Answer:

It will take 12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve the problem

2/3 mile          1 miles

------------   = ------------------

8 minutes      x minutes


Using cross products

2/3 * x = 8*1

Multiply each side by 3/2 to isolate x

3/2 * 2/3 x = 3/2 * 8

x = 12

A virus that initially infected four people is spreading at a rate of 15% each week.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

"f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily"

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complete Question:</u>

A virus that initially infected four people is spreading at a rate of 15% each week. The following function represents the weekly spread of the virus: f(x) = 4(1.15)x. Rewrite the function to show how quickly the virus spreads each day and calculate this rate as a percentage.

f(x) = 4(1.15)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 1.5% daily

f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily

f(x) = 4(1.157)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2.66% daily

f(x) = 4(1.02)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 0.2% daily

<u>Solution:</u>

The weekly number of people infected would be:

f(x)=4(1.15)^x

7 days in a week, so daily number of people infected would be:

f(x)=4(1+r)^{7x}

To find daily rate, we set these 2 equations equal and solve for r:

4(1.15)^x=4(1+r)^{7x}\\1.15^x=(1+r)^{7x}\\1.15^x=((1+r)^7)^x\\1+r=1.02\\r=1-1.02=0.02

That is 0.02*100 = 2% daily

2nd answer choice is right.

How can you find the value of n in this equation?
lesya692 [45]
The answer would be n=37 because…
40+n=77
subtract 40 on both sides, cancelling it out on the left side and 77-40=37 so:
n=37
