This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.
So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.
There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.
No, line graphs are used only to show change over time
I think that the answer is seven but i’m not sure
Answer:
Remember, a number a is a zero of the polynomial p(x) if p(a)=0. And a has multiplicity n if the factor (x-a) appear n times in the factorization of p(x).
1. Since -2 is a zero with multiplicity 1, then (x+2) is a factor of the polynomial.
2. Since 1 is a zero with multiplicity 2, then (x-1) is a factor of the polynomial and appear 2 times.
3. Since 5 is a zero with multiplicity 3, then (x-5) is a factor of the polynomial and appear 3 times.
Then, the polynomial function with the zeros described above is
