Answer:

1,000 readers

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use ratios; if 50 represents 5%, then what x number represents 100%

\frac{5}{50} = \frac{100}{x}; solve for x by multiplying 100*50 and dividing by 5

x = 1000

4x -5 = 2(2x +1)<br> I need help
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5=2\left(2x+1\right)

Expand:

4x-5=2* \:2x+2* \:1

4x-5=4x+2

Add 5 to both sides:

4x-5+5=4x+2+5

4x=4x+7

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x-4x=4x+7-4x

0=7

No solution as this is false.

A 14 gram sample of a substance that's used to preserve fruit and vegetables has a k-value of 0.1092. Find the substance's half-
nignag [31]

Answer:

t = 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

N=Noe^(-kt)

No = 14 grams

k = .1092

We want to find t when N = 7 or 1/2 of 14

N=Noe^(-kt)

7 = 14 e ^ (-.1092t)

Divide each side by 14

1/2 = e ^ (-.1092t)

take the natural log of each side

ln (1/2) = ln e ^ (-.1092t)

ln (1/2) = -.1092t

Divide each side by -.1092

ln (1/2)/ -.1092 = t

t≈6.3475

Rounding to the nearest tenth

t = 6.3

Answer:

D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the graph of G(x) = x^2, which is a parabola centered at (0, 0)

We are also told that the graph of the function F(x) resembles the graph of the function G(x) but has been shifted and stretched.

The graph of F(x) shown is facing up, so we know that it is multiplied by a <em>positive</em> number. This means we can eliminate A and C because they are both multiplied by -2.

Our two equations left are:

 B. F(x) = 2(x+3)^2 + 3

 D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3

Well, we can see that the base of our parabola is (3, 3), so let's plug in the x value, 3, and see which equation gives us a y-value of 3.

y = 2(3+3)^2 + 3 =

2(6)^2 + 3 =

2·36 + 3 =

72 + 3 =

75

That one didn't give us a y value of 3.

y = 2(3-3)^2 + 3 =

2(0)^2 + 3 =

2·0 + 3 =

0 + 3 =

3

This equation gives us an x-value of 3 and a y-value of 3, which is what we wanted, so our answer is:

D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3

Hopefully this helps you to understand parabolas better.
