ssion 1,000(3h) to find the number of amoeba after h hours. Tyler starts with a population of 1 amoeba that increases 30% in size every hour for a number of hours, h. He writes the expression (1+0.3)h to find the number of amoeba after h hours. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Madison’s and Tyler’s expressions mean.

Answer: The meaning of each term of the  Madison’s and Tyler’s expressions is mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, when Madison starts with a population of 1,000 amoebas that triples in size every hour for a number of hours, h.

That is, after 1 hour total number of amoebas = 3×1000 = 3^1\times 1000

After 2 hour,  total number of amoebas = 3×3000=3^2\times 100

After 3 hour, total number of amoebas = 3×9000= 3^3\times 1000

similarly, after h hours, total number of amoebas,

f(h) = 3^h\times 1000

where, 1000 is the initial population of amoeba 3 is the growth factor of population and f(h) is the population of amoeba after h hours.

Since, when Tyler starts with a population of 1 amoeba that  increases 30% in size every hour for a number of hours.

That is, after 1 hour total number of amoebas = (1+0.3)^1

After 2 hour,  total number of amoebas =  (1+0.3)^2

After 3 hour, total number of amoebas =  (1+0.3)^3

Similarly, after h hours, total number of amoebas,

f(h) =(1+0.3)^h

Where,  1 is the initial population of amoeba, 0.3 is the growth rate and 1.3 is the growth factor.

A regression analysis of 117 homes for sale produced the following model, where price is in thousands of dollars and size in squ
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A) m = 0.062

B) 202.87 thousand dollars

C) Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars. $6000 is called the error term.                                            

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Price = 47.87+0.062(size)

The above equation is regression equation where price is in thousand dollars and size in square feet.

Let p be the prize and s be the size.

p(s) = 47.87 + 0.062s

Comparing it to linear equation, we have,

y= mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

m = 0.062

c = 47.87

A) slope of the line

The slope of line tells the rate of change. Thus, it tells the change in price if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

The price of house increases by 0.062 thousand dollars if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

B) Price of house

We are given s = 2500. Putting this value in the equation.

p(2500) = 47.87 + 0.062(2500) =202.87

Thus, the price of a 2500 square feet house is 202.87 thousand dollars.

C) We are given s = 1100

Putting the value in the equation:

p(1100) = 47.87 + 0.062(1100) =116.07

Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars

Asking price =

116.07 - 6 = 110.07

The buyer is asking for 110.07 thousand dollars.

$6000 is called the error term.

Y-4=0 in standard form
wolverine [178]
Standard form : Ax + By = C

y - 4 = 0
y = 4...this is a horizontal line and a horizontal line has a 0 slope

so in standard form, ur equation is : 0x + y = 4
