None of the equations are true they are all false when you plug in 3.5 for x
Answer:
7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
At 25% per day, it will take approximately 3 days to double the population, so approximately 6 days for the population to quadruple. Checking that number, we find it is not quite enough for the experiment, so another day is required.
"Guess and check" as a method of solution works especially well if you have an automated checker to evaluate your guess. A graphing calculator or spreadsheet can work well for this.
_____
We guess 3 days as the doubling time using the "rule of 72" that says the product of percentage and doubling time is about 72. That is, 72/25 ≈ 3. (This is only a very rough approximation of doubling time, best for rates near 8%.)
Answer:
- digits used once: 12
- repeated digits: 128
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for a number to be divisible by 4, its last two digits must be divisible by 4. This will be the case if either of these conditions holds:
- the ones digit is an even multiple of 2, and the tens digit is even
- the ones digit is an odd multiple of 2, and the tens digit is odd.
We must count the ways these conditions can be met with the given digits.
__
Since we only have even numbers to work with, the ones digit must be an even multiple of 2: 4 or 8. (The tens digit cannot be odd.) The digits 4 and 8 comprise half of the available digits, so half of all possible numbers made from these digits will be divisible by 4.
<h3>digits used once</h3>
If the numbers must use each digit exactly once, there will be 4! = 24 of them. 24/2 = 12 of these 4-digit numbers will be divisible by 4.
<h3>repeated digits</h3>
Each of the four digits can have any of four values, so there will be 4^4 = 256 possible 4-digit numbers. Of these, 256/2 = 128 will be divisible by 4.
