Andrew is paid $4 per hour for the first 30 hours he works each week. He makes $5 per hour for each hour he works over 30 hours
klasskru [66]

Answer:

If Andrew works for 30 for $4 he will have a total wage of 30×4=$120

And gets additional $5for every hr worked beyond 30hrs in that week

So he gets a total of 5(x-30)

So if he works for 40hrs he gets a total wage of

5(40-30)=50

120+50=$170

If he works for 50 hours he gets Total wage of

5(50-30)=100

120+100=$220

A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function p(x) = 20(1.014)x , where x represents the number of days
Nitella [24]

Answer:

20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits

the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100 is 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

A population of rabbits in a lab, p(x), can be modeled by the function

p(x) = 20(1.014)^x

This model is exponential. Where 20 = initial population of the rabbits

1.014 = growth rate of the rabbits with 1.4% increase rate of the rabbits

To find the average rate of change from day 50 to day 100,

find the population p(50) and p(100). Subtract them and divide by 100 - 50 = 50. 

p(50) = 20(1.014)50 = 40.08... 

p(100) = 20(1.014)100 = 80.32... 

(80.32 - 40.08) / (100 - 50) = 40.24/50 = 0.8048. which is approximately 0.8 to the nearest tenth. 

The rate of change is 0.8.
