Answer:
There were 10 flies originally
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have an exponential growth, we will be having a constant percentage of increase and we can set up the increase at any day using the following equation;
V = I(1+r)^d
where V is the number of flies on a particular day
I is the initial number of flies
r is the constant increase in percentage
and d is the number of days.
So we have for the second day;
60 = I(1+r)^2 ••••••(i)
For the fourth day, we have;
360 = I(1+r)^4 ••••••••(ii)
divide equation ii by i; we have;
360/60 = (1+r)^4/(1+r)^2
6 = (1+r)^2
(√6)^2 = (1+r)^2
1 + r = √6
r = √6 - 1
So we can substitute the value of r in any of the equations to get I which is the initial number of flies
Let’s use equation 1
60 = I(1 + r)^2
60 = I(1 + √6 -1)^2
60 = I(√6)^2
60 = 6I
I = 60/6
I = 10 flies
Answer:
5(2x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2(x - 6) + 4(2x + 1) + 3 ← distribute both parenthesis
= 2x - 12 + 8x + 4 + 3 ← collect like terms
= (2x + 8x) + (- 12 + 4 + 3)
= 10x + (- 5)
= 10x - 5 ← factor out 5 from each term
= 5(2x - 1) ← in factored form
Answer:
[-4/5]×3/7×15/16×[-14/9]= 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps :)
Yes, because it still have 3 sides.
