Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variation is proportional dividing the y-value by the x-value will give the same result for all table entries. That quotient is the constant of variation (k).
Here 6.4/4 = 11.2/7 = 16/10 = 20.8/13 = 1.6
The value of y varies directly as x, and the constant of variation is 1.6. The equation is ...
y = 1.6x
Answer:
768 bugs
Step-by-step explanation:
You can rewrite this problem as a function as time where the bug population is f(x), and x is the number of days since the start.
f(x)=6*2^(x/5)
Here, the 6 represents the number of bugs that you start with, the two shows that they double every day, and the /5 shows that they double every 5 days.
By plugging in 35, you get 6*2^7, which is 768.
Answer:
5.6 days
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Initial Mass; N_o = 25 g
Mass at time(t); N_t = 25/2 = 12.5 (I divide by 2 because we are dealing with half life)
k = 0.1229
Formula is given as;
N_t = N_o•e^(-kt)
Plugging in the relevant values;
12.5 = 25 × e^(-0.1229t)
e^(-0.1229t) = 12.5/25
e^(-0.1229t) = 0.5
(-0.1229t) = In 0.5
-0.1229t = -0.6931
t = -0.6931/-0.1229
t = 5.6 days
