Answer:

f(x) = 86(1.01)^7x; They grow at approximately the rate of 1% per day.

Step-by-step explanation

86 is the number of weeds at the starting point of the question.

8/7% each day,   7 being the total number of days in the week, the weekly growth 8%:  1 day is 8/7% growth or 1.14% rounded up to 1%

In the original equation the 8% growth was represented by 1.08

Substituting the weekly rate of 8% with the daily rate of 1%, or 1.08 with 1.01 the new function is:

f(x) = 86(1.01)^7x

The sign of "b" on the numerator should be negative. So we conclude that the correct option is false.

<h3>Is the equation in the image correct or incorrect?</h3>

For a quadratic equation of the form:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

By using the Bhaskara's formula, the solutions of the equation:

0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c

Are given by the formula:

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

Notice that the sign of the first term on the numerator should be negative, while on the image it is positive.

So the equation shown in the image is incorrect.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the final probability that this has happened, we must multiply the probability of each event, they tell us that the probability that it is a girl is 1/2 and this happened 4 times, therefore:

(1/2) ^ 4 = 0.0625

that is, the probability that 4 girls are born is 6.25%

an unusual probability is considered when it is less than 5%, therefore, although it approaches this figure, it is not unusual
