Answer:
The general form of a natural logarithmic function is <em>f(x)=a In(x-h) +k.</em> Since the initial average length of the lizards was 20 centimeters, one possible point (h+1,k) through which the function passes is (0,20).
In this case, h= -1 since h +1 = 0 and k = 20.
It follows that x - h = (-1) = x + 1.
So, the function takes the form <em>f(x) = a In(x + 1) +20. </em>
The average length of the lizards after 2 years is 22.197. So f(2) =22.197. We substitute this value into the function
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>f(2) = a In(2 +1) +20 </em>
<em>22.197 = a In(3) + 20 </em>
<em></em>
<em>≈ a </em>
<em>2 ≈ a</em>
So the function that represents the average length of the lizards across this generation is <em>f(x) = 2 In(x+1) +20 </em>
alright then, 12x + 17 = 66! we started with 17 and there is twelve months with x amount of inches grown plus the already 17 that equals the total 66
so it is 12x + 17 = 66

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
(4x + 2)(x - 5) / 2
x = 2
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute: (4 · 2 + 2)(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Multiply: (8 + 2)(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Add: 10(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Subtract: 10(-3) / 2
- Multiply: -30 / 2
- Divide: -15
To solve this problem, we are going to use the percent proportion, a/b = p/100, where a is the part of a number b, the whole, and p is the percentage out of 100.
When we fill in our known integers into this equation, we get
21.12 / b = 25.6 / 100
Next, to simplify this equation, we should use cross products (means - extremes products theorem). This means multiplying the numerator of one fraction and the denominator of the other fraction and setting them equal to one another.
21.12(100)=25.6(b)
When we multiply, you get
2112 = 25.6b
Finally, we divide both sides by 25.6, to get our variable b, alone, and without a coefficient.
82.5 = b
Therefore, 25.6% of the number 82.5 is 21.12.
Answer:
Percentage of interest at which the money is invested = 5%
Time for which the money is invested = 3 years
The final amount after 3 years = $820
Let us assume the principal amount = x dollars
We can conclude that the principal amount invested was $708.35.
