Complete question is;
A skull cleaning factory cleans animal skulls and other types of animals using flesh eating Beatles. The factory owner started with only 13 adult beetles.
After 35 days, the beetle population grew to 26 adult beetles. How long did it take before the beetle population was 13,000 beetles?
Answer:
349 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Initial amount of adult beetles; A_o = 13
Amount of adult beetles after 35 days; A_35 = 26
Thus can be solved using the exponential formua;
A_t = A_o × e^(kt)
Where A_t is the amount after time t, t is the time and k is a constant.
Plugging in the relevant values;
26 = 13 × e^(35k)
e^(35k) = 26/13
e^(35k) = 2
35k = In 2
35k = 0.6931
k = 0.6931/35
k = 0.0198
Now,when the beetle population is 12000,we can find the time from;
13000 = 13 × e^(k × 0.0198)
e^(k × 0.0198) = 13000/13
e^(k × 0.0198) = 1000
0.0198k = In 1000
0.0198k = 6.9078
k = 6.9078/0.0198
k ≈ 349 days.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>Least Common Multiple</u> (LCM) of a group of numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers.
we have
15,18 and 25
Decompose the numbers in prime factors
Multiply common and uncommon numbers with their greatest exponent
so
The LCM is equal to
Answer: 10x+16
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property a(b+c)= ab+ac
so
-2(-5x-8) = (-2 * -5x) - (-2* -8)
=
10x-(-16)
=10x+16

Answer:d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1 pear = $0.45
1 mango = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
8 pears + 5 mangoes = $11.10 ➡ 8p + 5m = 11.10
5 pears + 4 mangoes = $8.25 ➡ 5p + 4m = 8.25
multiply first equation by -4 and second one by 5
-4 ×(8p+5m) = 11.10 ➡ -32p - 20m = 44.4
5 ×(5p+4m) = 8.25 ➡ 25p + 20m = 41.25
add both equations up
-32p - 20m + 25p + 20m = 44.4 + 41.25
-7p = 3.15 ➡ p = $0.45
use this value to find the price of mango
5×0.45 + 4×m = 8.25 ➡ 2.25 + 4m = 8.25 ➡ 4m = 6 ➡ m = $1.5
