Question:
A population of insects, in thousands, can be modeled using the function
[tex]p(t) = 1.75(0.97)^t[/tex], where t is time in months. Which statement best
describes the population of insects?
A. The population is decaying at a rate of 3% each month.
B. The population is decaying at a rate of 25% each month.
C. The population is growing at a rate of 75% each month.
D. The population is growing at a rate of 97% each month.
Answer:
A. The population is decaying at a rate of 3% each month.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p(t) = 1.75(0.97)^t[/tex]
Required
True statement about the function
From the options, we can see that we are to answer the question on the basis of decay and growing rates.
An exponential form is:
[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]
Compare to [tex]p(t) = 1.75(0.97)^t[/tex]
[tex]b= 0.97\\[/tex]
If [tex]b > 1[/tex], then [tex]b = 1 + r[/tex] r represents growth rate
else, [tex]b= 1-r[/tex] r represents decay rate
Since b < 0.97:
[tex]0.97= 1-r[/tex]
[tex]r = 1 - 0.97[/tex]
[tex]r = 0.03[/tex]
[tex]r = 3\%[/tex]
[tex]r = 0.03[/tex]

Your math test has 38 questions and is worth 200 points. The test consists
of multiple-choice questions worth 4 points each and open-ended questions
worth 20 points each. How many of each type of question are there?
... please solve this using if systems of equations
Answer:
Number of multiple-choice questions = x = 35 questions
Number of open-ended questions = y = 3 questions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Number of multiple-choice questions = x
Number of open-ended questions = y
x + y = 38 (1)
4x + 20y = 200 (2)
From (1)
x = 38 - y
Substitute x = 38 - y into (2)
4x + 20y = 200
4(38 - y) + 20y = 200
152 - 4y + 20y = 200
- 4y + 20y = 200 - 152
16y = 48
y = 48/16
y = 3
Substitute y = 3 into (1)
x + y = 38
x + 3 = 38
x = 38 - 3
x = 35
Number of multiple-choice questions = x = 35 questions
Number of open-ended questions = y = 3 questions
What's the answer to x^2-6x-8?
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)(x-2)=0
If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0
the entire expression will be equal to 0
Set the first factor equal to 0 and solve
x=4
The final solution is all the values that make
(x-4)(x-2)=0
x=4,2
explain how you can use absolute value to tell whether the fisherman or the end of his fishing line is farther from the surface of the water.
Answer:

Find the area of the hexagon. i will mark brainliest and pls explain.
Answer:
C. 150√3Step-by-step explanation:
Radius of the inscribed circle is the apothem of the hexagon.
Apothem (a) and half of the side (s) make a 30-60-90 right triangle.
The ratio of the legs, as per property of 30-60-90 triangle:
s : a = 1 : √3 ⇒ s : 5√3 = 1 : √3 ⇒ s = 5Half the side is s = 5 units, then side of the hexagon is 10 units.
The area of the hexagon:
A = 1/2Pa, P- perimeter, a- apothemA = 1/2(6*10)*(5√3) = 150√3Correct choice is C

-5 = 53
-1 = 13
0 = 3
1= -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Not sure if this is right, but all I did was plugged -10 X + 3 into the Y = on my calculator and then graphed and checked the table, I looked at the x value and then the Y.
Step-by-step explanation:
given equation :- y = -10x + 3
1)when x = -5
y = -10x + 3
y = -10 (-5) + 3
= 50 + 3
= 53
2)when x = -1
y = -10x + 3
y = -10(-1) + 3
= 10 + 3
= 13
3) when x = 0
y = -10x + 3
y = -10(0) +3
= 0+ 3
= 3
4) when x = 1
y = -10x + 3
y = -10(1) +3
= -10 + 3
= -7
You earn $44.55 in 9 hours. Your friend earns $51.00 in 12 hours. How much do you AND your friend earn in 20 hours? HINT- You need to calculate how much you both make in 1 hour first! 1 point
Answer:
I earn $99. my friend earns $85. We both earn $184
Step-by-step explanation:
Steps
Find the amount earned per hour for each friend multiply the value gotten by 20 hours Add the amountAmount i earn per hour = 44.55 / 9 = $4.95
Amount my friend earns = 51 /12 = $4.25
Amount earned in 20 hours
4.95 x 20 = 99
4.25 x 20 = 85

Find X .Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
With reference angle x
perpendicular (p) = 11
hypotenuse (h) = 18
Now
sin x = p / h
sin x = 11 / 18
x = sin ^-1( 11/ 18)
x = 37.66
x = 37.7
Awnser: 37.7
Sin: Oppostie/Hypotonuse
11/18=sin(x)
sin^-1(11/18)= 37.6698...

Paul is growing a rectangular rose garden. His area is 5x2+ 8x +3. What are the dimensions of his rectangle?
Answer:
[tex]Length = 5x + 3[/tex]
[tex]Width = x +1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Area = 5x^2 + 8x + 3[/tex]
Required
Determine the dimensions
To do this, we simply factorize the given expression.
[tex]Area = 5x^2 + 8x + 3[/tex]
Expand
[tex]Area = 5x^2 + 5x +3x+ 3[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]Area = 5x(x + 1) +3(x+ 1)[/tex]
Factor out x + 1
[tex]Area = (5x +3) (x+ 1)[/tex]
Area is calculated as:
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
So:
[tex]Length = 5x + 3[/tex]
[tex]Width = x +1[/tex]

-1/3+y=1
Answer:
y=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
.....................
Answer to equation:
y = 1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
for this problem we see that we are starting below 0 and going up to one, all we have to do is solve for the distance between the two numbers, as shown
(-1/3) + 1/3 = 0
0 + 1 = 1
now to simplify, we just add the total amount of change between the two numbers
1/3 + 1 = 1 1/3
NOTE: this can be done by just adding the absolute value of each number if one is a negative number and one is a positive number, wich is basically what i did
-1/3 = |1/3|
1 = |1|
|1/3| + |1| = |1 1/3| or total amount of change
but if you are working with two positive or two negative numbers, then subtract the lesser of the two absolute values as so
-2 + x = -5
-2 = |2|
-5 = |5|
|5| - |2| = |3|
3 = amount of change
3 = x
-2 + -3 = -5

A cylinder has a radius of 6 meters. Its volume is 180 pi. cubic meters.
Find the height of the cylinder. *
Answer:
h = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for volume of a cylinder:
V = πr²h
r = 6
V = 180π
V = πr²h
180π = π6²h
180π = 36πh
(180π)/(36π) = h
h = (180)/(36)
h = 5

Storage units are numbered 1 through 50. What is the probability that the operator will choose a unit that is not a multiple of 8?
Answer:
22/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiples of 8 betwen 1 - 50 =
8
16
24
32
40
48
there are 6 multiples of 8
Numbers that are not multiples of 8 = 50 - 6 = 44
Probability the operator will choose a unit that is not a multiple of 8 = 44/50
Expressing in simpler terms = 22/25
