Answer:

y = 4\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

y² = 8² + 4² = 64 + 16 = 80 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = \sqrt{80} = \sqrt{16(5)} = 4\sqrt{5} ← exact value

A population of 400 beetles grows by 5% each week. How can the beetle population be determined after a number of weeks, w?
Helga [31]
For this case we have an equation of the form:
 f (w) = A * (b) ^ w
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 w: number of weeks
 Substituting values we have:
 f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w
 Answer:
 the beetle population can be determined after a number of weeks, w, with the following function:
 
f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w
