The second one I believe because it’s basiclalu going up one half everytime to get to one
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Perimeter = 2 ( 5+4) = <u>18 cm</u>
Area = 5 × 4 = <u>20 cm^2</u>
2. Perimeter = 2 (5+5) = <u>20 cm</u>
Area = 5 × 5 = <u>25 cm^2</u>
3. Cups of seed needed per sq. meter = Area of the rectangle backyard
= 6 × 7
= <u>42 </u><u>cups</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>seed</u>
4. Feet of fence needed = Perimeter of the Square garden
= 2(8+8)
<u>= 32 feet</u>
5. Perimeter of rectangular quilt = 2 (4+6) feet
= <u>20 feet</u>
6. Area of the room = 9 feet × 8 feet
= <u>72 feet^2</u>
This exponential growth/decay (in this case decay because r<1) of the form:
f=ir^t, f=final value, i=initial value, r=common ratio or "rate", t=time.
Since the population decreases by 4.5% each year the common ratio is:
r=(100-4.5)/100=0.955 so we can say
P(t)=8500(0.955^t)
....
7000=8500(0.955^t)
14/17=(955/1000)^t taking the natural log of both sides
ln(14/17)=t ln(955/1000)
t=ln(14/17)/ln(955/1000)
t≈4.22 years (to nearest hundredth of a year)
Since t is the years since 2010, the population will fall to 7000 in the year (2010+4.22=2014.22, more than four years will have elapsed) 2015.
B! Would be the answer! Good luck on the test!
