Answer:
E.) 5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The shapes are congruent and are the same size, side <u>TU </u> is the same as <u>NP</u>. If <u>TU </u>is 5, then <u>NP </u>is 5.
Log(2)/log(1.064) ≈ 11.17 . . . . hours
_____
The population can be given by
p(n) = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . where n is the number of hours
You want to find n whe p(n) = 2*p₀.
2p₀ = p₀×1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . substitute the given information
2 = 1.064ⁿ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by p₀
log(2) = n×log(1.064) . . . . . . . . take logs to make it a linear equation
log(2)/log(1.064) = n . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of n
The average length of a ladybug can range from 0.08 to 0.4 inches.
So two lengths within the given span are 0.1 inch and 0.3 inches.
I’m pretty sure it’s 1.99
