Question 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

698 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, we can represent an exponential growth function as;

y = a•(1 + r)^t

originally, there were 3 fishes

The original value in this case means a = 3

After 6 weeks, there were 31

31 in this case is y

r is the increase percentage or rate

t is the time

So, we have it that;

31 = 3•(1 + r)^6

31/3 = (1 + r)^6

10.33 = (1 + r)^6

ln 10.33 = 6 ln (1 + r)

ln 10.33/6 = ln (1 + r)

e^0.3892 = (1 + r)

1 + r = 1.476

r = 1.476-1

r = 0.476 or 47.6%

So the growth percentage or rate is 47.6%

For 14 weeks, we simply have the value of t as 14;

So ;

y = 3•(1 + 0.476)^14

y = 3(1.476)^14

y = 698 fishes

Two students walk in the same direction along a straight path, at a constant speed - one at .90 m/s and the other at 1.90 m/s.a.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

a)The second student arrive 7 minutes and 36 seconds sooner

b)They have to walk 598,51 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed= Distance/Time

We are looking for time now

Time = Distance/Speed

First student

Time = 780 m/0.90 m/s=866,66 seconds

Second student

Time = 780 m/1.90 m/s=410,52 seconds

Difference=866,66-410,52= 456,14 seconds

In minutes

Difference= 456,14 seconds /60=7 minutes 36 seconds

Distance=Speed x Time

Speed¹ x Time¹ =Speed² x Time²

Time¹= Time² + 5.50 min

5.50 min =350 seconds

Time²  =Speed¹ x Time¹ /Speed²

Time²  =Speed¹ x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /Speed²

Time²  =0.9 x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /1.9

Time²  =0,4737 x (Time² + 350 seconds  )

Time²  =0,4737 Time² + 165,79 seconds

Time²  - 0,4737 Time² = 165,79 seconds

0,5263 Time² = 165,79 seconds

Time² = 165,79 seconds/0,5263 =315,01 seconds

Distance=1,9 x 315,01 seconds = 598,51 m

Yolanda owns 4 rabbits. She expects the number of rabbits to double every year.
jok3333 [9.3K]
R=Number of rabbits

y=Years that have passed by { y ≥ 0 }

R=f(y) --> R is a function of y.
---------------------------------------------

Note that when:

y=0, R=4 ---> Point: (0, 4)

y=1, R=8 ---> Point (1, 8)

y=2, R=16 ---> Point (2, 16)

y=3, R=32 ---> Point (3, 32)

y=4, R=64 ---> Point (4, 64)

--------------------------------------------

So the equation you want is going to form a curved graph.

That equation is:

R={ 2 }^{ y+2 }

<em>*You can test out this function on any decent graphing software.</em>
