Answer:

Part 9) The number of items on Emily's grocery list is 5 and the number of items on Bobby's grocery list is 13

Part 10) The height of the taller bookshelf is 4 feet and the height of the shorter bookshelf is 1 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 9)

Let

x ----> number of items on Emily's grocery list

x ----> number of items on Bobby's grocery list

we know that

y=2x+3 ----> equation A

x=y-8 ----> equation B

Solve by substitution

Substitute equation A in equation B

x=(2x+3)-8

solve for x

x=2x-5

2x-x=5

x=5

Find the value of y

y=2(5)+3=13

therefore

The number of items on Emily's grocery list is 5 and the number of items on Bobby's grocery list is 13

Part 10)

Let

x ----> the height of the taller bookshelf in feet

y ----> the height of the shorter bookshelf in feet

we have

x=5y-1 ----> equation A

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

To convert inches to feet divide by 12

so

60\ in=60/12=5\ ft

x+y=5 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

(5y-1)+y=5

solve for y

5y+y=5+1

6y=6

y=1\ ft

Find the value of x

x=5(1)-1=4\ ft

therefore

The height of the taller bookshelf is 4 feet and the height of the shorter bookshelf is 1 foot

The relationship between a bacteria population p, in thousands, and time d, in days, since it was measured to be 1,000 can be re
Assoli18 [71]

d = log₂p represents a logarithmic function, The expression log₂(10) tells us when the population reaches 10,000 and the equation 7 = log₂(128) tells us that the population reaches 128,000 in 7 days.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

Where a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplication factor.

Let p represent the bacteria population in thousand after d days.

Since each day, the bacteria population grows by a factor of 2, hence:

p=2^d

Hence, d = log₂p represents a logarithmic function

The expression log₂(10) tells us when the population reaches 10,000 and the equation 7 = log₂(128) tells us that the population reaches 128,000 in 7 days.
