This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.
So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.
There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.
Answer:
The second tank.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both filling up at the same rate, all you would have to do is multiply the gallons.
4/5 multiplying top and bottom by 8 is 32/40
7/8 multiplying top and bottom by 5 is 35/40
Answer: 7

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
PD = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
PC x PD = PA x PB
3 x PD = 4 x (4 + 2)
3PD = 24
PD = 8
