The function f(x) = 20(3)x represents the growth of a fish population every year in a local lake. Jesse wants to manipulate the

lukranit [14]

In the equation, 20 is the original number of fish so we do not change that value to compensate for growth every half year. We will have to change the rate of growth, i.e, 3 and bring 1/2 into its power,
f(x) = 20(3)^(x/2) is correct

Given:

diamong [38]

Answer:

10-5 $\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the attached figure, right angled $\triangle MDL$ has an inscribed circle whose center is $I$ .

We have joined the incenter $I$ to the vertices of the $\triangle MDL$ .

Sides MD and DL are equal because we are given that $\angle M = \angle L = 45 ^\circ.$

Formula for area of a $\triangle = \dfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height$

As per the figure attached, we are given that side a = 10.

Using pythagoras theorem, we can easily calculate that side ML = 10 $\sqrt{2}$

Points P,Q and R are at $90 ^\circ$ on the sides ML, MD and DL respectively so IQ, IR and IP are heights of $\triangle$ MIL, $\triangle$ MID and $\triangle$ DIL.

Also,

$\text {Area of } \triangle MDL = \text {Area of } \triangle MIL +\text {Area of } \triangle MID+ \text {Area of } \triangle DIL$

$\dfrac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 10 = \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times r \times 10\sqrt2\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac {10}{2+\sqrt2} \\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{5\sqrt2}{\sqrt2+1}\\\text{Multiplying and divinding by }(\sqrt2 +1)\\\Rightarrow r = 10-5\sqrt2$
