This is a linear equation or y=mx+c. Where y is the number of mosquitos at a particular month and x is the number of months. We know the initial population of the mosquitoes is c=20. They population doubles every month so this is the gradient, m=2. Therefore the equation for the growth of the mosquito population is:
y = 2x + 20.
So after x= 10 months the mosquito population will be,
y=2(10)+20= 40.
There will be 40 mosquitoes after ten months.
therer sorry for the cropped pic btw lol
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Step 2 is incorrect. She added 4 and 2 first, but you are supposed to multiply and divide first. Then she multiplied 6 and 6, which is 36. Then she divided 36 and 2, which is 18, and then she subtracted 7, giving her 11. Step 2 is what threw the whole thing off.
Here is what Sandy should have done.
STEP 1: 6·4+2÷2-7
STEP 2: 24+1-7
STEP 3: 25-7
STEP 4: 18
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
The point is at about (4.5, 100).
Step-by-step explanation:
Minka's line is p = 22t, which has a y-intercept of 0.
Kenji's line is p = 50 + 11t, which has a y-intercept of 50.
Find the line with y-intercept at 0 and the line with y-intercept at 50. Follow the two lines until they intersect. The point of intersection is about (4.5, 100).
You can find this point by setting the two equations equal to each other:
22t = 50 + 11t
Subtract 11t from both sides.
11t = 50
t = 50/11 ≈ 4.545
Then you can find the p value for this point by plugging t = 4.545 into either equation.
p = 22(4.545) = 99.99
p = 50 + 11(4.545) = 99.995
On the graph the point is about (4.5, 100).
