The formula for  that represent the area covered by a marsh A(n) is A(n)=11500(\frac{1}{4} )^n.

An exponential decay is given by the function:

y = abˣ

Where a is the initial value of y, b is a constant which is less than 1, y, x are variables.

Since the area covered by a marsh, A, starts at 11500 acres, hence a = 11500. Since the area drops by 1/4 each year for n years, hence:

A(n)=11500(\frac{1}{4} )^n

Therefore the formula for A(n) is A(n)=11500(\frac{1}{4} )^n

Factor the expression by finding the GCF. 16m2 − 12m
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

4m(4m-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

16m^2 − 12m

16 m^2 = 2*2*2*2*m*m

12m = 2*2*3*m

The greatest factor for 16m^2 and 12m is 2*2*m  or 4m

Factor out 4m

16 m^2 = 2*2*2*2*m*m = 4m(2*2m)=4m(4m)

12m = 2*2*3*m = 4m(3)

Factoring out 4m

16m^2 − 12m

4m(4m-3)

A middle school campus is shaped like a rectangle with a width of 1/4 mile and a length of 1/2 mile. A map of the campus has a w
igomit [66]

Answer:

A) 1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

#We first calculate the campus' area:

a=lw\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{2}\\=0.125 \ mi^2

#We then calculate the campus' map area in square ft:

A=lw\\\\=0.5 \times 1\\\\=0.5 ft^2

Ratio is a comparison between two dimensions:

Ratio=\frac{0.125}{0.5}\\\\=0.25\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\\\\=1:4

Hence, the ratio of the area in square miles of the campus to the area in square feet of the map is 1:4
