29, 2,684,354.56

30, 5,368,709.12

Option 2 grants you more than 5 times as much as Option A and is therefore obviously better.

b.) A diagram would show first a slow rise, than a steeper and steeper rise, then would almost growvertically. exponential growth

The most elegant form to describe the given numbers would simply be

$=1*2^x

You start with one, eich doubles after a day (x=1). x is the number of days and how often you multiply by 2

c.) Wasn't sure without calculating, but I guessed Opt.2, because it seemed that one should be tricked into choosing Opt.1

Have a nice day

Brainliest would be appreciated

Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis. y = 64x−8x^2,
Mandarinka [93]
We need to get the limits first. When y = 0
0 = 64x - 8x^2
x = 0 and x = 8
The volume is
V = ∫ y dx from 0 to 8
V = ∫ (64x - 8x^2) dx from 0 to 8
V = 32x^2 - 8x^3/3 from 0 to 8
V = 682.67<span />

D<0 No real roots

D=0 One real root

D>0 Two distinct real root.

Zane calculated the missing side length of one of these triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem. Which triangle is it?
topjm [15]
The pythagorean theorem states that for any RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLE, the relationship between the side lengths are A²+B²=C², where C is the hypotenuse :P

Which means that it can only be applied on right angled triangles~
So your answer would be B, a right-angled triangle.
