32 - 40.08) / (100 - 50) = 40.24/50 = 0.8048. which is approximately 0.8 to the nearest tenth.

The rate of change is 0.8.

Which of the following points are more than 5 units from the point P(−2, −2)? Select all that apply. A A (2, 1) B B (4, −1) C C

netineya [11]

The distance between any 2 points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) in the coordinate plane, is given by the formula:<span>

<span> $|PQ|= \sqrt{ (a-c)^{2} + (b-d)^{2}}$ </span></span>

Using this formula we calculate the distances |PA|, |PB|, |PC|, |PD| and |PE| and compare to 5.

$|PA|= \sqrt{ (-2-2)^{2} + (-2-1)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+9}= \sqrt{25}=5$

$|PB|= \sqrt{ (-2-4)^{2} + (-2+1)^{2}}= \sqrt{36+1}= \sqrt{37} \approx 6$

$|PC|= \sqrt{ (-2-2)^{2} + (-2+3)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+1}= \sqrt{17}\approx4$

$|PD|= \sqrt{ (-2+6)^{2} + (-2+6)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+16}= \sqrt{32}\ \textgreater \ \sqrt{25}=5$

$|PE|= \sqrt{ (-2+5)^{2} + (-2-1)^{2}}= \sqrt{9+9}= \sqrt{16}=4$

Answer: B and D
