Answer:

Frida

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1000(2)^x

Mrs. Smith is saying that the number of termites will double each week, and Mr. Smith is saying that the number of termites will increase by 100% each week.

Let's just look at (2)^x. If we substitute numbers for x, we get:

x = 1 ⇒ 2
x = 2 ⇒ 4
x = 3 ⇒ 8
x = 4 ⇒ 16
x = 5 ⇒ 32
x = 6 ⇒ 64
x = 7 ⇒ 128

We can see that the output number doubles by 2, or in other words, increases by 100% of its value.

Therefore, Frida is correct in thinking that both Mr. and Mrs. Smith's interpretations are correct.

Need help badly don’t have answer to this problem.

NikAS [45]

There are a couple of ways to tackle this one, using the 45-45-90 rule or just using the pythagorean theore, let's use the pythagorean theorem.

the angle at A is 45°, and its opposite side is BC, the angle at C is 45° as well, and its opposite side is AB, well, the angles are the same, thus BC = AB.

hmmm le'ts call hmmm ohh hmmm say z, thus BC = AB = z.

$\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem}
\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2 \implies (6\sqrt{2})^2=z^2+z^2
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=\stackrel{6\sqrt{2}}{hypotenuse}\\
a=\stackrel{z}{adjacent}\\
b=\stackrel{z}{opposite}\\
\end{cases}\\\\\\ 6^2(\sqrt{2})^2=2z^2\implies 36(2)=2z^2\implies \cfrac{36(2)}{2}=z^2\implies 36=z^2
\\\\\\
\sqrt{36}=z\implies 6=z$

True or False?In Exercise,determine whether the statement is true or false given that f(x) = In x.if it is false,explain why or

kompoz [17]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$f(x) = \text{In } x$

The given statement is

$f(x - 2) = f(x) - f(2), x > 2$

Putting the values on the right side of the given statement

$f(x-2)\\=\text{ln }(x-2) \neq \text{ln }x - \text{ln }2$

Thus, the given statement is false.

This can be explained with the help of an example:

For x = 3

$f(x-2) = f(3-2) = f(1)\\=\text{ln }1 = 0\\f(x)-f(2)\\=\text{ln }3-\text{ln }2 \\=0.4054$

a ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. it’s height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function

lukranit [14]

Complete the square:

$h(t)=-16t^2+36t+9=-16\left(t^2-\dfrac94t\right)+9=-16\left(\left(t-\dfrac98\right)^2-\dfrac{81}{64}\right)+9$

$h(t)=-16\left(t-\dfrac98\right)^2+\dfrac{117}4$

That is, the graph of $h(t)$ is a parabola with vertex at $(t,h(t))=\left(\dfrac98,\dfrac{117}4\right)$ , meaning the ball reaches its maximum height of $\dfrac{117}4=29.25\,\mathrm{ft}$ after $t=\dfrac98=1.125\,\mathrm s$ of being thrown.
