Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 is 5/10 so 5/10 minus 3/10 is 2/10 simplified to 1/5th

NO LINKS!! Use the method of substitution to solve the system. (If there's no solution, enter no solution). Part 11z

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}$

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

$\begin{cases}y=x^2-9\\y=4x-4\end{cases}$

To solve by the method of substitution, substitute the first equation into the second equation and rearrange so that the equation equals zero:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-9&=4x-4\\x^2-4x-9&=-4\\x^2-4x-5&=0\end{aligned}$

Factor the quadratic:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-4x-5&=0\\x^2-5x+x-5&=0\\x(x-5)+1(x-5)&=0\\(x+1)(x-5)&=0\end{aligned}$

Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> and solve for x:

$\implies x+1=0 \implies x=-1$

$\implies x-5=0 \implies x=5$

Substitute the found values of x into the <u>second equation</u> and solve for y:

$\begin{aligned}x=-1 \implies y&=4(-1)-4\\y&=-4-4\\y&=-8\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}x=5 \implies y&=4(5)-4\\y&=20-4\\y&=16\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}$

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}$

Osama starts with a population of 1,000 amoebas that increases 30% in size every hour for a number of hours, h. The expression 1

Blizzard [7]

Answer: The correct option is A, itis the product of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

Explanation:

From the given information,

Initial population = 1000

Increasing rate or growth rate = 30% every hour.

No of population increase in every hour is,

$1000\times \frac{30}{100} =1000\times 0.3$

Total population after h hours is,

$1000(1+0.3)^h$

It is in the form of,

$P(t)=P_0(t)(1+r)^t$

Where $P_0(t)$ is the initial population, r is increasing rate, t is time and [tex(1+r)^t[/tex] is the growth factor after time t.

In the above equation 1000 is the initial population and $(1+0.3)^h$ is the growth factor after h hours. So the equation is product of of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.

Therefore, the correct option is A, itis the product of the initial population and the growth factor after h hours.
