Answer:

133.33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Principal = $500

Interest rate (r) = 1.5% = 0.015

Triple amount of principal = $500 * 3 = $1500 = final amount (A)

Number of years (t) =?

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + rt)

1500 = 500(1 + 0.015t)

1500 / 500 = 1 + 0.015t

3 = 1 + 0.015t

3 - 1= 0.015t

2 = 0.015t

2 / 0.015 = 0.015t / 0.015

133.333 = t

Every female chicken lays 4 eggs. What is the constant of proportionality for the ratio of eggs to female chickens? 4 3
satela [25.4K]

Since every female chicken lays 4 eggs, if you have one chicken you have 4 eggs, if you have two chicken you have 8 eggs, and so on.

We can even build a little table to show some values:

\begin{array}{c|c}1&4\\2&8\\3&12\\4&16\\5&20\\\vdots & \vdots\\n& 4n\end{array}

So, as you can see, the ratio between the number of eggs and the number of female chicken is 4.

Find the difference. express the answer in scientific notation. (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 sup
Georgia [21]

The difference between (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) is 1. 43 × 10^11

<h3>How to determine the notation</h3>

Given the expression

(5. 29 × 10^11) - (3. 86 × 10 ^11)

First, find the common factor

10^11 ( 5. 29 - 3. 86)

Then substract the values within the bracket

10^11 (1. 43)

Multiply with the factor, we have

⇒1. 43 × 10^11

Thus, the difference between (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) is 1. 43 × 10^11

lilavasa [31]
If I'm understanding this correctly:

Tiger consumes 18lb/day of food. If we want to calculate how much is consumed in 28 days, assuming that rate is consistent, the answer is 18*28 = 504lb of food.
