On the first day of spring, an entire field of flowering trees blossoms. The population of locusts consuming these flowers rapid

ly increases as the trees blossom. The locust population increases by a factor of 5 every 22 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 7600 locusts in the population.


Write a function that models the locust population t days since the first day of spring.

Answer:

y=7600(5^(t/22))

Step-by-step explanation:

This is going to be an exponential function as it grows rapidly.

This type of question can be solved using the formula y=a(r^x), where a is the inital amount, r the factor by which the amount increases and x is the unit of time after which the amount increases.

x=t/22

a=7600

r=5

∴y=7600(5^(t/22))

Answer:

1) 102.7 meters

2) 11

Step-by-step explanation:

1) -4.9x² + 75x = -4.9x² + 50x + 38

25x = 38

x = 1.52 s

Height = -4.9(1.52)² + 75(1.52) = 102.67904 m = 102.7 m

2) f(x) = x² + 3x - 2

f(2) = 2² + 3(2) - 2 = 8

f(6) = 6² + 3(6) - 2 = 52

Average rate of change:

(52-8)/(6-2) = 11

What is the value of x?
Pepsi [2]

The angle between the segment labled x and the chord labeled 30 is not specified. The measure of x cannot be determined, except to say that it is somewhere between 16 and the radius of the circle, √(16²+15²) = √481 ≈ 21.93.

_____

If the angle between x and the chord were marked as a right angle, one could say x=16, because all chords of the same length are the same distance from the center of the circle.
