This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
Its 25 because she learned the 10 recipes in 2 weeks so 4 weeks is 20 and 5 weeks is 25 if its wrong some how than I'm tired so don't blame me
Sorry i dont know the answer but i can help you with your other questions
The correct answer is x= -6 let me know if you want to know how I got that or if you needed to know if it is no solution/ infinite/etc..
It is just 18 :)It is just 18 :)
