function.
P(t) = 400(1.22)

Answer:

  • Growth
  • 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • P(t) = 400(1.22)^{t}

<u>Initial population size is when t = 0</u>

  • P(0) = 400(1.22)⁰ = 400(1) = 400

<u>The multiple of 1.22 is applied every year, so the ratio of change is:</u>

  • 1.22 = 122% = 100% + 22%

This is an exponential growth which represents 22% annual growth.

Write the equation of the circle centered at (3, 5) and tangent to x = -1. I need help pleasse
Annette [7]

Answer:

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the centre and r the radius

given (h, k ) = (3, 5 ) we require to find r

r is the distance from the centre to a point on the circle

given x = - 1 is a tangent the r is the distance between the x- coordinates

r = | 3 - (- 1) | = | 3 + 1 | = | 4 | = 4

then equation of circle is

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 4² , that is

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 16

Write the expression as a square of a monomial. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> a 81x^4
poizon [28]

Answer:

(9x²)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 81x⁴, to write the expression as a square of a monomial, first we will assign a variable to the expression.

y = 81x⁴

Then we take the square root of both sides of the expression

√y = √81x⁴

y^½ = √81 × √x⁴

y^½ = 9x²

Squaring both sides of the resulting equation to get y back

(y^½)² = (9x²)²

y = (9x²)²

The expression as a square of a monomial is (9x²)²

10. A road roller takes 750 revolutions to move once to
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use consistent units. The length of the roller is 2.8 m. The diameter is 168 cm = 1.68 m

Circumference of roller = 1.68π m

Contact area of roller = 1.68π × 2.8 = 4.704π m²

Each rotation levels 4.704π m² of the playground.

Area of playground = 750 rotations × (4.704π m²)/rotation

= 3528π m²

≈ 11,084 m²
