Answer:

(B) 477=6(1+0.20)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use formula

P(t)=P_0(1+r)^t

where

Po is the initial population

r is the growth rate

t is the time in months

We are given

initial population of insects

so, Po=6

The scientists find that the insect population, x, is growing exponentially 20% per month

so, r=0.20

now, we can plug these values

P(t)=6(1+0.20)^t

there to be a population of 477 insects

so, P(t)=477

now, we plug it

and we get

477=6(1+0.20)^t

Tcecarenko [31]
Let s equal the number of shirts she can buy

140 > $28.50 + $20.75s
111.50 > 20.75s
5.37 > s

so we round down.  she can buy 5 shirts, plus the one dress and she would spend less than $140

Archy [21]

Answer:

8 pictures

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Window = 5\frac{3}{4}ft

Wall = 9.75ft

Pictures = 6\ inches

Required

Determine the number of pictures

First, we need to calculate the length of the available space

This is calculated by subtracting the width of the window from the width of the wall.

Space = Wall - Window

Space = 9.75 - 5\frac{3}{4}

Convert fraction to decimal

Space = 9.75 - 5.75

Space = 4ft

Since, the pictures are placed side by side.

This means that, there's no empty space between them.

Number of pictures is:

Number = \frac{Space}{Pictures}

Number = \frac{4\ ft}{6\ in}

Convert feet to inches

Number = \frac{4 * 12\ in}{6\ in}

Number = \frac{48\ in}{6\ in}

Number = \frac{48}{6}

Number = 8

<em>Hence, 8 pictures can fit the wall</em>
