Answer:

3.9125 × 10⁵² people

Step-by-step explanation:

A rumor starts with 3 people and the number of people who heard it doubles each day.

How many people would have heard the rumor after 20 days?

To calculate exponential growth, we use the formula:

y (t) = ae^{kt}

where;

a = value at the start =3

k = growth rate = 2×3 = 6

t = time = 20 days

y(t) = value of the population at the given time (t) =??

y(t) = 3 \times e^{6\times 20}

y(t) = 3.9125 × 10⁵² people

The value of x is . I cant find any answers on this
GenaCL600 [577]
The angle that is next to 9x should be 180 - 9x because it is a straight angle.

Since there are 180 degrees in an angle we can add up the values to 180 and solve for x.

180- 9x + 5x + 9 + x = 180
-3x = -9
x = 3

Hope this helped!
