Answer:

The wingspan of a pelican is 1 8/15 feet longer than the wingspan of an eagle.

(1 whole 8/15 feet)

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll need to find a common denominator for the fractions. 15 is the lowest number divisible by both 5 and 3, so we'll use 15. For this problem, it's also easier to convert to improper fractions, in my opinion.

Pelican:

8 1/5 = 41/5

41/5 x 3/3 = 123/15

Eagle:

6 2/3 = 20/3

(20/3) x (5/5) = 100/15

Find the difference:

123/15 - 100/15 = 23/15 = 1 8/15

Please let me know if you have questions.

Exponential growth/decay problem 1
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) growth

b) $500

c) 6% = 0.06

d) f(x)=500(1.06)^x

e) $595.51

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />

<u>Part (a)</u>

Exponential GROWTH, since interest is applied to the account each year.

<u>Part (b)</u>

Initial amount = $500

<u>Part (c)</u>

Growth factor = 6% = 0.06 (in decimal form)

<u>Part (d)</u>

General form of exponential growth function:

f(x)=a(1+r)^x

where:

  • a = initial amount
  • r = rate of growth (in decimal form)
  • x = time (in years)

Given:

  • a = 500
  • r = 0.06

\implies f(x)=500(1+0.06)^x

\implies f(x)=500(1.06)^x

<u>Part (e)</u>

when x = 3

\begin{aligned}\implies f(3) & =500(1.06)^3\\ & = 595.51\: \sf(nearest\:hundredth)\end{aligned}
