Given:

The function is

r(x)=0.05(x^2+1)(x-6)

where, function r gives the instantaneous growth rate of a fruit fly population x days after the start of an experiment.

To find:

Number of complex and real zeros.

Time intervals for which the population increased and population deceased.

Solution:

We have,

r(x)=0.05(x^2+1)(x-6)

r(x)=0.05(x^3+x-6x^2-6)

Here, degree of function x is 3. It means, the given function has 3 zeros.

From the given graph it is clear that, the graph of function r(x) intersect x-axis at once.

So, the given function r(x) has only one real root and other two real roots are complex.

Therefore, function r has 2 complex zeros and one real zero.

Before x=6, the graph of r(x) is below the x-axis and after that the graph of r(x) is above the x-axis.

Negative values of r(x) represents the decrease in population and positive value of r(x) represents the increase in population.

Therefore, based on instantaneous growth rate, the population decreased between 0 and 6 hours and the population increased after 6 hours.

<h3>Answer:   x = 6</h3>

======================================================

Work Shown:

\log_{4}(x+10)+\log_{4}(x-2)=\log_{4}(64)\\\\\log_{4}\left((x+10)(x-2)\right)=\log_{4}(64)\\\\(x+10)(x-2)=64\\\\x^2-2x+10x-20=64\\\\x^2-2x+10x-20-64=0\\\\

x^2+8x-84=0\\\\(x+14)(x-6)=0\\\\x+14=0 \ \text{ or } \ x-6=0\\\\x=-14 \ \text{ or } \ x=6\\\\

Those are the possible solutions, but plugging x = -14 back into the original equation will lead to an error. So we rule x = -14 out

x = 6 works as a solution however

Pete borrowed $400 for 1 year. He paid back a total of $440. What was the interest rate per year?
OleMash [197]

I=PRT/100

1. Make R (rate) subject

R/100= I/PT

2. Substitute and calculate

r/100= i/pt

r/100= 40/400 × 1

(<em>4</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em>from 440-400.<em>T</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em>t</em>)

r/100= 0.1

r/100×100= 0.1×100

r=10% (interest rate per year)

To confirm

I=PRT

I= 400×10/100×1

I= $40 (Interest)

MissTica
Diana's age=21 years
Carmen's age=x years
Andrew's age=2x years
21+x+2x=45
21+3x=45
3x=45-21
3x=24
x=24/3
x=8
2x8=16
Carmen is 8 years old and Andrew is 16 years old. Hoped that helps:)
