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

What is the distance from (-4, -7) to (4, 8) ?
Mila [183]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use this formula:

\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2 + (y2 -y1)^2} where x and y indicate the coordinates of the two points

\sqrt{4-(-4)^2 + (8-(-7)^2} = \sqrt{64 + 225} = \sqrt{289} = 17

Can someone please please answer this and explain it? my math teacher didn’t :( will give brainliest points for explanation!!! (
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

QR = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

PR = PQ + QR

PR = x + 19

PQ = 9

So now put what you know in the equation above.

PR = 9 + 2x + 19

PR also equals x + 19

so

x + 19 = 9 + 2x + 19

x + 19 = 2x + 28

19 - 28 + x = 2x

-9 + x = 2x

-9 = 2x - x

-9 = x

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

QR = 2x + 19

QR = 2*-9 + 19

QR = -18 + 19

QR = 1

This really is kind of a nasty question. You don't expect to get a minus number of x.

If the loan is to be paid in 0 months, the amount is very large

m = 50

Of the loan is to be paid in an indefinite amount of time, monthly payment would be 50

Step-by-step explanation:

(12000 + 600t)/12t

1000/t + 50

Asymptotes:

t = 0

If the loan is to be paid in 0 months, the amount is very large

Explain how to find simple interest
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Simple interest is calculated by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal, by the number of days that elapse between payments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal x rate x time = interest.

$100 x .05 x 1 = $5 simple interest for one year.

$100 x .05 x 3 = $15 simple interest for three years.

Remi invests ?600 for 5 years in a saving account. By the end of the 5 years he has received a total of ?75 simple interest. Wor
Allushta [10]

Answer:

2.5 %  

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is

I = Prt

Data:

I = $75

P = $600

t = 5 yr

Calculation:

75 = 600 × r × 5

75 = 3000 r

Divide each side by 3000

r = 75/3000 = 0.025 = 2.5 % APR

The annual percentage rate is 2.5 %.
