Answer:
0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth equation is expressed as;
S(t) = S0e^kt
S(t) is the number of stores after t years
S0 is the initial number of stores
If a chain of retail computer stores opened 2 stores in its first year of operation then at t = 1, S(t) = 2. Substitute into the equation;
2 = S0e^k(1)
2 = S0e^k .... 1
Also if after 8 years of operation, the chain consisted of 206 stores, this means at t = 8, S(t) = 206. Substitute into the equation;
206 = S0e^k(1)
206 = S0e^8k .... 2
Next is to calculate the value of k
Divide equation 2 by 1;

Hence the value of k to the nearest hundredth is 0.66
Answer:
- <em> 15</em>
- <em> 42,250</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is,

where,
P = the total production of apples,
x = the number of trees added.
As the quadratic function has a negative leading coefficient, so it will open downward and at the vertex the value of function is maximum.
The vertex will be at 
The value of the function will be maximum at,

Putting the values,

So at x=15 or for 15 number of trees the production will be ,maximum.
Putting x=15 in f(x) will yield the maximum production of apples.

Answer:
8xy + 65
Step-by-step explanation:
8(xy + 8) + 1.
8 x 8=
64 + 1=
65 (8xy + 65)

LINE THE NUMBERS UP AND IT WILL MAKE SENSE
Answer:
$659.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Since its 25 percent off we need to see what it would look as a decimal
1-.25=.75
879times.75= 659.25
Answer:
SA=390
Step-by-step explanation:
9*14=126
126+126=252
14*3=42
42+42=84
9*3=27
27+27=54
252+84+54=390
