Jake is observing the population growth of insects. He started with 24 insects and the population triples every day.

Everyday the number is tripled by 3 and x represents the number of days, which we don’t know, so it would be 3x.
He started with 24.

So the equation is:

24+(3x)

Answer:

$\displaystyle 24 + 3x = y$

Step-by-step explanation:

This was simple, considering that "triple" means "three times as many". That leaves an initial value of 24. You set all of this equal to y.

Please Help! Algebra 2!

Answer:

The interest rate of the account is $3\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=14\ years\\ P=\$1,863\\ A=\$2,830.97\\n=4$

substitute in the formula above and solve for r

$\$2,830.97=\$1,863(1+\frac{r}{4})^{4*14}$

$(2,830.97/1,863)=(1+\frac{r}{4})^{56}$

$(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}=(1+\frac{r}{4})$

$[(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}-1]=\frac{r}{4}$

$r=4*[(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}-1]\\ \\r= 0.03$

Convert to percent

$r= 0.03*100=3\%$

A climber on Mt Everest is 6000 meters from the start of his trail and at elevation 8000 meters above sea level. At x meters fro

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

h'(x) = 0.6 and Δx = 1 and 2

h(6001) = h(6000) + h'(6000)(1) = 8000 +0.6 = 8,000.6

h(6002) = h(6000) + h'(6000)(2) = 8000 + 0.6 (2) =8000 +1.2 = 8001.2

Explanation below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given we have that when the climber is 6000 meters from the start, his elevation is 8000 meters above sea level.

We know that the function for elevation is given by h(x) where x is the number of meters from the start.

Therefore, h(6000) = 8000.

We also know that the derivative of a function tells us the reason of change at some point (or how fast a function is changing near that point). For this problem we have that h'(x) = 0.6. (meaning that the elevation increases in 0.6 meters for every meter they hike further nearby the 6000 meters)

We need to use the derivative at a point to estimate values of the function at nearby points

We're going to use h'(x)= 0.6. Δx= 1

h(6001) = h(6000) + h'(6000)(1) = 8000 +0.6 = 8,000.6

Therefore h (6001) = 8,000.6

Now for h'(x)= 0.6. Δx= 1

h(6002) = h(6000) + h'(6000)(2) = 8000 + 0.6 (2) =8000 +1.2 = 8001.2

Therefore h(6002) = 8001.2

pls follow me and mark brainliest ...thank u

Step-by-step explanation:

length of side x will be

Tan tita = opp/adjacent

tan65 = x/3

tan 65 is 2.14

so...you are left with 2.14=x/3

by cross multiplying

x= 2.14 × 3

= 6.43

If you were to graph the linear equation 4x+6y=−12 on the semester test, you would need to determine the x- and y-intercepts, pl

goblinko [34]

The x intercept is -3, and the y intercept is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is 4x+6y= -12

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form of y=mx +c where c is the y intercept

y=mx+c

6y=-4x-12

y= -4/6 x -12/6

y=-2/3x -2

c= -2

To get x intercept replace value of y in the equation with 0;

y= -2/3 x -2

0= -2/3 x -2

2= -2/3 x

2*3=-2x

6=-2x

6/-2 =x

-3 =x

x intercept is -3
