For this case we have a function of the form:

y = A * (b) ^ x

Where,

A: initial value

b: growth rate

x: time in months

Rewriting the equation we have:

y = 250 * (2) ^ {(\frac{1}{6} * x)}

When 2 years pass, we have 24 months.

Therefore, substituting the value of x = 24 in the given equation we have:

y = 250 * (2) ^ {(\frac{1}{6} * 24)}\\y = 4000

Answer:

there will be 4000 crickets after 2 years

X squared -8x+14=2x-7
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

x = 3 or x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

X² - 8x + 14 = 2x - 7

x² - 8x + 14 - 2x + 7 = 0

Now we have a quadratic equation ;

x² - 10x + 21 = 0

-3 and - 7 gives a sum of - 10 and a product of 21

x² - 3x - 7x + 21 = 0

x(x - 3) - 7(x - 3) = 0

(x - 3) = 0 or (x - 7) = 0

x = 3 or x = 7

Plz help giveing 10 pints
erik [133]

Just plug in the variables so you would have -(-3) - 4^2 / 4(-3) - (5-4). Next you solve it for 3 - 16 / -12 - 1, -13/-13 = 1. Your final answer is 1. If this is right could you possibly give me brainliest? Hope this helped.
