Answer:
Exponential
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Starter:</em>
According to the title:
"Every day, half a bacteria population dies."
Exponential: y = ab^x ( b > 0 , b ≠ 1)
So the answer is C.
<em>Calculations:</em>
An exponential model is of the form y = a • b^t.
If you start with population of 500 million bacteria
t = 0
so 500 million = a • b^0 = a
Since every day half the population dies then in 1 day population will be 250 million
so a = 500 million, y = 250 million and t = 1
250 million = 500 million • b^1
b = 0.5
Therefore your equation would be
y = 500 million (or whatever the pop) • 0.5^t
Where t = number of days
This could also be written in exponential form ( e = 2.73)
Answer: The correct option is
(D) {3, 10, 17, 24, …}.
Reasoning:
We are given to select the sequence that represents the following function with a domain of natural numbers :
The set of natural numbers is {1, 2, 3, 4, . . .}
to find the sequence, we need to substitute x = 1, 2, 3, 4, . . . in equation (i).
From equation (i), we get
Therefore, the sequence that represents the given function is {3, 10, 17, 24, …}.
Thus, option (D) is CORRECT.
F(x)=7x-1/2
Add the half to the other side afeterreplacing f(x) with a zero
1/2=7x divide by 7
7/2=x, when y=0
V= 1/3 Area of base times Height
so, 483 (3)^1/2 =1/3 A (16 cm)
1/3(1/2b^2)16cm = 483(3)^1/2
solve for b to get the sides and it is = 17.7 or 18 approximate.
The answer is 7.8
Hope this helps!
