How did you determine which value to use for the constant and which value to use for the coefficient?

Answer:

Each term in an algebraic expression is separated by a + sign or J sign. In , the terms are: 5x, 3y, and 8. When a term is made up of a constant multiplied by a variable or variables, that constant is called a coefficient. In the term 5x, the coefficient is 5.

A coefficient is a number that is next to a variable. Let’s say the variable is x and the equation is 3x+4. The coefficient would be 3 because it is the number next to the variable. The constant is a number that is not associated with the variable. The constant in the equation above would be 4.

What is the volume of the cylinder?

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Option D. $882\pi\ units^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=7\ units$

$h=18\ units$

substitute

$V=\pi (7^{2})(18)=882\pi\ units^{3}$ -----> exact value of the volume

In an insect colony there are 270 insects after 9 days. If there were initially 80 insects how long will it take the population

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects is 17 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth function of the insects is exponential.

The exponential growth function is:

$y=a(1+r)^{t}$

Here,

<em>y</em> = final value

<em>a</em> = initial value

<em>r</em> = growth rate

<em>t</em> = time taken

It is provided that there were 270 insects after 9 days and initially there were 80 insects.

Compute the value of <em>r</em> as follows:

$y=a(1+r)^{t}\\\\270=80(1+r)^{9}\\\\3.375=(1+r)^{9}\\\\\ln(3.375)=9\cdot \ln(1+r)\\\\0.135155=\ln(1+r)\\\\1+r=1.14471\\\\r=0.145$

Now, compute the time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects as follows:

$800=80(1+0.145)^{t}\\\\10=(1.145)^{t}\\\\\ln(10)=t\cdot \ln(1.145)\\\\t=17.00522\\\\t\approx 17$

Thus, the time it will take the population to grow to 800 insects is 17 days.
