Answer:

First piece = 6 inches

Second piece = 12 inches

Third piece = 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the first piece = x

Length of the second piece = 2x

Length of the third piece = 3x

Total length is 36 inches:

x + 2x + 3x = 36

6x = 36

x = 6

Therefore, the lengths are:

First piece = 6 inches

Second piece = 12 inches

Third piece = 18 inches

Rewrite y=5(14)t/6 in the form y=a(1+r)t or y=a(1−r)t. Round the value of r to the nearest ten thousandth. Then tell whether the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

y=5(1+0.5525)^t where r=0.5525  which is in the form of y=a(1+r)^t or y=a(1-r)^t..

The expression represents an exponential growth function.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y=5(14)^{\frac{t}{6}

To rewrite the given equation in the form y=a(1+r)^t or y=a(1-r)^t..

y=5(14)^{\frac{t}{6}

 =5((14)^{\frac{1}{6}})^t

=5[1.5525]^t

y=5(1+0.5525)^t where r=0.5525  which is in the form of y=a(1+r)^t or y=a(1-r)^t..

Since 1.5525 > 1, we have that the expression represents an exponential growth function.
