A population of insects grows exponentially, as shown in the table. Suppose the increase in population continues at the same rate.
from the given table
when x=0 , y=20
when x= 1 , y = 30
We use this information to find exponential growth equation
General form of exponential growth is
WE plug in the given values and find out value of a and b
when x=0 , y=20
20 = a
Now we find out b
when x= 1 , y = 30
divide both sides by 20
So exponential function becomes
Now we find the insect population at the end of week 11
We plug in 11 for x
Round the answer to nearest whole number
1730 is the insect population at the end of week 11
Given
A tea that is 22% jasmine is blended with a tea that is 13% jasmine
Find out the how many pounds of the 22% jasmine tea are used to make 10lb of tea that is 19.3% jasmine.
To proof
Let us assume that the a tea that is 22% jasmine is blended = a
Let us assume that the a tea that is 13% jasmine is blended = b
Total amount of tea made = 10lb
the equation be
a + b = 10
as given
jasmine tea are used to make 10lb of tea that is 19.3% jasmine.
write 22% in the decimal form
= 0.22
write 13% in the decimal form
= 0.13
write 19.3% in the decimal form
= 0.193
than the equation be
0.22a + 0.13b = 0.193 × 10
on simplify
22a + 13b = 193
two equation becomes
22a + 13b = 193 and a + b = 10
multiply a + b = 10 by 13 and subtracted from the 22a + 13b = 193
we get
22a - 13a + 13b -13b = 193 - 130
9a = 63
a = 7lb
put this value in the a + b = 10
we get
7 + b = 10
b = 3lb
Therefore the 22% jasmine tea are used to make 10lb of tea that is 19.3% jasmine is 7 lb .
Hence proved
