Answer:

a) The number of ants in week three is shown through the following geometric progression: 500*1.1*1.1*1.1

b) 1.21

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 500 ants are increasing at a rate of 10% every week which means that we can calculate the week one ants like this

500*1.1

Week two

500*1.1*1.1

and so on.

We write the following equation

500(1.1)^n where n is the number of weeks

We plug in 8 and then 6 for n in the equation above and get

500(1.1)^8=1071.79

500(1.1)^6=885.78

Divide and get that p=1.21

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

16 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we <em>divide 2 over 1/8</em>, to see how many <em>units of 1/8 fits into that of 2</em>.

\frac{2}{\frac{1}{8} } can be rewritten as <em>2*8</em>. 2*8 = 16 bags.
