With no limiting factors to the growth of the plants, the number of  months have passed since the plants were first introduced is 23.1.

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

Exponential function is the function in which the function growth or decay with the power of the independent variable. The curve of the exponential function depends on the value of its variable.

A type of plant is introduced into an ecosystem and quickly begins to take over.

A scientist counts the number of plants after m months and develops the equation to model the situation, which is given as,

p(m)=19.3(1089)^m

Most recently, the scientist counted 138 plants.

138=19.3(1089)^m\\(1089)^m=7.15

Taking log both sides of the equation,

\log(1.089)^m=\log7.15\\m\log(1.089)=\log(7.15)\\m=\dfrac{\log7.15}{\log(1.089)}\\m\approx23.1

Thus, with no limiting factors to the growth of the plants, the number of  months have passed since the plants were first introduced is 23.1.

Evaluate -6(x-2y) when x= -3 and y= -5<br> a. -42<br> b. 80<br> c. -80<br> d. -16
Vinil7 [7]
Simply substitute x for -3 and y for -5, creating the equation shown below:
     
     -6 (-3 - 2(-5) )
Now that you have your values set up, now you can do the math by starting off with Multiplying -2 by -5, which will get you 10. 

Now that you have the parenthesis simplified in the parenthesis, you can use the distributive property by multiplying all the numbers with -6, like so:
-6(-3+10)= 18 - 60, which simplifies to -42, in which (A) is your answer.

The sum of a number, 1/6 of that number, 2 1/2 of that number, and 7 is 12 1/2. Find the number.
Tema [17]

Answer:

2 \frac{1}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The question state that;  the sum of a number, 1/6 of that number, 2 1/2 of that number, and 7 is 12 1/2. Find the number.

First, we need to interpret and represent this statement mathematically

Let n be the number.

The sum means 'addition'

1/6 of that number is  1/6 of n = 1/6 × n  = \frac{n}{6}

2 1/2 of that number is 2 1/2 of n = 2 1/2 × n  = 5/2 × n = \frac{5n}{2}

So the question says that, when we add; \frac{n}{6} ,  \frac{5n}{2}  and 7 all together, the value is 12 1/2

That is;

\frac{n}{6}  + \frac{5n}{2} + 7 = 12 1/2

\frac{n}{6}  + \frac{5n}{2} + 7  = \frac{25}{2}         ( changing 12 1/2 to improper fraction will give  \frac{25}{2} )

So we can now go ahead and solve for n

\frac{n}{6}  + \frac{5n}{2} + 7  = \frac{25}{2}  

subtract 7 from both-side of the equation

\frac{n}{6}  + \frac{5n}{2}   =  \frac{25}{2}   -   7

\frac{n + 15n}{6}  =   \frac{25 -14}{2}

\frac{16n}{6}      =    \frac{11}{2}

\frac{16n}{6}  can be reduced to give us \frac{8n}{3}

\frac{8n}{3}   =   \frac{11}{2}

Cross multiply

8n × 2  = 11× 3

16n = 33

Divide both-side of the equation by 16

\frac{16n}{16}    =   \frac{33}{16}

(On the left-hand side of the equation, 16 will cancel-out 16 leaving us with just, while  on the right-hand side of the equation 33 will be divided by 16)

n =  \frac{33}{16}     = 2\frac{1}{16}

Therefore the number is  2\frac{1}{16}

Allison wants to buy a game that costs $120. She has saved $30 for the game. She earns $5 per hour babysitting.
sergey [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Cost of game = $120</em>

<em>Current savings = $30</em>

<em>Rate for babysitting (per hour) = $5/hour</em>

<em></em>

<em>So, required equation is :-</em>

<em>120 = 5h + 30</em>

<em>5h = 90</em>

<em>h = 18</em>

<em></em>

<em>She must make $90 by babysitting for 18 more hours.</em>
