<span>        A rumor spreads among a population of [unknown number] people at a rate proportional to the product of the number of people who have heard the rumor and the number of people who have not heard the rumor.

        If [variable] p denotes the number of people who have heard the rumor, the differential equations could be used to model the situation with respect to time (t), where as (k) is a positive constant. 

</span>As stated : "a rumor is changing at a rate ".

= \dfrac{dp}{dt}

"is proportional "

\dfrac{dp}{dt} = k * \text{Unknown number}

"product of number of people who heard rumor and who haven't"

p * (n-p)&#10;

<span>Since n is the total population the correct answer is (b). </span>

Factor 4a2 - 25.<br><br> A. (2a + 5)(2a + 5)<br> B. (2a - 5)(2a - 5)<br> C. (2a - 5)(2a + 5)
nikdorinn [45]

This is the diference of 2 perfect squares. 4 is a perfect square, x^2 is a perfect square, and 25 is a perfect square. The pattern for this is (ax + b)(ax - b). Our a is 2 since 2*2 = 4, and our b is 5 since 5*5 = 25. So your factors are (2a+5)(2a-5), choice C.

Does (-1, 2), (1, 1),( 1 -1), (2,1), (4,2) represent y as a function
Paha777 [63]

No. A function maps one input to exactly one output. The given relation maps 1 to both 1 and -1, as indicated by the pairs (1, 1) and (1, -1).

The area of the triangle formed by points of intersection of parabola y=a(x−3)(x+2) with the coordinate axes is 10. Find a if it
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: a = 4

Step-by-step explanation: Area of a triangle is calculated as: A_{t}=\frac{b.h}{2}.

The triangle formed by the parabola has base (b) equal to the distance between the points where the graph touches x-axis and height (h) is the point where graph touches the y-axis.

The points on the x-axis are the roots of the quadratic equation:

a(x-3)(x+2)=0

(x-3)(x+2)=0

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

or

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

So, base is the distance between (-2,0) and (3,0).

Since they are in the same coordinate, distance will be:

b = 3 - (-2)

b = 5

Area of the triangle is 10. So constant a is

10=\frac{5.a}{2}

5a = 10.2

a = 4

The constant a of the function y = a(x-3)(x+2) is 4.
