Paul is gathering data about moss growth in a local forest. He measured an area of 11 square centimeters on one particular tree

and will come back in 6 months to measure the growth of the moss. If the area covered by moss multiplies by one and a half times each month, approximately how much area will the moss cover when Paul returns?

If you so 11 * 1.5 * 1.5 * 1.5 * 1.5 * 1.5 * 1.5 you get approximately 125.2969cm squared

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The area that moss cover when Paul returns is:

              125.296875\ \text{square\ centimeters}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The initial area that is measured by Paul about moss growth in a local forest is:  11 square centimeters.

We know that the increase in the area covered by moss is increasing exponentially.

Since each month it is increasing by a fixed constant 1.5 times as it was the previous month.

Hence, the function which represents the area covered by moss in x months is:

     A(x)=11\times (1.5)^x

We are asked to find the value of function when x=6

i.e.

A(x)=11\times 1.5\times 1.5\times 1.5\times 1.5\times 1.5\times 1.5\\\\\\A(x)=125.296875\ \text{square\ centimeters}

            Hence, the answer is:

            125.296875\ \text{square\ centimeters}

Jenny washed dishes 4 times as many as her brother last month. Her brother washed dishes 8 times. Jenny said she could multiply
Julli [10]

Jenny is incorrect in her calculation.

For every time that Jenny's brother washed dishes, Jenny washed dishes 4 times. This tells that the the times they washed dishes occur in the ratio 4 :1. If Jenny's brother washed dishes 8 times, Jenny has to have washed dishes 4\times 8=32 times. The way Jenny's is doing the calculation implies that his brother washed dishes 3*\times 8 =24 times. He calculation yields a wrong result.
