Answer:
about 520,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Following directions, we evaluate the equation by putting the value where the variable is and doing the arithmetic.
__
The value of x will be the number of days between May 26 and May 12. That value is ...
x = 26 -12 = 14
Then the number of mosquitos is estimated to be ...
y = 230,000(1.06^14) ≈ 520,008
About 520,000 mosquitos will inhabit the city on May 26.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Typically, an "estimate" is one or two significant figures. So, 520,000 is a reasonable estimate. 520,008 has more precsision than can be justified.

Answer:
a. cone. Since it's the only shape with one base and a vertex not on the same plane
Two answers are possible.
One is with the repetition of digits.
The other is without repetition of digits.
ANSWER 1: With Repetition
Numbers: 1,2,4,5,7,8
There are 4 digits __ __ __ __
1st digit can be filled by any of the 6 numbers.
Similarly 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits.
Hence each digit will have 6 possibilities.
Therefore no.of 4 digit numbers that can be formed are 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1296
ANSWER 2: Without Repetition
4 digits __ __ __ __
Now the first digit can be filled by any of the six numbers. Therefore there are 6 possibilities
The second digit will have only 5 possibilities as one of the numbers gets used up by the 1st digit.
Similarly the 3rd and 4th digits will have 4 and 3 possibilities respectively.
Therefore no.of 4 digit numbers that can be formed are 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 = 360
Answer: 48
=================================================
Explanation:
The keyword "of" means multiply
150% converts to the decimal form 1.5; you move the decimal point two spots to the left to go from percent form to decimal form
Putting those two facts together lead to...
150% of 32 = 1.5*32 = 48
----------------
Another approach:
x% = x/100
150% = 150/100 = 1.5
150% of 32 = 1.5*32 = 48
The last step is identical as before, but the conversion of 150% is slightly different this time.
------------------
Yet another approach:
100% of anything is itself
So 100% of 32 is 32
The extra 50% means we take half of 32 to get 16. Then we add that onto the 32 to get 16+32 = 48
