Students observing a caterpillar crawl on a tree noticed that the caterpillar crawled upwards 38 of an inch every minute. The ca

terpillar was already 4.5 feet off the ground when the students began observing.
Which function represents the total number of inches the caterpillar crawls after x minutes?

f(x) = 4.5x + 3/8

f(x) = 54x + 3/8

f(x( = 3/8x + 54

f(x) = 3/8x + 4.5

Answer: Third Option

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x + 54

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to propose an equation that models the distance traveled by the caterpillar as a function of time, we have a constant initial quantity of 4.5 feet and then we know that every minute the caterpillar advances 3/8 of an inch

Then the distance that the caterpillar to advanced after x minutes is:

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x

Then we know that initially the caterpillar was at a distance of 4.5 feet or 54 inch

Then the equation for the distance in inch is:

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x + 54

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

\sqrt [3] {64 * a ^ 6 * b ^ 7 * c ^ 9}

We rewrite:

64 = 4 ^ 3\\a ^ 6 = (a ^ 2) ^ 3\\b ^ 6 * b = ((b ^ 2) ^ 3 * b)\\c ^ 9 = (c ^ 3) ^ 3

So:

\sqrt [3] {4 ^ 3 * (a ^ 2) ^ 3 * (b ^ 2) ^ 3 * b * (c ^ 3) ^ 3} =\\\sqrt [3] {4 * a ^ 2 * b ^ 2 * c ^ 3) ^ 3 * b} =

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have:

\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}

So:

4a ^ 2b ^ 2 c ^ 3 \sqrt [3] {b}

Answer:

The population of Bear in 2050 is 4750000

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The exponential growth equation for bear is as follows -

dN/dT = rmax * N

Where dN/dT = change in population

rmax is the maximum rate of change

N = Base population

B) Here the per capita rate of increase (r) will always be a positive value irrespective of the and hence we will assume this population to be growing exponentially.

C) dN/dT = rmax * N

D) dN / 5 = 2.5 * 380,000

dN = 5*2.5 * 380000

= 4750000

((x-h)^2)+((y-k)^2)​
Schach [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

= (x^2 + h^2 - 2xh) + (y^2 + k^2 - 2yk)     As, (a-b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab

= x^2 + h^2 - 2xh + y^2 + k^2 - 2yk

Solve for x . Leave your answer in the simplest form
Alisiya [41]

Hello!

Here we are given a composite shape, meaning that we can divide this shape up into ways that we are given formulas to solve for legs and such.

I can see here that this can be divided into a triangle and a rectangle using a horizontal line.

The leg lengths of this triangle would be 9, because it is congruent to the bottom side of the rectangle, and 7, because it is the left side minus the right side.

This would also make a right triangle, meaning we could solve for the hypotenuse utilizing the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

6^2+7^2=c^2

36+49=c^2

c^2=85

c=\sqrt{85}

Which is in simplest radical form.

Hope this helps!
