Answer:

L(t) = 1100(1.87)^(t/2.4)

Corrected question;

On the first day of spring, an entire field of flowering trees blossoms. The population of locusts consuming these flowers rapidly increases as the trees blossom. The locust population gains 0.87 of its size every 2.4 days, and can be modeled by a function, L, which depends on the amount of time, t (in days). Before the first day of spring, there were 1100 locusts in the population. Write a function that models the locust population t days since the first day of spring.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Initial amount P = 1100

Rate of growth r = 87% = 0.87

Time step k = 2.4 days

The case above can be represented by an exponential function;

L(t) = P(1+r)^(t/k)

Where;

L(t) = locust population at time t days after the first day of spring

P = initial locust population

r = rate of increase

t = time in days

k = time step

Substituting the given values;

L(t) = 1100(1+0.87)^(t/2.4)

L(t) = 1100(1.87)^(t/2.4)

the locust population t days since the first day of spring can be modelled using the equation;

L(t) = 1100(1.87)^(t/2.4)

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve these kind of question we just simply keep on inserting the values of x and if we get the required value of y that is in the table that equation is our answer, For example lets take Option A,

y = 8x

If we insert x = 0 we get,

y = 8(0)

y=0

but in the table it says we get 14 so option A is incorrect

Like this we keep checking for more values and all the values of x satisfy our equation in Option B like this,

y=8x+14\\y=8(0)+14\\y= 14\\\\y=8x+14\\y=8(1)+14\\y=8+14\\y=22\\\\y=8x+14\\y=8(2)+14\\y=16+14\\y=30\\

and so on so Option B is the answer

In the figure below, AB=AE, AC=AD and AP is perpendicular to BE. Prove that BC=DE.
NISA [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In the figure, as AB is equal to AE, ABE is an equilateral triangle.

As AP is perpendicular to BE

=> AP is the height of the triangle ABE.

In an equilateral triangle, the median and the height is the same, so that AP is also the median of the triangle.

=> P is the midpoint of BE

=> PE = PB

2) In the figure, as AC = AD, so that ACD is an equilateral triangle.

As AP is perpendicular to BE,  so that it is perpendicular to CD as well

=> AP is the height of the triangle ACD

In an equilateral triangle, the median and the height is the same, so that AP is also the median of the triangle ACD.

=> P is the midpoint of CD

=> PC = PD

We have:

+) PB = PE

+) PC = PD

=> PB - PC = PE - PD => BC = DE
