Given:
wild turkey ; 12 in the first hour and cumulative number increases by 40% per hour
white-tail deer ; 18 in the first hour and 10 deer each hour after that.

wild turkery: 12 * (1.40)^n-1 ; n is the number of hour
white-tail deer: 18 + 10^n-1 ; n is the number of hour

n     wild turkey     white-tail deer
1          12                 18
2          17                 28
3          24                 38
4          33                 48
5          46                 58
6          65                 68
7          90                 78

It would be hour 7 after sunrise that the cumulative count of the turkeys first exceed the cumulative count of the deer.

Which of these is equal to ⅔ × ¾ × ⅗?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Just multiply all of the numerators (top numbers)  and then multiple all of the denominators (bottom numbers)

2/3x3/4x3/5  would be 18/60 Then take any number that is a factor to both 18 and 60 and divide both numbers by that factor.  I could use 2 or 3 or 6 because both 18 and 60 is divisible by any of these numbers.  I will choose 3.  I will divide the top and bottom of 18/60 by 3 to get 6/20, now I will divide the top and bottom of that number by 2 to get 3/10

Alessandro wrote the quadratic equation –6 = x2 + 4x – 1 in standard form. What is the value of c in his new equation?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To write it in standard form, we set the equation equal to 0.  To do this, we add 6 to each side:

-6+6 = x² + 4x - 1 + 6

0 = x² + 4x + 5

The related function is

y = x² + 4x + 5

The value of c in this function is 5.
