Answer:

The answer is 5/8

Step-by-step explanation.

The equation for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1. In this case, it would equal 2-(-3)/6-(-2). When you simplify this you get 5/8.

Solve for the given length:

Lesechka [4]

Let x= width
Then x+3= length
So 2x+2x+6=26
4x+20
x=5
Width is x=5m and length is x+3=8m
Area is (lenght)(width) so (5)(8)= 40m squared

A population of insects grows exponentially, as shown in the table. Suppose the increase in population continues at the same rat

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer-

The insect population at the end of week 11 is 1730.

Solution-

A population of insects grows exponentially.

The general form of exponential function is,

$y=ab^x$

Where,

a, b are constants.

Putting the data given in the table, in the the equation in order to get the values of a, b

At (0, 20)

$\Rightarrow 20=ab^0$

$\Rightarrow a\cdot (1)=20$

$\Rightarrow a=20$

Now the exponential function becomes,

$y=20b^x$

At (1, 30)

$\Rightarrow 30=20b^1$

$\Rightarrow 20b=30$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{30}{20}$

$\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{3}{2}$

Now the equation becomes,

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^x$

For calculating the number of insects at the end of the 11th week, putting x=11, so

$y=20(\frac{3}{2})^{11}$

$=1729.95 \approx 1730$
