<h2>Answer:</h2>

The function that is continuous is:

  •    Outdoor temperature as a function of time.
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

1)

Number of children enrolled in a particular school as a function of time.

This function is a discrete function.

Because the number of children are present as a whole number and hence will be discrete.

2)

Price of a stock as function of time.

As we know that the price of stock may vary differently sometimes it may be high and at the other time it may be low and hence the price of stocks are in dollars or cents.

    Hence, it is not continuous.

3)

Outdoor temperature as a function of time.

As we know that the temperature increase or decrease continuously since it may take any of the value.

        Hence, this function is continuous.

4)

Cost of U.S. postage as a function of the weight of the letter.

As we know that the cost of the postage is assigned in the intervals of the weight .

for example--

for any weight from 0-2 kg the cost of postage is $ 2

for any weight from 2-4 kg the cost of postage is: $ 4

and so on.

Hence, we see that the graph will not be continuous.

Answer:

a. \  \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}

b. \  \dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates with rules of indices

(a) The give expression is presented as follows;

\dfrac{m^3 \times \left (n^{-2} \right )^4 \times (5 \cdot m)^4}{\left (3 \cdot m^2 \cdot n \right )^3}

By expanding the expression, we get;

\dfrac{m^3 \times n^{-8} \times 5^4 \times m^4}{\left 3^3 \times m^6 \times n^3}

Collecting like terms gives;

\dfrac{m^{(3 + 4 - 6)}  \times 5^4}{ 3^3 \times n^{3 + 8}} = \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}

\dfrac{m^3 \times \left (n^{-2} \right )^4 \times (5 \cdot m)^4}{\left (3 \cdot m^2 \cdot n \right )^3}= \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}

(b) The given expression is presented as follows;

x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \div (x \cdot y^n)^4

Therefore, we get;

x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \times  x^{-4} \times y^{-4 \cdot n}

Collecting like terms gives;

x^{3 \cdot m + 2 - 4} \times \left (y^{3 \cdot n - 3 -4 \cdot n}} \right ) = x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \times \left (y^{ - 3 -n}} \right ) = x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \div \left (y^{ 3 + n}} \right )

x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \div \left (y^{ 3 + n}} \right ) = \dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}

x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \times  x^{-4} \times y^{-4 \cdot n} =\dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}

Can people help? When a grizzly bear hibernates, its heart rate drops to
avanturin [10]

Like you said: 10 beats per minute, which is 20% percent of its normal value.

So: 10 per minute is 20% of the normal rate. You will divide each side by 0.2, which will result in 50 per min
