Answer: Thought I’d return the favor and help u with this question! But anyways, the axis of symmetry is at x = -3.

Explanatio: This can be found by looking at the basic form of vertex form:

y = (x - h)^2 + k

In this basic form the vertex is (h, k). By looking at what is plugged into the equation, it is clear that h = -3 and k = -4. This means the vertex is at (-3, -4).

It is a fact that the axis of symmetry is a vertical line of x = (vertex value of x). So we can determine that the axis of symmetry is at x = -3

i hope this helps u

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the differential equation is

$\frac{dP}{dt} = 0.04P\left(1-\frac{P}{500}\right)$ .

We need to solve it and obtain an expression for $P(t)$ in order to complete the exercise.

First of all, this is an example of the logistic equation, which has the general form

$\frac{dP}{dt} = kP\left(1-\frac{P}{K}\right)$ .

In order to make the calculation easier we are going to solve the general equation, and later substitute the values of the constants, notice that $k=0.04$ and $K=500$ and the initial condition $P(0)=100$ .

Notice that this equation is separable, then

$\frac{dP}{P(1-P/K)} = kdt$ .

Now, intagrating in both sides of the equation

$\int\frac{dP}{P(1-P/K)} = \int kdt = kt +C$ .

In order to calculate the integral in the left hand side we make a partial fraction decomposition:

$\frac{1}{P(1-P/K)} = \frac{1}{P} - \frac{1}{K-P}$ .

So,

$\int\frac{dP}{P(1-P/K)} = \ln|P| - \ln|K-P| = \ln\left| \frac{P}{K-P} \right| = -\ln\left| \frac{K-P}{P} \right|$ .

We have obtained that:

$-\ln\left| \frac{K-P}{P}\right| = kt +C$

which is equivalent to

$\ln\left| \frac{K-P}{P}\right|= -kt -C$

Taking exponentials in both hands:

$\left| \frac{K-P}{P}\right| = e^{-kt -C}$

Hence,

$\frac{K-P(t)}{P(t)} = Ae^{-kt}$ .

The next step is to substitute the given values in the statement of the problem:

$\frac{500-P(t)}{P(t)} = Ae^{-0.04t}$ .

We calculate the value of $A$ using the initial condition $P(0)=100$ , substituting $t=0$ :

$\frac{500-100}{100} = A}$ and $A=4$ .

So,

$\frac{500-P(t)}{P(t)} = 4e^{-0.04t}$ .

Finally, as we want the value of $t$ such that $P(t)=200$ , we substitute this last value into the above equation. Thus,

$\frac{500-200}{200} = 4e^{-0.04t}$ .

This is equivalent to $\frac{3}{8} = e^{-0.04t}$ . Taking logarithms we get $\ln\frac{3}{8} = -0.04t$ . Then,

$t = \frac{\ln\frac{3}{8}}{-0.04} \approx 24.520731325$ .

So, the population of rats will be 200 after 25 months.

12^13–12^12+12^11 is divisible by 7 and 19.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The statement is true

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following :

$12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11}$ is divisible by 7 and 19, true or false?

The given expression is $12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11}$

Take $12^{11}$ as a common

$12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11} = 12^{11}*(12^2-12^1+12^0)\\= 12^{11} *(144-12+1)\\=12^{11} * 133\\= 12^{11} * 7 * 19$

So, $12^{11} * 7 * 19$ divided 7 = $12^{11} * 19$

And $12^{11} * 7 * 19$ divided 19 = $12^{11} * 7$

$12^{13}-12^{12}+12^{11}$ is divisible by 7 and 19 (<u>True</u>)

A video game store allows customers to rent games for 4.75 each. Customers can also buy a membership for $54 annually, and video

ankoles [38]

Answer:

24 video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of video games.
We have been given that a video game store allows customers to rent games for $4.75 each. So the cost of renting x video games would be 4.75x.

We are also told that customers can also buys a membership for $54 annually, and video games would only cost $2.50 each. The cost of renting x video games after membership would be 2.50x + 54

To find the number of video-games that will cost same for both options, we will equate both expressions as:

4.75x = 2.50x + 54
4.75x - 2.50x = 2.50x - 2.50x + 54

Therefore, a customer would have rent 24 video games in a year in order for the two options to be equal.
