Elle decreased her monthly budget from $250 to $200. Calculate the percent decrease

Mathematics
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
6 0
Formula for finding percent change (increase or decrease) is amount of the change divided by the original amount.

Here, the amount of the change is 50 and the original amount is 250.

50/250= 0.2

Multiply by 100 to get percent.

20% decrease (because budget went down)

bacteria colonies can increase by 73% every 2 days. if you start with 150 bacteria microorganisms, how large would the colony be
slavikrds [6]

Using an exponential function, it is found that the colony will have 1344 bacteria after 8 days.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Considering the initial amount of 150, and the growth rate of 73% each 2 days, the equation is given by:

A(t) = 150(1.73)^{\frac{t}{2}}

Hence, after 8 days, the amount of bacteria is given by:

A(8) = 150(1.73)^{\frac{8}{2}} = 1344

Solve the logarithmic equation . Round the answer to four decimal places . 2^x =25
levacccp [35]

Answer:

x = 4.6439

Step-by-step explanation:

2^x =25

Take the log of each side

log  2^x = log 25

We know that log a^b = b log a

x log 2 = log 25

Divide each side by log 2

x = log 25  / log 2

x =4.643856

Rounding to 4 decimal places

x = 4.6439

Answer:

Option B, (-9, -5), 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The point slope form in:  y - y1 = m(x - x1)</u>

m is the slope

(x1, y1) is the point

<u>Step 1:  Determine what the slope and point is their equation</u>

y + 5 = 3(x + 9)

3 is the slope

(-9, -5) is the point

Answer:  Option B, (-9, -5), 3
