Answer:
p = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
p + 4/p - 4
multiplying through by p,
p×p + 4/p ×p - 4×p
p² + 4 - 4p = 0
p² - 4p + 4 = 0
factorizing,
p(p - 2) -2(p - 2) =0
(p -2)(p -2) =0
p-2 =0
p=2
We have to answer what does the 15 represent in the function : f ( x ) = 15 * 2^x, which models the increasing of the frog population at a lake. We know that the frog population doubles every 3 weeks and that: f ( 6 ) = 960. It means that: 15 * 2^ 6 = 15 * 64 = 960. And also f ( 0 ) = 15 * 2^0 = 15 * 1 = 15. Therefore it is a starting population. Answer: The 15 represents <span>B - The starting population.</span>
It is 3.
You can check this by seeing 3^3 ie. 3x3x3, which comes out as 27.
You can check the cube root on a calculator.
