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)

Which is closest to the total surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 5 inches and a height that is equal to its diameter?
Pie
For this case, the surface area of the cylinder is given by:
 A = 2 * pi * r * h + 2 * pi * r ^ 2
 Where.
 r: cylinder radius
 h: cylinder height
 Substituting values we have:
 A = 2 * 3.14 * 5 * (2 * 5) + 2 * 3.14 * 5 ^ 2
 A = 471
 Answer:
 
The total surface area of the cylinder is:
 
A = 471
