8 0

Hey there!

If we're solving for "x" then follow these steps

$Add$ $9$ to each of your sides

Like: $4x - 9 + 9 \\ = 35 +9$

That gives us: $4x = 44$

$Divide$ by the number $4$ on each of your sides

Like: $\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{44}{4}$

We cancel: $\frac{4x}{4}$ because fives us a $1$

We keep: $\frac{44}{4}$ because it gives us a $11$ (our answer)

$Answer: x = 11$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day

So first

4x+8-17=35
So make the equation equal 0
4x +8 -17 -35=0

Combine like terms

4x-44= 0

Add 44 to 0

4x =44

Divide by 4

X = 11

Good luck :D

A population of bees is decreasing. The population in a particular region this year is 1,250. After 1 year, it is estimated tha

8_murik_8 [283]

To model this situation, we are going to use the decay formula: $A=Pe^{rt}$
where
$A$ is the final pupolation
$P$ is the initial population
$e$ is the Euler's constant
$r$ is the decay rate
$t$ is the time in years

A. We know for our problem that the initial population is 1,250, so $P=1250$ ; we also know that after a year the population is 1000, so $A=1000$ and $t=1$ . Lets replace those values in our formula to find $r$ :
$A=Pe^{rt}$
$1000=1250e^{r}$
$e^{r}= \frac{1000}{1250}$
$e^{r}= \frac{4}{5}$
$ln(e^{r})=ln( \frac{4}{5} )$
$r=ln( \frac{4}{5} )$
$r=-02231$

Now that we have $r$ , we can write a function to model this scenario:
$A(t)=1250e^{-0.2231t}$ .

B. Here we are going to use a graphing utility to graph the function we derived in the previous point. Please check the attached image.

C.
- The function is decreasing
- The function doe snot have a x-intercept
- The function has a y-intercept at (0,1250)
- Since the function is decaying, it will have a maximum at t=0:
$A(0)=1250e^{(-0.2231)(0)$
$A_{0}=1250e^{0}$
$A_{0}=1250$
- Over the interval [0,10], the function will have a minimum at t=10:
$A(10)=1250e^{(-0.2231)(10)$
$A_{10}=134.28$

D. To find the rate of change of the function over the interval [0,10], we are going to use the formula: $m= \frac{A(0)-A(10)}{10-0}$
where
$m$ is the rate of change
$A(10)$ is the function evaluated at 10
$A(0)$ is the function evaluated at 0
We know from previous calculations that $A(10)=134.28$ and $A(0)=1250$ , so lets replace those values in our formula to find $m$ :
$m= \frac{134.28-1250}{10-0}$
$m= \frac{-1115.72}{10}$
$m=-111.572$
We can conclude that the rate of change of the function over the interval [0,10] is -111.572.

lubasha [3.4K]

Total Time = (M x K) / (M + K)
5 = (8 x K) / (8 + K)
40 + 5 K = 8K
40 = 3K
King can do the job in 13.33 Hours

King could mow (1 / 13.33) of the lawn in one hour.
