Answer:

The equation i.e. used to denote the population after x years is:

P(x) = 490(1 + 0.200 to the power of x

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem could be modeled with the help of a exponential function.

The exponential function is given by:

P(x) = ab to the power of x

where a is the initial value.

and b=1+r where r is the rate of increase or decrease.

Here the initial population of the animals are given by: 490

i.e. a=490

Also, the rate of increase is: 20%

i.e. r=20%

i.e. r=0.20

Hence, the population function i.e. the population of the animals after x years is:

P(x) = 490(1 + 0.200 to the power of x

The assembly of a machine takes 3/4 hour there are 12 steps in the assembly process what is the average time for each step
S_A_V [24]
We can solve this two different ways. I'll do both, and you choose which one makes the most sense:
We can divide the fraction 3/4 by 12. remember, when we divide fractions, we flip the second fraction and change the sign to multiplication:
3/4 ÷12     [starting equation]
3/4 x 1/12  [flip and change sign]
3/48    [now reduce]
1/16 Each step takes 1/16 of an hour. 
1/16 x 60 = 3 3/4, or 3.75 minutes

Second way:
3/4 of an hour is 3/4 of 60...45 minutes.
Still, we divide out:
45 ÷ 12   [starting equation]
3 9/12    [divide with remainder]
3 3/4 minutes...3.75 minutes

For the graph of the function, identify the axis of symmetry, vertex and the formula for the function.
snow_tiger [21]
We know that this is a parabola, as the equation is denoted by the x^2 term.

We can see that the symmetry is seen at the point -0.5, therefore making the axis of symmetry the vertical line -0.5.

The vertex is found in quadrant three. In other words, it will shift by a negative value both horizontally and vertically. The vertex is therefore (-0.5, -0.5).

We can verify this in the equations by using the formula (-b/2a) to find the vertex. The only quadratic equation that satisfies this is -2x^2 + 2x -1.

To sum it up, the answers are:

-2x^2 + 2x - 1.

AoS: x = -0.5

Vertex: (-0.5, -0.5).

What assumption have you made in answering part b​
emmasim [6.3K]

You're assuming that this data set represents all of Mrs. Hassaan's pupils. Certain students could be missing from the histogram - for instance, there could be one or two students who missed the test, but for certain reasons will be taking a make-up exam. Their grade would not be recording in this data set, but they still contribute to the class size, and so would be unaccounted for here.
