Answer:

The number of pounds of coffee in stock decreased by 9% each hour since the trend began.

There were 40 pounds of coffee in stock when the trend began.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x)=0.4(.91)^x

      = a b^x

where a is the initial value and b = 1-rate of decrease

We know that the number of pounds of coffee will decrease as time goes on.

.4 is the initial value

It is in the hundreds of pound

.4 * 100 = 40 pounds

x is the number of hours

.91 = 1- rate of decrease

Subtract 1 from each side

.91-1 =-rate of decrease

-.09 = -rate of decrease

rate of decrease = .09

rate of decrease = 9 %

That means we keep 91 % of the coffee and sell 9% of the coffee


Lets check the statements:

There were 400 pounds of coffee in stock when the trend began.

False  there were 40 pounds when we started


The number of pounds of coffee in stock decreased by 9% each hour since the trend began.

Answer:

we know that

The total area is equal to

A=10(h)+2\pi r(h)+10(h)

we have

h=9\ ft

r=5.5\ ft

\pi=3.14

substitute

A=10(9)+2(3.14)(5.5)(9)+10(9)

A=490.9\ ft^{2}

A bacteria culture contains 100 cells and grows at a rate proportional to its size. After one hour the population has increased
xenn [34]
We know it begins at 100. If we use a*b^t, then 100 is our a. 100*b^t. We can now divide 480 by 100. This is 4.8. 4.8 is b. f(t) = 100(4.8)^t
